Lance Armstrong <http://www.lancearmstrong.com/> take note: A new study
indicates an extract of propolis <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Propolis>, a
honeybee product, holds promise for helping endurance cyclists cope more
effectively with the heat stress that develops during long-distance rides.
That heat can diminish an athlete’s performance by fostering fatigue and
dehydration.

Propolis is a resinous material that bees fashion from plant saps and the
like. They use it to not only caulk small spaces in their hive but also to
insulate and reinforce the hive’s support structures. But folk medicine has
found plenty of uses, too, for propolis over the years — primarily in
treating everything from burns and sore throats to impaired immunity. This
gummy substance may even hold promise in fighting dental caries.
