Therapeutic Properties of Stingless Bee Honey in Comparison with European Bee Honey
Advances in Pharmacological Sciences, 2018 Both honeybees (Apis spp.) and stingless bees (Trigona spp.) produce honeys with high nutritional and therapeutics value. Until recently, the information regarding potential health benefits of stingless bee honey (SBH) in medical databases is still scarce as compared to the common European bee honey (EBH) which is well known for their properties as ...
