| Summary: | Inflammation is the main key role in developing chronic diseases including cancer, cardiovascular diseases, diabetes,
arthritis, and neurodegenerative diseases which possess a huge challenge for treatment. With massively compelling
evidence of the role played by nutritional modulation in preventing inflammation-related diseases, there is a growing
interest into the search for natural functional foods with therapeutic and preventive actions. Honey, a nutritional healthy
product, is produced mainly by two types of bees: honeybee and stingless bee. Since both types of honey possess
distinctive phenolic and flavonoid compounds, there is recently an intensive interest in their biological and clinical actions
against inflammation-mediated chronic diseases. This review shed the light specifically on the bioavailability and
bioaccessibility of honey polyphenols and highlight their roles in targeting inflammatory pathways in gastrointestinal tract
disorders, edema, cancer, metabolic and cardiovascular diseases and gut microbiota. |
