STUDIES ON THE NUTRACEUTIC PROPERTIES OF SOME NATURAL BIO STIMULATING JUICES OBTAINED FROM INDIGENOUS PLANTS AND BEE PRODUCTS

Plants represent an inexhaustible source of organic substances, minerals, vitamins, and antioxidants, which the human body absolutely needs. The opportunity to capitalize on some indigenous plants and bee products in natural, biostimulating juices results primarily from the objective itself, that of obtaining competitive nutritional-therapeutic assortments, with a healthy c effect on consumers. The technology of preparing natural, bio-stimulating juices is not only relatively simple but also affordable. Also, the valorization of the by-products resulting from obtaining these biostimulating natural juices is another important element of economic efficiency. Taking into account their multiple sensory, nutraceutical, and economic characteristics, obtaining bio-stimulating natural juices from indigenous plants and bee products become a major imperative for improving the health status and quality of life for consumers, as well as for the practice of performing national agrotourism.
