Over the past few decades, traditional medicinal products have grown in popularity. It is estimated that 80% of patients worldwide use them for basic health treatment. Due to its extraordinary bioactive properties, propolis is a bee product commonly utilised in alternative medicines. Propolis is a complicated mixture of substances, procured by bees from diverse vegetations and mix them with beeswax and bee saliva enzymes. Propolis bioactivities have been examined and reported in the treatments of numerous chronic diseases. Given the differences in pharmacological activity and compound markup of propolis, huge variation exists due to numerous hive localities. This study intends to define and explore the bioactive qualities of propolis in Malaysia. Information on the antibacterial, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and other bioactivity properties from studies conducted on Malaysian propolis have been consolidated in this review. This research would result in an enhanced understanding of the safe consumption of Malaysian propolis and may spur the development of novel and more affordable treatments for various infections.
