Abstract: Honeybee pollen have many bioactive constituents such as essential amino acids, unsaturated fatty acids, flavonoids, polysaccharides, and they have the physiological functions of antioxidation, anticancer, reducing cholesterin, enhance immunity effects and so on. The research advance of bioactive constituents and pharemacological functions of honeybee pollen were reviewed in this paper. Meanwhile, the development prospect of pollen in functional food and medicine was pointed out.

Key words: honeybee pollen, bioactive constituent, physiological function
