Simple Propolis Healing Oil

Dissolve some (powdered or chunks) propolis in olive oil by slowly heating the oil in a water bath, stirring occasionally. The amounts depend on your desired potency and consistency. DO NOT heat over 122 degrees Fahrenheit. Once the propolis is all, or mostly, dissolved and mixed into the oil, strain through a mesh cloth into a glass jar and seal. Use generously on any topical infection or burn for faster healing and relief.
