We are enchanted with holy basil or tulsi (Ocimum tenuiflorum). This beautiful and aromatic herb has an intoxicating scent of lemon, clove and licorice, and attracts bees and other pollinators to the garden. This sacred herb has been cultivated in India for over 3000 years. It is considered an adaptogen, which is a natural substance used in herbal medicine to regulate the systems of the body and restore homeostasis. An herb for our modern world, tulsi helps the body adapt to stress and anxiety, strengthens the immune system, regulates blood sugar, adrenal fatigue and hypothyroidism. For the last several decades medical researchers have studied the pharmacological effects of tulsi, including combating exposure chemical pollutants and heavy metals by protecting organs and tissue. Tulsi is called the “happy herb,” as taken regularly it can help reduce anxiety, stress and depression.
