This book provides fundamental knowledge on the potential medicinal properties of honey and secondary metabolites of flavonoids. The book was written as a result of the author’s many years of scientific research in the field of testing the quality of Bosnian-Herzegovinian honey and its potentially medicinal properties, and numerous published studies examining the medicinal properties of flavonoids were analyzed during its writing.
The book, by focusing on the medicinal properties of secondary metabolites of flavonoids, and their introduction into the human body through honey, represents one of the first scientific and educational works of its kind.
This book is primarily intended for undergraduate and postgraduate students in the fields of natural sciences, medicine, pharmacy, agriculture, nutrition, and ecology, but it will also be of use to all those who are professionally involved in honey production or are interested in research in this field.
Man-made climate change poses a new crisis: how do we feed 10 billion people in a climate hostile to food security? This book explores the threat to our “daily bread” and argues that we are not without hope, offering solutions that can lead to a better future for humankind.
