Summer’s early arrival signals the need for natural coolants that do more than quench thirst. Bael, the wood apple synonymous with Shiva worship, packs medicinal punch across its entirety—from juicy pulp to potent roots and leaves—making it a summer essential.
Rooted in Ayurveda’s core, bael stimulates appetite, perfects digestion, eradicates gut imbalances, and builds stamina. Science backs this with evidence of its potent anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and antibacterial elements that shield and soothe the body.
Body swelled up from heat? Bael juice dials down inflammation swiftly. Constipation clogging you? Its fibers unclog and lubricate. Acidity or ulcers plaguing your stomach? Bael neutralizes and heals.
Blood sugar watchers, take note: Bael leaf decoctions modulate glucose uptake and metabolism, curbing unhealthy rises. Proceed with caution and medical consultation.
