What the science says: propolis, royal jelly, and hive products
What published research says about the remedies mentioned above, for context — these studies concern material causes; healing belongs to Allah.
Propolis, royal jelly, and hive products
Propolis, a resin gathered by bees, shows wound-healing effects confirmed by a meta-analysis on skin wounds (Arch Dermatol Res, 2023) and potential benefits for oral health (J Funct Biomater, 2024). Like honey, these products are part of the apitherapy that the professor recommends to support immunity. Precaution: possible allergy to hive products (especially propolis and bee pollen) — start with small amounts; bee venom should only be used under the guidance of a trained professional.
