Tulsi Holy Basil Herbal Tea Or Tisane Loose Leaf Very Healthy Anxiety Sleep Stress Blood Sugar

Holy or Sacred Basil has been an Ayurvedic plant for centuries, as well as being used for traditional medical purposes, and within the Vaishnava tradition of Hinduism. Ocimum teniuflorum syn. Ocimum sanctum is widely cultivated throughout the Southeast Asian tropics and has escaped and is now naturalised in many parts of the Americas. It is said that it has been used since between 4000 and 5000 BCE and has definitely been referenced from between 3500 to 1600 BCE. It has long been considered an adaptogen, and as tea research tells us that benefits include naturally decreasing anxiety, and adrenal fatigue, as well as decreasing symptoms caused by hypothyroidism, unbalanced blood sugar levels, acne and other skin infections. I have read that it also helps protect the body from radiation poisoning and minimising damage from radiation treatments. It helps balance stress hormones such as adrenalin and cortisol. Also, a great source of Vitamin K, important in bone health and heart health.

It goes without saying that if you're pregnant (or are under the doctor for anything) caution should be exercised with herbal decoctions.
