Tualang honey supplementation improves inflammatory and bone markers among postmenopausal breast cancer patients : a randomised controlled trial
Honey is traditionally used among breast cancer patients in Malaysia with the belief that it can improve the overall health. Therefore, this study aims to determine the effects of Tualang honey supplementation on levels of inflammatory markers, bone markers and oestradiol among postmenopausal breast...
