Basil Tea

$12.00

Basil (Ocimum sanctum) is also known as the Tulsi herb. Known firstly as an anti-depressant, this herb speaks to the adrenal cortex, which in turn prompts the body to regulate the hormones that are responsible for taking care of stress.

An interesting herb that has some unique uses, such as overcoming jet lag and improving memory.

Other commonly used applications for Basil tea are skin infections, fevers, intestinal parasites, and diarrhea.

Being an anti-inflammatory, this herb can also be useful against arthritis.
