2024-10-13T20:02:21+00:00

: Beekeeping products are important for their use, and some theories suggest that bees appeared before the emergence of man, and are known by several civilizations, mainly due to the products they produce. Over time, these products have gained recognition and, since then, have been explored for a range of applications. Given this, the present study aimed to conduct a descriptive review of beekeeping products and their use today. To carry out the integrative review, some steps were followed, such as: identification of the theme and formulation of the question to be studied; definition of inclusion criteria; selection of information from literature studies; evaluation of these studies; interpretation of results and presentation of the review as a synthesis of knowledge. The studies were selected from national and international journals based on descriptors combined with Boolean terms. It was possible to observe that beekeeping products have been used since ancient times and, every day, they gain more value and commercialization, whether for health in their consumption in natura form, or in the food, pharmaceutical and cosmetics industries. The study served as a contribution to a debate on current results in scientific research, showing the relevance of the study related to this topic.
