Synopsis
Source of validity: Traditional
Rating (out of 5): 2
Bael (Aegle marmelos), also known as Bengal quince, has a long history of use in traditional Ayurvedic and Unani medicine for various gastrointestinal issues, including nausea and vomiting. The fruit, leaves, and roots of the plant are utilized in different preparations. Traditionally, Bael is considered to have digestive and carminative properties, and its unripe fruit is often recommended for gastrointestinal complaints such as diarrhea, dysentery, and nausea. The rationale provided in traditional texts is based on its perceived ability to soothe the digestive tract, reduce irritation, and restore balance to the digestive system. However, scientific evidence supporting Bael’s efficacy specifically for nausea and vomiting is limited. Most available research focuses on its anti-diarrheal, anti-inflammatory, and antimicrobial properties. Some animal studies suggest that Bael extracts can protect the gastric mucosa and reduce ulcer formation, which could theoretically mitigate nausea, but direct studies examining its antiemetic effects in humans are lacking. Thus, its use for nausea and vomiting is primarily justified by traditional knowledge rather than robust scientific validation.
