BBC News:
"Honey and royal jelly could become part of the arsenal of weapons against cancer,
researchers say.

A team from the University of Zagreb, in Croatia, found a range of honey-bee products
stopped tumours growing or spreading in tests on mice.

Writing in the Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, they say human cancer
sufferers may also see benefits.

But they said the products should be considered for use along with, not instead of,
chemotherapy treatment. "
