Bees. Stings. Pollen.

Can those allergic to bee stings take bee pollen? :confused:

I would go to a place where they can test you safely.

I think it depends. My best friend is highly allergic and carries an Epi-pen with her. She won't touch bee pollen. I'm mildly allergic (gets worse with every sting) and I take bee pollen. Remember, it's the venom you're allergic to...are you allergic to honey?

I wouldn't.

Yeah, they say that if you are allergic to bee stings that you should stay away from bee products.

Hi Rawvee,
I'm not super allergic, just take a benadryl if I get stung.
And I use honey often will no ill effects. Thanks for the post.

Ghost, Julie & Bella, Thanks for the info. I'll try to find more info just to make sure!

I have to carry an Epi-Pen for my bee sting allergy. I have no problems with honey. I occassionally have bee pollen and have yet to have a problem. I don't use it a lot just in case.
