Introduction Apitherapy refers to the medicinal use of substances produced by bees. Since the times of the ancient Egyptians, people have reported the benefits of bee venom for the treatment of many diseases. In addition to the bee venom, other beehive products that have been utilized in health conditions include honey, pollen, propolis, and royal jelly. The first scientific clinical trials were published in 1864, and there are now over 1500 published scientific articles dealing with Bee Venom Traditionally, bee venom was used in treatments by allowing live bees to sting the arthritis patients in their painful areas. An interesting observation regarding bee stings is that beekeepers seldom suffer from arthritis or cancer. Some arthritis sufferers have also experienced cures from joint pain after they became beekeepers.

Later on I decided to use bee venom cream when I got bronchitis. I rubbed it in my chest and made sure the area of application was warmed up as to instructions. The cough began to grow down and after a few applications of the cream, all signs of bronchitis totally disappeared. I think ApiVENZ Relief is a great break through, miraculous all natural remedy for any kind of inflammation. Serge, Taupaki, Auckland ----------------------------------------------- Margaret,

The cream is just terrific and very helpful and on top of that has a really pleasant smell. Thank you very much. Maria,

I could not believe that, but just after a few applications of the cream, combined with taking Honey, I sad "good bye" to the pain, and that was the first night in many months, that I slept comfortably.

I am very happy to use Bee venom products developed by Dr Nikolaev. Tatiana, Auckland General information about New Zealand bee venom Honeybee venom is a well-known pharmacologically active product of the hive. It is a product of the secretion activity of a special gland in the body of working honeybees. Freshly collected bee venom is a transparent, light-yellow liquid with a bitter burning taste and a strong smell. Bee venom is a unique multi-component complex, which contains about 18 biologically active compounds, some of which are practically impossible to get synthesized by chemical methods (Fig.1). Nowadays the majority of biologically active compounds are well studied, their useful properties are discovered (Krilov, 1995; Schmidt, 1996)
Fig. 1. The composition of the bee venom of Apis mellifera The most powerful bee venom ingredients are:
1. Melittin
- (55-58 %) of weight, in comparison with other overseas bee venom
( 40-50 % ) – the most potent anti-inflammatory peptide
when tested in rats with arthritis (Nature, Nov. 1974)
2. Peptide
401 - 2 % - strong anti-inflammatory peptide leads to the
release of histamine which creates the signs of inflammation
(swelling, itching, redness, warmth) is the most powerful seizure-inducing
agent known to man when injected into brain (not cross blood
brain barrier) increases short-term memory in rats (maze test) 3. Phospholipase
A2 - 10 % -12 % (in comparison with other overseas
bee venom 12-20%) - the most allergenic enzyme with hemolytic
properties
4. Apamin - a peptide affecting nerve cells.
5. Cardio peptides - anti-arrhythmic agent.
6. Hyaluronidase - dissolves glue between cells and many other powerful tissue proteins. Loosens the glue (a substance called hyaluronic acid) which connects cells thus making the tissue or extra-cellular space more permeable. This facilitates the delivery of healing substances to and the elimination of waste or toxic substances from a damaged area. 7. Dopamine - neurotransmitter. A neurotransmitter that increases motor activity. It is deficient in Parkinson’s patients and excessive in psychotic patients treated with neuroleptic drugs. Dopamine, along with serotonin and other catecholamines are implicated as factors in major depression. 8. Adolapin - neurotransmitter. Has
an analgesic effect How does bee venom work? Bee venom peptides have systemic action: anti-inflammatory, anti-fungal, anti-bacterial, anti-pyretic, stimulating vascular permeability. There are different mechanisms of bee venom action in the body - indirectly through hormone system and directly on cardiovascular system.
1. Indirectly, through hormone system. The healing effect of Bee venom is caused by its stimulating the function of adrenal gland indirectly through hypophysis. Due to this stimulation process more adrenal hormones such as cortisone and hydrocortisone are generated in blood. These hormones provide healing effect, increasing resistibility of the body against various unfavorable factors. But bee venom healing action not only connected with stimulation of adrenal gland
2. Bee venom effects cardiovascular system directly. it
widens blood vessels and decreases blood pressure.
bee
venom is very effective against hypertension.
reduces
blood coagulability and increases hemoglobin level.
Russian scientists have discovered that bee venom contributes to capillary vessels and small artery distention, increasing the blood surge to the organs and promoting metabolism improvement. Since bee venom increases the content of hemoglobin and leukocytes in blood and decreases blood thickness and coagulability, it can be very helpful for people having susceptibility to trombophlebitis. Bee venom promotes decrease of cholesterol content in blood, provides tonic effect for a heart muscle, and decreases blood pressure. It improves patients overall state of health, appetite and sleep, increases vitality. It is good for body strengthening and pain relief.( Krylov,1995 )
In the modern world honey bee venom has found wide uses in treatment of various kind of rheumatism. BVT applies as part of an overall approach, which includes nutrition, vitamins supplements, minerals and exercises. A partial list of medical studies reported that bee venom cream was used in the following cases:
Rheumatologic:
acute and chronic bursitis, ankylotic spondylitis deformans, fibrositis, juvenile arthritis, lateral epicondylitis ( tennis elbow ), myalgia, osteoarthritis, poly-arthritis deformans, psoriatic arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, traumatic arthritis
Bee venom therapy can be useful in both rheumatoid and osteoarthritis, helping with both pain and swelling. In the case of rheumatoid arthritis, rheumatoid nodules can lessen in size. Other connective tissue diseases such as scleroderma have been (anecdotally) helped by BVT. Even systemic inflammations not related to joints, such as ulcerative colitis or even asthma, may warrant a trial of bee venom. This is presumably due to stimulation of endogenous cortisol through the hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal axis.
