Abstract: Aegle marmelos, commonly called "Bael," is a native Indian herb. The Bael tree—also referred to as the golden apple or Bengal quince—belongs to the Rutaceae family of medium-sized deciduous trees.

Its other properties include anti-proliferative, hepatoprotective, antidiabetic, antibacterial, and antifungal properties. Therefore, those who are keen to carry out further research on.
