Q: How are flowers different from bael leaves? A: Bael flowers are more aromatic and delicate, with higher essential oil content. They're traditionally used more for respiratory support, heart health, and aromatherapy, while leaves focus on digestive support. Flowers are also more sacred in religious contexts.

Q: Why are they called "Beli Mal"? A: "Beli Mal" is the Sinhala (Sri Lankan) name meaning "bael flowers." "Beli" refers to the bael tree and "Mal" means flower. They're deeply significant in Sri Lankan culture and spirituality.
