Patient's question:
NoDoctor's answer:
Because royal jelly contains sterols, which are also needed for children's development, the claim that "hormones and precocious puberty" is based on a certain amount. For children taking royal jelly daily, the dosage is 1 milligram, while to produce "sex hormones," one would need to take 100 grams of royal jelly daily, a difference of ten thousand times. Therefore, the claim that children should not take royal jelly is unfounded.
