Deep in the tropical rainforests of Malaysia, a neuroscientist is quietly working on something unexpected.

Dr. Muhammad Zulkifli Mustafa, a university professor and brain scientist, is also a passionate stingless bee beekeeper — exploring the powerful connection between brain health, biodiversity, and community transformation.

In this short documentary, we take you into his unique research station, where:

🍯 Stingless bees produce acidic, medicinal honey in tiny black resin pots
🧠 This honey has been scientifically shown to boost BDNF (Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor) — enhancing memory, reducing stress, and potentially preventing Alzheimer’s
🏡 Local communities in Kelantan and Terengganu are trained to raise bees, increasing rural incomes by up to 60%
🌱 The project integrates agroecology, neuroscience, and sustainable development

📊 Key Insights:

Over 600 species of stingless bees exist globally, thriving in tropical climates

Kelulut honey is rich in polyphenols, probiotics, and ferments naturally — leading to high antioxidant value

Malaysia granted stingless bee honey Geographical Indication (GI) protection in 2021

The project has impacted 50+ rural communities, empowering over 1,000 micro-entrepreneurs

✨ This is more than a story about honey. It’s about how nature, science, and rural wisdom can create a sweeter, more sustainable future — for brains, bees, and beyond.
