(The queen bee grows 42% larger than the worker bee, lives five to seven years and lays over 2,000 eggs per day). It also is known to have a naturally bitter taste. Luckily, it can easily be masked when consuming it with honey or in smoothies, such as this one!

Every January, we all start with big plans. Eat healthier. Feel better. Finally, take care of ourselves. Then, a few weeks in, those resolutions start to feel like a chore. It’s not that you’re lazy or unmotivated. The real problem? Trying to change everything all at once just doesn’t work.
