Bael Fruit Herbal Drinking

There were many kinds of fruits in my garden when I was young. One of them I like is " Ma Toom " ( 'bael' or 'bael fruit' in English). Its size is the same as a mango fruit. It's the round to pear-shaped, yellowish edible fruit of a chiefly Indian tree (Aegle marmelos), used in southern Asia as a food and as a medicine to treat dysentery. My mother and I sliced and dried them every fruit period. They were kept for a long time as dried status. And they were made for drinking as our pleasure.

In Thailand, Bael Fruit Herbal Tea is most popular in Thai resturant for drinking theraphy. Bael fruit is the best laxative of all fruits. It cleans and tones up the intestines & gives constipation relief. If you have the problems with digestive system, this drinking can heal you!!!
