Although the exact period of bee venoms origination is unknown, it has been passed down as a natural folk remedy for thousands of years. Also, Hippocrates, the Greek medical scientist also known as the father of medicine, left the record of using bee-sting. Bee venom is comprised of approximately 40 elements with 1.1313 density and 5.2 - 5.5 pH value. The key elements of bee venom are melittin, apamine, and MCD-peptide and others. It is known to be effective in pain relief, antiphlogistic, anti-bacteria, also accelerating blood circulation and hormone secretion from the pituitary gland. Raw bee-venom has 1.3 density and 5.2 pH value with a bitter taste and light fragrant. 75% of raw bee-venom is protein, and the rest is composed of potassium, sodium, magnesium, phosphorus, alanine, valine, arginine, tryptophan, methionine, histidine, and other substances. When dried in room temperature, approximately 30% is left dried. Traditionally, bee venom has been used for arthritis, inflammation in connective tissue or joints, and other pains. Moreover, it can be applied to rheumatoid arthritis, acute chronic arthritis, ruptured cervical or lumbar disc, spinal canal stenosis, fibromyalgia, myofascial pain, puerperal perspiration or arthralgia, a frozen shoulder, tennis elbow, and chronic sprain.
