Royal jelly (RJ), which is secreted by the hydropharyngeal gland of worker bees, has a broad spectrum of beneficial physiological properties. It is primarily used to nourish worker bees as well as queen bees. The antioxidant properties of RJ are attributed to proteins and/or peptides, which are potentially associated with the amelioration of fatigue. Muscle-enhancing performance can also be increased with the supply of oxygen in conjunction with RJ. RJ has also been demonstrated to improve erythropoiesis. These results have been confirmed in clinical trial results. However more clinical evidence is required to confirm its efficacy. Overall, RJ is safe and efficacious in a variety of functional beverages to boost energy and performance.
