Cover Story: Honey products contain many compounds, such as vitamins, enzymes, and minerals, which make honey and its products great antioxidants with critical roles in health status. Eighty regular blood donor volunteers were divided into four groups: group A (n = 20) consumed two spoons of Greek honey and one drop of propolis per day for 1 month, group B (n = 20) consumed two spoons of honey per day for 1 month, group C (n = 20) consumed one drop of propolis per day, and group D (n = 20) did not consume any Greek honey products. In the present study, statistically significant decreases in reactive oxygen species statuses were found after small doses of honey product consumption, indicating that a diet with a small doses of honey products would be beneficial after blood donation.
