Drone brood is a collection of developing individuals (larvae, prepupae and pupae) drones - males bee colony. used to produce homogenate, which stabilized in one way or another achieve optimal preservation biologically active substances. Interest drone as rich source macro- micronutrients steadily increasing. The purpose this review summarize the collected data on use rational nutrition apitherapy. indicators quality safety are reviewed, requirements regulatory documents for products based it given. necessity strict adherence storage conditions homogenate shown, case violation there rapid deterioration homogenate. This necessitates stabilization brood, makes possible preserve its properties with lower conditions. groups nutrients that make up determine biological activity directions application Among them lipids, including phospholipids unique decenoic acids, proteins, peptides amino substances containing sulfhydryl groups, flavonoid other phenolic compounds, carbohydrates, steroid substances, hormones hormone-like mineral elements. Products effects their described: actoprotective, anabolic, immunomodulatory, endocrinotropic, neurotropic, nutritional cosmetic. analyzed indicate high relevance further introduction preparations into apitherapeutic practice, will serve tool correcting diet modern person suffering from disease civilization, largely associated ratio amount diet.
