From the Honorary President

I have been in the world of bees since 1956, and have been engaged in Apitherapy Health Care for 60 years, established unique “Chinese Bee Acupuncture Therapy” by combining bee venom treatment and the theory of Meridians and Collaterals. I also worked on propolis tablets to prevent and treat hyperlipidemia. I have been promoting health care effects of honeybee products and searching the important role of apitherapy in preventing diseases.

In 1980s, Central Newsreel and Documentary Film Studio (CNDFS) produced “Professor Fang Zhu: Specialist in Apitherapy”, translated into English to broadcast in various countries. Since then I have been interviewed by China Central Television (CCTV) for several times.

In 1990s, I worked as a chief physician and the visiting professor in Chinese universities. I established International Apitherapy and Bee Products Society (IABPS), organized Apitherapy Courses 50 times in China and 12 times abroad, had more than 2000 students. There are many people contributing to apitherapy health care from earliest times to the present day, and I hope colleagues of the Turkish Apitherapy Association (TAA) work in a down-to-earth way and make greater contributions to our Apitherapy.

Best wishes,

Professor Fang Zhu
Honorary President of TAA
