In recent years, intensive honey bee (Apis mellifera L.) deaths have caused many questions in beekeeping. As the use of chemicals for bee health does not give the expected results and new problems such as residue problems in bee products are emerging, new ways of exit are being sought. In the studies, it is foreseen that the bees cannot cope with many stress factors and that the bees are not fed with sufficient and high-quality food sources. As a result of malnutrition, honey bee is the target of common bee diseases and pests due to decreased the immune system, It is important in terms of sustainable beekeepers to be well understood by beekeepers that improving the nutritional status of bees should be the main objective in fighting against bee health challenges. With this review, in the light of current researches and new information, the importance of feeding honey bees is revealed and it is aimed to be well understood by beekeepers.
