Bitter Wood
Bitter Wood is a term often used to describe certain types of trees or plants that have a distinctly bitter taste. This bitterness can be attributed to the presence of specific compounds in the wood, which may deter herbivores and pests. Some species of trees known for their bitter wood include bitter orange and bitter almond.
In addition to its natural properties, Bitter Wood is sometimes utilized in traditional medicine and herbal remedies. The wood or extracts may be used for their potential health benefits, such as aiding digestion or acting as a natural insect repellent. However, caution is advised, as some bitter plants can be toxic if consumed improperly.
