Abstract in brief

Honey contains bioactive compounds like flavonoids and phenolic acids that have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, which may help in managing chronic diseases associated with oxidative stress and inflammation.
Obesity involves fat tissue enlargement that leads to oxidative stress and inflammation, contributing to related issues such as metabolic syndrome and neurodegeneration; experimental animal studies suggest honey can improve blood sugar levels and lipid profiles, offering protective effects.
The review emphasizes that honey's key ingredients, especially polyphenols, could be responsible for its health benefits, but more well-designed human studies are needed to confirm these effects.]
