Is this product soy based? I've read that 40% of sugar in soy is toxic to bees?

"Plant protein products" is listed as the first ingredient followed by a lengthy list of substances. I see no mention of soy, which does not necessarily mean there is none. You are actually asking a question, then stating an opinion which may or may not have anything to do with the product. Googling soybeans, i note that a a cup of raw soybeans is 186gms. It contains 14 grams of sugar. As the first poster said, contact Mann Lake. I doubt they would sell "bee food" that was actually harmful to bees. Good luck.

The genes of soybeans grown in the US have been genetically modified (unless labeled "organic"). Maybe that's why soy-based products are toxic.

I'm not sure cause I don't have the bucket any more but my bee's love it and I have no losses this year with 18 hives. I just ordered 50lbs bag of ultra bee pro from mann lake its a lot cheaper and free shipping with $100 order.

Ugh! Sadly it contains stupid additives like gelatin and magnesium stearate. The latter is a machine cleaning agent they mix in there that is "harmless" in small amounts of humans. No thanks as far as the additives! As far as the gelatin, it is usually bovine derived. Meaning it is made from the tissue of dead animals. Kinda gross, vegan or no vegan.

This product contains NO soy. I purchased this product for my daughter who was around 2yrs old at the time. This is a great tasting product, without dangerous additives such as soy, that my child enjoyed taking. It can be a bit difficult to clean up if spilled as it tends to leave a white residue behind

I know many are allergic or sensitive to soy products and the soy they are using might be GMO and not organic as is most here in the US. Contact the health professional who recommended it to you or contact Standard Process about it.

I haven't tried this honey, and I buy organic, but an "organic" label on honey is silly to me. Honey bees can range miles and miles away from their hive, meaning that even if bee keepers are careful of their immediate surroundings, there's absolutely no way to guarantee that a bee hasn't taken nectar from treated crops, or GMO crops. Just something to think about before you spend more on "organic" honey :)

If you read RWM's review you will see the product contains no soy. This is an excellent product which I highly recommend.

Hi Janine, I'm not sure if all their products contain soy or not. If you're not allergic to soy and your concern is consuming soy based on the latest studies you should know that fermented soy is safe and the way it's supposed to be consumed. Being organic guarantees that it's not GMO.

I don't have access to product right now but bees are a concern of mine as well. I am a Biologist and research chemicals I use to be certain they are specific to my needs and not general in nature. I had a white fly problem only and remember researching this product at the time. I hope this helps.

This product DOES NOT contatin soy. It took me a little bit of digging but I found their allergy list on their website.http://www.carlsonlabs.com/product-comparison.aspx

This one is not organic. Some people confuse the NAME OF THE COMPANY on the jar (which says "YS Organic Bee Farms") with the product actually being organic. It is not. This is raw non-organic honey. I don't really care about the organic part, just that it's raw, AND tastes delicious. (Which I assure you this one does!)

Don't buy it. It is so toxic, really. Not worth it for your own health and the environment. I would place the orchids in a window with direct sun for a few weeks, or I would use a toothbrush and some dishsoap in water to clean the surfaces of the plant (if mites/larva are the problem). Steer clear of such harsh chemicals though. This is banned in Europe. It is what is causing the honeybee collapse in the US.

I am just examining the label now. It has a seal on the front "GMP Quality Assured." I looked for the words "non-GMO" and didn't find them BUT for ingredients, it says: "Contains no sugar, salt, starch, yeast, wheat, gluten, corn, soy, milk, egg, shellfish, polysorbates, preservatives, or titanium dioxide." This clearly says it contains no soy so I would not worry about GMO soy. The patented source is "Kaneka QH." I will check that out further but remember, the label says no soy.

This product is NOT organic. They do make an organic raw variety that can be bought on Amazon (and it does have the USDA Organic Symbol), but for a higher cost: YS Organic Bee Farms Certified Organic Raw Honey 100% Unprocessed, Unpasteurized - Kosher 32oz 2 Lbs Frustration Free Packaging

I also see that this product is labeled vegan. Also when I was searching on Amazon for vegan alternatives to honey, this product came up. I agree with Calliegirl, this product description needs revision.

Dear Bruce,The short answer is, YES. This is this actually unprocessed and unfiltered, among other non invasive procesdures which are generally harmful - e.g. heating - these and others are not used.As a result the honey using 'raw' honey straight from the honeycomb and contains many things such as enzymes, vitamins and other than essential natural 'Mother Nature' ingredients. One of those is small particles of 'bee pollen'. If you want you can order Bee Pollen such as: Stakich BRAZILIAN BEE POLLEN GRANULES 1 lb - 100% Pure, Natural, Unprocessed - I have ordered the honey you are asking about as well as Really Raw Honey (Canadian) and others and thoroughly have enjoyed for many years.
