QS. An Nahl, 16:68 Dan Tuhanmu mewahyukan kepada lebah: "Buatlah sarang-sarang di bukit- bukit, di pohon-pohon kayu, dan di tempat-tempat yang dibikin manusia",

QS. An Nahl, 16:69 kemudian makanlah dari tiap-tiap (macam) buah- buahan dan tempuhlah jalan Tuhanmu yang telah dimudahkan (bagimu). Dari perut lebah itu keluar minuman (madu) yang bermacam-macam warnanya, di dalamnya terdapat obat yang menyembuhkan bagi manusia. Sesungguhnya pada yang demikian itu benar-benar terdapat tanda (kebesaran Tuhan) bagi orang-orang yang memikirkan.

Alejandra Vasquez, a researcher at Lund University: In wild and fresh honey, which honey hunters collect from bees’ nests in high cliffs and trees, there are billions of healthy lactic acid bacteria of 13 different types. This is in comparison with the 1-3 different types found in commercial probiotic products, she explains. The honey bees have used these bacteria for 80 million years to produce and protect their honey and their bee bread (bee pollen), which they produce to feed the entire bee colony. The researchers have now also shown that the healthy lactic acid bacteria combat the two most serious bacterial diseases to affect honey bees.

Figure 3. In vivo visualization of LAB biofilm. The red fluorescence shows live-stained bacteria in a LAB biofilm attached to a honey crop. The green fluorescence shows the nuclei of the honeybee crop cells. The visualized tissue shows a projection of 112 confocal z-sections (through a 37.6 µm z-depth, covering a xy-area of 246×246 µm).

Figure 4. LAB rescue of honeybee larvae from European Foulbrood. Proportion dead larvae in both replicates (total number dead after 21 days). Data presented as a mean for the three groups fed M. plutonius (10 7, 10 6 and10 5 bacteria ml −1 ), and the 3 groups fed M. plutonius and LAB. Irrespective of infectious dose, the overall effect from the LAB supplement was a significantly reduced mortality in the treated groups. Mortality in the uninfected control groups was <7%.
