Propolis can be taken directly or it can be dissolved in water or juice (20ml)

Direct intake is suggested in case of sore throat (10-15 drops for adults) or gargle with propolis in water. 

You can take propolis for two months straight but then it is suggested to cease use for 1 month and then start again. Alternatively, you can take propolis for the first 15 days of each month.

CAUTION! Propolis can stain surfaces and fabrics thus making them difficult to clean. Bleach or pure alcohol might help in removing stains.
