Honey is an important food and therapeutic product of beekeeping work. In this chapter, our objective is to present different types of Brazilian honey produced in different regions of Brazil by farmers and traditional communities, and how this variety of honey products are used therapeutically by the population to treat some diseases. We mention orange honey, eucalyptus honey, uruçu honey, borá honey, vine-grape honey, jataí honey, chestnut honey, and cashew honey. Many of them have been used by the traditional Brazilian community to treat some diseases. According to research, some of these honeys have been shown to have natural compounds that interact with cellular targets and promote therapeutic action.
