At a congressional hearing, Harkin claimed that bee pollen cured his allergies, according to a report by Stanford University emeritus professor of medicine Wallace Sampson. Harkin appropriated $200,000 to Royden Brown, who sold Harkin the bee pollen, to study the remedy, according to “Natural Causes: death, lies and politics in America’s vitamin and herbal supplement industry,” a book by journalist Dan Hurley."
