HEALTH BENEFITS OF MALAYSIAN STINGLESS BEE HONEY (MADU KELULUT)

There are over 500 species of stingless bees across the world and 40 - 50 of these can be found in Malaysia alone. In fact, you’ve most likely encountered these amazing creatures in person. Pure stingless bee honey like Arnia is considered the crown jewel of Malaysia’s rainforests and comes with enormous health benefits.


Stingless bees (lebah kelulut) collect nectar in the forest for a variety of purposes such as to build nests and defend against predators and pathogens. The honey made by stingless bees is called stingless bee honey (madu kelulut) or kelulut honey. It is rich in antioxidants and acts as a natural cleanser for our bodies while also boosting immune system activity. 

More and more researchers around the globe are recommending the use of stingless bee honey, known as the MOTHER OF MEDICINE.


Propolis or bee glue is used to build colony hive walls. This results in a honey that has a unique and distinctive flavour. The bees mix beeswax, saliva and exudates from botanical sources such as flowers, trees and resin to make propolis. The anti-microbial qualities of the propolis diffuse into the honey and further increases its positive effects on health. The following are the known benefits of regularly consuming stingless bee honey:
