Natural Factors Bee Propolis Throat Spray delivers 0.15 mL of a 1:4 propolis tincture in every spray. Source of antioxidants for the maintenance of good health.
What is bee propolis?
Propolis is a sticky, resinous material that honeybees (Apis mellifera) make by mixing plant resins with their own secretions and beeswax. In the hive it serves as a sealant for gaps and cracks. A tincture is made by steeping the raw propolis in liquid to draw out its compounds, and the 1:4 ratio describes how much propolis went into the finished liquid.

I was very disappointed in this spray as it did not say anywhere in the reviews that it was alcohol based. I find it very hard to tolerate

Terrible & Dangerous!
I'm shocked that Natural Factors would even produce this horrible product. Not only does it smell and taste rancid, if you spray it, whatever it touches it dries with a wax like coating. I sprayed it on finger and could not get it off. I sprayed it in the sink and I could not get it off. I destroyed an entire Magic Eraser scrubbing it off the sink, and they want you to spray this in your mouth!!?? Dangerous! So I called NF and they said this isn't even supposed to be sold in Canada because it contains Ethanol. Will be asking for a refund. Terrible product.

Bee Propolis throat spray
Found this product unusable and wish to return it. The spray was so acrid it burned the skin on the inside of my mouth & lips. I have used this product before and never had this reaction.. Also the spray is very dark... almost black
