Tulsi (Ocimum sanctum)

Tulsi harvest.

Tulsi grows wild all over India and has been used for thousands of years in Ayurvedic Medicine. Beloved as an adaptogen, Tulsi helps the body respond to daily physical, chemical, metabolic, and psychological stressors and helps restore vitality and renew energy. It is also a powerful nervine that can help soothe frazzled nerves and emotions.

Tulsi tastes sweet and slightly peppery as a looseleaf tea or tincture dropped in hot water, and it can support healthy digestion. It has also traditionally been used as a tonic for the upper respiratory system and lungs, for immune system support, and for spiritual and emotional growth. Some folks like to take it to prepare for meditation and other practices that expand the mind. We include Tulsi in our Mellow Mood Calming Blend, Dragon Tamer Mouthwash, and Root of Wellness Bitters.
