    Abstract

    One of the earliest varieties of fruit trees that are native to India is the Bael. Diarrhea is a prevalent gastrointestinal issue affecting both children and adults, causing dehydration and death. It is caused by a balance imbalance between absorption and secretion in the small intestine. Diarrheal disease is a major infection worldwide, with 1.5 to 2 billion deaths occurring annually. Symptoms include frequency, consistency, abdominal discomfort, dehydration, fever, urgency, nausea, vomiting, fatigue, and blood in stool. Diarrhea can be classified into acute, chronic, bloody, secretory, osmotic, inflammatory, motility, and exudative. Diarrheal is the second leading cause of child mortality and morbidity worldwide. To manage diarrhea, individuals can drink plenty of fluids, follow a BRAT diet, use antidiarrheal medications like loperamide, and use probiotics to restore gut bacteria balance. Avoiding irritants like caffeine, alcohol, fatty foods, and high-fiber foods is crucial. Bael fruits, used in Ayurvedic medicine, have a pharmacological action that includes absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion.
