- Abstract
Royal jelly, secreted from the hypopharyngeal and mandibular glands of worker honeybees, is a natural beekeeping product with a whitish colour, distinctive odour, sour-sweet taste, and viscous structure. It has a high nutritional value because it contains various carbohydrates, proteins, essential amino acids, lipids, fatty acids, B group vitamins, vitamins A, C, D, and E, and minerals such as potassium, calcium, sodium, magnesium, and phenolic compounds. It has antimicrobial, antioxidant, antiinflammatory, antidiabetic, anticancer, and antihypertensive effects and many positive effects on the immune, nervous, and digestive systems because of its rich bioactive contents. For this reason, its consumption is preferred by society as a supplementary food and can be consumed directly in the form of royal jelly or honey, pollen, or propolis mixtures. This study was carried out to review information about some physical, sensorial, and chemical properties of royal jelly, its effects on health, and its consumption as a food.
