Natural dietary antioxidants have a stronger antioxidant activity than synthetic antioxidants [1]. The most important antioxidants in bee honey are polyphenolic chemicals. Humans prefer bee honey to other bee products [2]. Proteins, gluconic acid, L-ascorbic acid, hydrogen peroxide, hydroxyl methyl furfural (HMF), Maillard reaction products, and other non-phenolic substances have antioxidant properties in addition to polyphenols. Honey's antioxidant action is mostly determined by its microbiogenic element concentration. The purpose of this research is to present the multifaceted role of microbiogenic components in humans. It's also crucial to call attention to microbiogenic metals like Cu, which can operate as both antioxidants and pro-oxidants. Cu works as an antioxidant because it is a component of various enzymes involved in the organism's antioxidant action. Cu in honey also works as a pro-oxidant when it reacts with L-ascorbic acid, which is also present in honey, in a Haber-weis reaction. Cu is potentially very harmful, in addition to being an important micronutrient, because of the capacity shift in oxidation state that leads to the commencement of the reaction in which free radicals are produced. As a result, a healthy intake of copper and other trace metals is critical in the human body. As a result, changes in the antioxidant activity of food are caused by chemical changes in the antioxidant active molecules included in the meal.
