Discover the fascinating world of Aegle marmelos, also known as Bengal Quince, Bili, Golden Apple, Indian Bael, Stone Apple, and Wood Apple. This is a mid-sized, slender and aromatic tree originating from the Indian subcontinent and Southeast Asia. It grows up to 60 ft tall, bearing hard-shelled fruits that can be eaten fresh or dried, filled with an aromatic orange pulp that's been described as tasting like marmalade and smelling of roses. In Hinduism, the bael tree is sacred and used in the worship of Shiva. However, it is not just its spiritual significance that makes this tree stand out. The essential oil extracted from the Bael tree has been found to be effective against 21 types of bacteria. The tree has a significant economic footprint as well. An extract from the tree, aegeline, has been used in manufacturing a weight-loss dietary supplement in the United States. Cultivated throughout Sri Lanka, Thailand, and Malesia, this species of tree proves to be adaptable, growing in diverse soil conditions and climates from 20°F to 118°F. Explore the benefits and the unique aspects of Aegle marmelos and immerse yourself in an element of nature that merges spirituality, health, and biology in one.
