By Paolo Faccioli Montaonda Editions What a merely scientific or merely zootechnical view makes it difficult for us to understand about bees
A great deal is heard about bees and the environment, and there are many who have approached beekeeping in recent years with curiosity and expectation. Few, on the other hand - among them the author - have an all-round experience of it, gained through decades of passionate beekeeping experience, readings, discussions, experiences and experiments, comparisons, conferences and travels. In short: Paolo Faccioli is one of the few authorized to push further into an unknown land where the beekeeper often dares not venture, despite having a sense and foreboding of it. Faccioli reconsiders his and our relationship with the tiny insect, in light of the most up-to-date environmental and ethical situations: indeed, confronting it from within, and viscerally. Here we find laid bare the fundamental knots of the human-apiculturist-animal relationship by proposing a florilegium of personal reflections that have arisen in the study of those thinkers who articulate one of the most lively and essential debates in contemporary philosophy, the one that goes under the very reductive label of animalism.

This guide is aimed at wildlife lovers who want to learn more about the world of Hymenoptera, specifically those insects "that sting." First come, of course, the bees, to whose complex and fascinating physiology a large part is devoted, followed by the many other "cousins," i.e., non-melliferous bees; then follow even more distant relatives, such as bumblebees, wasps and hornets, and finally those insects that do everything to appear similar to them, and how many among the hexapods are often mistakenly believed to be equipped with stingers, and therefore dangerous. Very rich in entomological, historical and ethological information, with clear photographs and drawings, this guide can be read comfortably in the armchair, but it can be a useful tool for those who would or should learn to distinguish among the various insects in the field, then teaching how to avoid stings and, if necessary, how to avert them from producing the most dangerous or undesirable effects.

ORGANIC DRY FLOWER POLLEN 125 g Country of origin: ITALY Pollen is used in phytotherapy as a restorative because it is a complete food. Rich in proteins (6-30%); amino acids (15-22%); lipids (1-10%); unsaturated fatty acids and sterols; carbohydrates(up to 50% in the dry state); simple sugars (4-10%); water (12-20%); vitamins (vit.C, A, ac.pantothenic, ac.folic, B complex); enzymes;hormones; antibiotic factors; mineral salts (iron, calcium, magnesium potassium and zinc) and flavonoids. In its cell nucleus, pollen holds the secret of life: the DNA and RNA molecules that establish the vital function of all cells. Thanks to these substances it strengthens and nourishes the entire organism, combats states of mental and physical fatigue proving to be an excellent adaptogen and antioxidant. Used by athletes to increase resistance to fatigue and muscular exertion, it finds use in the physical activity of sportsmen for the supply of carbohydrates and lipids but above all as a source of protein and essential amino acids, superior to those of meat, eggs and cheese, which justify the tonic, anabolic properties given by the presence of 20 of the 22 amino acids used by the human body.
