dc.description.abstractSince ancient times, bee pollen has emerged as a rich food product, which, besides being a source of energy, contains beneficial substances with recognized properties, both nutritionally and therapeutically. Recently, research about this natural product has allowed a more supported recognition of its health enhancement potential. The therapeutic properties of bee pollen are associated with the chemical composition, in particular vitamins, minerals, polysaccharides, and bioactive compounds, like phenolic acids and flavonoids. Due to the reasons highlighted, this review aims to synthesize some fundamental aspects of the relationship between the product's constituents and their respective bioactivity, in light of the most recent publications, which reveal the potential of bee pollen as a healthy product. Among them, citations of the most relevant benefits report the antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antifungal, and antimicrobial bioactivities. Other potentialities, as the therapeutic use in drug discovery, include, for instance, the ability to modulate cancer development. Along the sections of this chapter these health effects will be presented and discussed.pt_PT
