MULTIFUNCTIONAL WATER WITH BEE POLLEN
This is a world-unique product through the new Active Water category, which is a completely calorie-free and natural water drink with fermented bee pollen from Swedish honeybees mixed in a high-quality Norrland water.
This provides a functional, completely calorie-free drink with an unusually large number of natural nutrients in one and the same bottle with so-called Clean Label label without sugar, artificial additives or E-number markings.
Only water, pure bee pollen and natural aromas with their Swedish origins, made in Sweden.
A good functional water with the world's largest and oldest collection of lots of natural lactic acid bacteria that nature itself has created.
Energy from the Swedish nature and all this is completely natural!
The process behind the production is a new, world-unique Swedish patent which partly consists of freeing the shell from the bee pollen and fermenting and extracting a completely natural extract from the bee pollen itself.
This is exactly the H13 Microbiome® which is basically 13 pieces of lactic acid bacteria from Swedish honeybees that two researchers from the Faculty of Medicine at Lund University have found in bees.
Behind the discovery and patents of the 13 bacteria are more than 18 years of research and many dissertations that strengthen the good properties and the well-being these can create in the body.
52 Active Water has global exclusivity to use fermented bee pollen in drinks, which is a protected patent solution (H13 Microbiome®).
The bee pollen is mixed with aromas that are completely natural and an exquisitely good water with qualitative water values that are naturally found in the water, which is also another important part as a flavor carrier in the drink to keep a fresh and high taste experience.
The water originally comes from Ljungdalen in the Jämtland mountains and it flows downstream of the river Ljungan and is drained through the mineral-rich sandbanks in the river's valleys. There, it is filtered in a natural way in its various sediments before it reaches the underground "lakes" under Ljungan which act as nature's own reservoir and is pumped up in Njurunda and VASA Bryggeri to be prepared with the bee pollen.
The category is a completely natural combination of energy drink and functional water without unnecessary additives and neither added sugar nor artificial sweeteners.
The necessary sweetness is extracted naturally from bee pollen and gives the water a harmonious sweetness.
It is a healthier alternative to many other sweetened and artificial drinks out there and instead contains nutrients from nature.
The product is not an allergen and the goal is to develop a product that can properly and truly claim as "clean" a content declaration as possible, so-called Clean Label without E-number-based additives or other artificial inputs.
52 Active Water can be drunk whenever. As a thirst quencher, with food, during exercise or simply when it suits and thirst and desire strikes.
A bottle of 52 Active Water contains, among other things, 1 billion good lactic acid bacteria.
In addition to beneficial lactic acid bacteria, many other natural nutrients are extracted from bee pollen.
Just 52 Active Water contains 52 active nutrients, but best of all, it can contain up to 250 nutrients per 50 centiliter bottle. It depends entirely on which flowers the bees have tokened.
Some of the 52 nutrients declared per bottle are completely natural and come precisely from bee pollen and consist of:
-
Vitamins (Among others B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, B9, B12, A, C, D, E, K, Biotin)
-
Minerals (Iron, Calcium, Magnesium, Zinc, Selenium, Copper, Potassium, Phosphorus, Magnesium, Chromium, Sulphur)
-
Amino acids (among others Alanine, Glycine, Aspartic acid, Glutamic acid, Proline, Serine, Arginine, Cysteine, Lysine, Leucine, Valine, Isoleucine, Tryptophan, Metoinine, Phenylalanine, Threonine)
-
Enzymes (Amylase, Proteases, Lipases, Cellulase, Catalase)
WHAT IS BEE POLLEN?
Bee pollen has recently become increasingly common and appreciated as a daily health food.
A completely natural way to make use of nature's fantastic sources of nutrients.
Bee pollen, or pollen granules as it is also called, is full of vitamins, minerals and enzymes".
Bee pollen is very nutrient dense and is considered by many saved users to be a superfood of rank, and one of nature's most complete raw materials.
Approximately 35% of bee pollen consists of proteins, and is thus richer in protein than beef per 100 grams of raw material.
In addition to that, it also contains several of the enzymes and coenzymes that the body needs, as well as a higher concentration of vitamins and minerals than fruit and vegetables.
Among other things, it is rich in B vitamins, iron and zinc.
Bee pollen has also begun to be studied for its content of antibacterial substances, which can be interesting for our immune system.
Several proponents believe that it can help in the fight against resistant bacteria.
Pollen granules, colloquially known as bee pollen, are clumps of plant pollen that bees carry on their hind legs.
Pollen contains the nutrients that bees need and want to eat. When these microscopic pollens clump together with nectar, bee pollen is formed.

WHAT IS MICROBIOME®?
The H13 microbiome is a group of 13 kinds of cooperating lactic acid bacteria species that were the unknown essence of the ancient folk medicine honey.
The 13 patented lactic acid bacteria derived from honeybees and included in the H13 microbiome are:
-
9 Lactobacilli; L. kunkeei Fhon2, L. apinorum Fhon13, L. mellifer Bin4, L. mellis Hon2, L. melliventris Hma8, L. kimbladii Hma2, L. helsingborgensis Bma5, L. kullabergensis Biut2 and L. apis Hma11.
-
4 Bifidobacteria; B. coryneforme Bma6, B. asteroides Bin2, Hma3 and Bin7.
-
After fermentation, the honey in a natural way without additives provides a slightly nutty, good and light sweetness in the functional drink, which is not an added sugar or sweetener but is found completely naturally in the bee pollen extract
-
The bottles contain natural fibers and nutrients from honey and bee pollen, which provide the bacteria with nutrition (prebiotics) and protection.
-
Bee pollen is rich in antioxidants, which promote overall health.
-
It is the bees' lactic acid bacteria that give the folk medicine, honey its original effect. The lactic acid bacteria are grown on their natural nutrients that they are used to, making them maximally strong. They are then added together, alive and active in the H13 microbiome.
-
There are many theses, not least from the research group at the Faculty of Medicine at Lund University on the positive properties and health effects of bee pollen on the human body.
