At work I am in the process of studying the health value of Polycosanols. These are long chain alcohols. The article was explaining the waxes in many seeds and plants. They believe these octacosanols might have cholesterol lowering properties seen in grains. The article also listed many different acids and these long chain alcohols in honey comb. they briefly discussed beekeepers wax as being a significant source of these compounds. I was wondering if there was any extensive study of the health properties in bees wax?
I love to chew on the comb.
