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.

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.
Esta guía está dirigida a los amantes de la fauna que deseen conocer mejor el mundo de los himenópteros, concretamente de los insectos "que pican". Naturalmente, en primer lugar aparecen las abejas, a cuya compleja y fascinante fisiología se dedica una gran parte, seguidas de sus otros muchos "primos", es decir, las abejas no melíferas; luego vienen parientes aún más lejanos, como los abejorros, las avispas y los avispones, y por último aquellos insectos que hacen todo lo posible por parecerse a ellos, y aquellos de entre los hexápodos de los que a menudo se cree erróneamente que tienen aguijón, y por lo tanto son peligrosos. Extremadamente rica en información entomológica, histórica y etológica, con fotografías y dibujos nítidos, esta guía puede leerse cómodamente en el sillón de casa, pero también puede ser una herramienta útil para quienes quieran o necesiten aprender a distinguir entre los distintos insectos en el campo, enseñándoles a evitar las picaduras y, si es necesario, a impedir que produzcan los efectos más peligrosos o indeseables.
