What health agencies say
An opinion says what the agency recommends; it is not a rule binding on the product.
ANSES advises people with asthma, an atopic background or a pollen allergy to avoid foods and supplements containing pollen or hive products. It points out that pollen allergy is a risk factor for allergy to hive products (royal jelly, propolis, honey).
