What is Bee Pupa

Bee larvae (5-6 days old) and bee pupa (8-14 days old) are the "child" forms of honeybee. They starts the life as an egg which is laid by the queen in the wax cell of a hive. During its 14 days as a pupa, it was sealed in a capped cell and grows into a worker (female) bee, emerging on the 20th day. Worker bees build the comb from wax extruded from glands under their abdomen. They clean, defend and repair the hive. They gather nectar, pollen and propolis to feed the larvae, the queen and the drones. They also ventilate, cool and heat the hive.
In China, people have long eaten bee larvae. Also, in particular areas of Japan (Nagano, Gifu and Yamanashi Prefectures). People locate the honeycomb by an original method and dig it from underground to find bee larvae as a source of food, from the ground wasp (or black hornet). People take it as source of food because bee pupa was high in protein and carbohydrate. Bee pupa also analyzed for moisture, protein, ash, fiber, fatty acids, amino acids, fat, minerals and vitamins. While low in calcium, bee pupa was a good source of phosphorus, potassium, magnesium and the trace minerals such as iron, zinc, copper and selenium. In addition, bee pupa contained more of the fat soluble vitamins (A, D, E), it also was a good source of most the B-vitamins as well as vitamin c and choline.
