We at UnBEElievable Health are committed to making it easier for busy people to be healthier, naturally. These days we are all concerned about what we put in our bodies. Nutritional supplements are gaining in popularity as more and more people are looking for more natural solutions to maintain optimum health.
We understand that navigating the world of nutritional supplements and natural remedies can be confusing, and learning about them can be time consuming. Oftentimes, several supplements may be considered useful for a particular health issue. It is hard to know which ones may be the best choice.
Under the advisement of a team of nutritional scientists and formulation experts, we research and develop unique targeted combinations of natural-source ingredients.
UnBEElievable’s BEE Prepared immune support, which combines generous amounts of some of the best natural ingredients used to help support the body’s natural defences, means fewer supplements in your cabinet, fewer pills to take and less money to spend.
We use only the highest quality natural-source ingredients in our products, all of which have a history of traditional use in helping support the immune system.
We do not include anything synthetic or unnecessary in our products. We believe in the importance eating a healthy diet, and we don’t put anything extra in BEE Prepared immune support that you would normally get from a balanced diet or a multivitamin. Our range contains some of nature’s most extraordinary and beneficial immune support ingredients, which are not usually found in abundance – if at all – in the average diet.

Having spent the last two decades living between London and NYC whilst juggling a high-stress sales and marketing career on top of motherhood, Sarah Orecchia was a frequent sufferer from colds and flus. She had always been passionate about natural health voraciously reading and studying it ever since her university days. Her tendency to avoid over-the-counter remedies, prescription medication and all the worrisome chemicals and preservatives they contained motivated her to look for more natural solutions to help her and her family fight off endless bouts of illness.
Sarah’s journey began when she decided to investigate the very best natural ingredients and remedies traditionally used to help with colds and flus and as well as other health issues. After speaking to numerous nutritionists & health experts, she first began taking bee propolis, which produced astounding results, and she was amazed to learn about the many positive benefits of propolis, not to mention the other incredible bee ingredients such as manuka honey, bee pollen and royal jelly. She developed an enormous admiration and affinity for honeybees.
Sarah went on to investigate and experiment with other nutrients. Her first mission: to find the best combination possible to help boost the immune system, naturally without over stimulating it. After years of trying out different variations of a variety of ingredients on herself, her family and friends, Sarah felt she had landed upon a truly remarkable formula. With the help of a team of nutritionists and formulation specialists, Unbeelievable Health’s first range of products, Bee Prepared Immune Support was born. Each of the four dynamic ingredients – bee propolis extract, black elderberry extract, olive leaf extract and beta glucans – has been traditionally used to support immune system health in some cases for hundreds or even thousands of years. (UnBEElievable Health recently launched MAX Strength Bee Prepared whish is more concentrated and also contains astaxanthin & reishi mushroom).
A well functioning immune system is the best insurance you can have when it comes to maintaining optimum health. We all know how many days of work, school and travel can be lost due to illness. One’s best defense? Eating well, having a healthy lifestyle and doing what you can to stack the odds in your favour that you are in good enough shape to fight off illness.
After years of preparation and research, Orecchia got the final push she needed to get started with her business. Whilst researching over the counter cold remedies, she happened upon one cough syrup that contained chloroform and another that contained two ingredients, which have been shown to cause breast cancer. Granted the products contained small inclusions of these ingredients, but nevertheless, the ingredients were present. Research shows that the trend for more natural solutions to maintaining better health is huge. Mintel reports that the natural health market has grown by 18% in 2 years and is worth £213 million a year. They predict sales will increase 33% to £282 million in the UK over the next four years as more patients reject prescription drugs in favour of natural remedies.
UnBEElievable Health’s products contain one or more bee ingredients combined with other nutrients, all of which have a proven history of benefits. The company is doing their part to help raise awareness about the importance of bees and the growing problem of the worldwide decline of the bees.
In addition a portion of the proceeds of each box is donated to Vitamin Angels, an international charity, which provides vitamins to malnourished children worldwide. www.vitaminangels.org
Orecchia enjoys knowing that her business is about more than just providing a product or service and finds helping people feel their best whilst raising awareness about the importance of bees hugely rewarding

How Can We Support the Bees?
Buy Bee Products
Goodness from the hive is the heart of our brand.
There’s a lot you can do, starting with the most attractive option: eat more honey! Creating a demand for honey and other products made with bee ingredients like propolis, royal jelly, bee pollen & beeswax and, yes, even Bee Prepared Immune Support will keep the market for bee-related products strong. More people will then be likely to take up beekeeping, which will increase the number of bees.
Adopt a Beehive
We’re very happy to report that we adopted a beehive, and you can read about it here: The Unbeelievable Hive.
If you’d like to join the growing number of adoptive bee parents, check out the British Beekeepers Association’s Adopt A Beehive page. The money raised by this programme will fund research into honeybee health and education programmes for beekeepers.
Start Your Own Colony
The British Beekeepers Association estimates that over 90% of the UK’s honeybee population is cared for by 17,000 amateur beekeepers. There’s a load of information out there on how to go about it, but we recommend getting started by searching for a seminar in your area or picking up one of the many how-to guides like A Practical Manual of Beekeeping.
Make Your Garden Bee-Friendly
UC Berkeley has published Urban Bee Gardens, a fantastic guide to turning your garden into a bee paradise. It includes a comprehensive list of the best plants and flowers to attract bees, as well as information about the different species of bees, garden behaviour, stinging: facts v. fears and more.
Spread The Word
A lot of people don’t know about the decline of the bees, and the more people who do know, the better. Tell your friends and family. Post on your blog or your Facebook page. Write your MP to let him or her know that this is an important issue for you. All hope is not lost for the bees. There’s really a lot we can do to help!
Many companies and organizations are taking notice of the crisis and are doing their part to raise awareness:

Why We Support Vitamin Angels
Everyone understands the importance of a healthy and balanced diet but sometimes this is not always possible. One in three children worldwide is undernourished. Vitamin Angels was founded in 1994 by Howard Schiffer and since has distributed more than 400 million nutritional supplements to critically malnourished children in over 40 countries preventing blindness (by supplementing with vitamin A) and other illnesses.
Vitamin Angels Mission:
‘Our mission is to mobilize and deploy private sector resources to advance availability, access and use of micronutrients, especially vitamin A, to newborns, infants and children in need. Vitamin Angels reduces child mortality worldwide by connecting essential nutrients, especially vitamin A, with infants and children under five. Essential nutrients enable young immune systems to fight infectious diseases, helping children attain good health and the opportunity to lead meaningful and productive lives.’
