Besides this utilization Propolis also has many benefits in curing various health problems like allergies, gynecological, oral and gastrointestinal disorders. However the accurate procedure in curing the illnesses have not been not completely evaluated and understood that’s why more clearly scientific approach is needed to explore the procedure. This paper deals with review of different therapeutic and biological properties of propolis that are listed and analyzed in past years.
