Optimization of Eloquent queries in Laravel 4 - php

Question

I've just recently started using Laravel and I've got a problem, that my page is really slow.
The issue is that my queries are not ideal:
`
<div class="container">
#foreach ($product as $single)
<?php
$tagy = $single->tags()->get();
echo "<div class='item";
foreach($tagy as $tag) {
$premenna = Tags::where('id','=',$tag->tagID)->first();
echo " item".$premenna->id;
}
echo "'>";
?>
<div class="thumbnail porfolio">
<img class="image" src="<?=Croppa::url($single->destinationPath.'/'.$single->coverphoto, 250)?>" />
<div class="caption">
<div class="info">
<h4 style="font-weight: bold;">{{ $single->name }}</h5>
<p style="font-size: 15px; margin-bottom: 0px;">{{ $single->city }}</p>
<p class="date">{{ $single->date }}</p>
</div>
<div class="map-location">
<i class="fa fa-dot-circle-o fa-2x"></i>
</div>
<div class="tagy">
<?php
foreach($tagy as $tag) {
$variable= Tags::where('id','=',$tag->tagID)->orderBy('name')->first();
echo "<a class='hashtag tag".$variable->id."'>".$variable->name." </a>";
}
?>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
#endforeach
</div>`
This is my Controller function:
protected function index()
{
$product = Product::where('active','=',1)->orderBy('date')->get();
$tagy = Tags::orderBy('name')->get();
return View::make('uvod',['product' => $product, 'tags' => $tagy]);
}
I've made one-to-many relationship between Product Class and ProductTag Class - that's the fucntion tags();
Could you please somehow help me optimizing the code (queries)? I would like to use #foreach function only once if possible - when i deleted the foreach functions inside the main one the page speed significantly improved.
Thank you very much for any kind of help :)
