The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of the addition of amino acids and vitamins in the sucrose syrup used for Apis mellifera supplementation, in terms of its productive and physiological aspects, as well as its economic viability. Two experiments were carried out, the first in the apiary school of the EVZ / UFG and the second in a controlled environment in the ICB/ UFG morphology laboratory in Goiania. The supplements tested in the two experiments were: 50% sucrose syrup; sucrose syrup 50% + 0.5% of the commercial amino acid / vitamin supplement (Promoter L®); sucrose syrup 50% + 0.5% amino acids in proportion to the requirements of A. mellifera and sucrose syrup 50% + 0.5% amino acids are in the proportion of the o royal jelly. The second experiment had a control treatment: mixture of 66% honey and 34% pollen. In the first experiment, 16 hives were supplemented from april to july, with four treatments and four replications. A completely randomized design was used. The analyzed variables in the experiment were: capped brood area and honey production. Difference between the treatments was observed for both variables, with best results for sucrose syrup 50% + 0.5% of Promotor L® and sucrose syrup 50% + 0.5% of amino acids in proportion of its requirements for A. mellifera. The cost / benefit ratio indicate economic advantage for sucrose syrup 50% + 0.5% of amino acids in proportion of its requirements for A. mellifera. In the second experiment were used 500 newly emerged bee placed in experimental cages and distributed in randomized block design, in BOD greenhouse, with five treatments and four repetitions of 25 bees confined for seven days. The analyzed variables in the experiment were: food consumption; dry weight, survival rate, development of hypopharyngeal gland, lipids and protein deposition in body and crude protein of hemolymph. It was observed higher consumption of diets from the sucrose-based syrup treatments when compared to the treatment with honey and pollen. Body deposition of lipids was higher for treatment with honey and pollen. The survival rate were higher in treatment with honey and pollen and treatment containing sucrose with amino acids in the proportions of its requirements for A. mellifera. The development of hypopharyngeal glands differed between the treatments, with best results for the treatment containing honey and pollen and for the treatment with sucrose syrup with amino acids in the proportions of its requirements for A. mellifera. The treatment containing only sucrose and the treatment containing sucrose syrup with amino acids in the proportions of the royal jelly show the worst results. The dry weight and deposition of proteins, where best for the treatment with honey and pollen, and worst results for the treatment containing only sucrose syrup. Considering the results obtained in the two experiments, it is recommended to use 50% sucrose supplement with 0.5% essential amino acids in the proportions of A. mellifera requirements in the off-seaso
