Can dogs eat Royal jelly?
Benefits
- Royal jelly is a mixture of sugars, fatty acids, proteins, vitamins, and minerals honeybees produce to nourish their larvae and queen bee. Dogs can benefit from its endurance and stamina-boosting properties when ingested as an oral supplement.
- With its antioxidant and antibacterial properties, royal jelly can help prevent chronic diseases in dogs, such as diabetes and cancer.
- Dog-specific royal jelly supplements contain proteins and lipids that promote hair growth, control shedding and strengthen the coat.
- Add royal jelly to your dog's grooming routine by incorporating it into shampoos and other products to enhance their coat.
Risks
- Royal jelly has a sharp, bitter taste that may not be pleasant to dogs.
- Bee products, such as honey, bee pollen, and royal jelly, can trigger allergic reactions in some dogs, especially those with pollen allergies.
Servings
- The recommended dosage of royal jelly for dogs is 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon once or twice daily between meals, given on an empty stomach.
- To offset the bitter taste, mix 4 tablespoons of organic royal jelly with 3/4 cup of raw honey. Give your dog up to 1 teaspoon of the royal jelly-honey blend twice daily, and store it in the refrigerator.
