Research evaluation of Bee Pollen contents
Bee pollen has flavonoid constituents that have antioxidant properties. The results of a detailed bee pollen study show: A total of 15 compounds were separated with gradient reversed phase HPLC, and 13 were identified and quantified using diode array detector. The most predominant compounds were flavonoid glycosides, mainly flavonols. Eighty-two percent of the samples contained at least 14 of the phenolic components, primarily rutin, quercetin, myricetin, and trans-cinnamic acid as free aglycons. Total bee pollen phenols were present, at levels of >0.85 g/100 g in the form of non-tannins, and flavonoids of >0.35 g/100 g.

An unknowingly sensitized atopic patient experienced an anaphylactic reaction after ingestion of a small quantity of bee pollen that contained pollens and fungi.
