Abstract

Nature allows mankind to use its wonderful gifts, namely honey, beeswax, bee glue (propolis), royal jelly, bee venom and bee pollen - all these are not only natural remedies against various diseases, but also health-restoring, rejuvenating, energizing and is a natural product that prolongs life. What is honey itself? Honey is a product resulting from the digestive process of bees, in which flower nectar is fermented by evaporation of excess moisture. Sugars with a complex structure (sucrose) change, that is, turn into glucose and fructose. The chemical composition of honey is very complex and diverse.
