Indian Bael leaves have been traditionally used for treating oral infections due to their anti-cancerous and antibacterial properties. A study explored the essential oil of these leaves and found that it contains the compound limonene, which showed significant anticancer activity against human oral epidermal carcinoma cells. The oil also exhibited antioxidant properties, inhibiting free radicals. Additionally, it showed anti-cariogenic effects, inhibiting the growth of bacteria associated with oral health issues. These findings suggest that Indian Bael leaves could be a valuable natural therapeutic agent for managing oral cancer and infections.
