Abstract: A fermented pollen-based composition is provided which is made by treating pollen grains with one or more natural potassium sources selected from coconut water, coconut milk, raw honey, or honeydew honey, to naturally stimulate germination of the pollen, then incubating the germinated pollen, optionally with one or more additional components selected from beeswax, oils, enzyme-containing components derived from fruit, and probiotic components, wherein the resulting composition comprises a plurality of bioactive components selected from low molecular weight peptides, fatty acids, esterified flavonoids, dicaffeoyl quinic acid isomers and dicaffeoyl tartaric acid ester or ether compounds. Topical skin compositions including the fermented pollen-based composition as an active ingredient are also provided.

Abstract: A two stage reaction platform is provided to produce a pollen-based extract material, comprising the steps of a first stage including: opening and/or germinating pollen grains, reacting the treated pollen grains with one or more beehive components, selected from beeswax, honey, or enzyme-containing material, and stirring to form a jelly; and a second stage including heating the jelly in a closed container to product an extract. The extract may be a fermented extract. An aqueous skin cream includes the pollen-based extract and one or more of glycerine, natural oils, emollients, preservatives, vitamins, fragrance, emulsifiers, or waxes. The skin cream may be used for treatment of skin conditions or inflammation. In another embodiment a method of treating eczema or psoriasis is provided, comprising administering to the individual in need of such treatment a therapeutically effective amount of an aqueous skin cream.
