Ancient Apothecary Holy Basil Essential Oil - The small, bushy holy basil shrub is native to India?an annual plant with lavender-hued flowers. But don?t be fooled by its diminutive appearance, because it has big benefits! In fact, holy basil can be incredibly beneficial to human health, primarily due to its fascinating composition of its essential oil, containing eugenol, camphor, flavonoids, nerol and various terpenes. This rich blend of compounds can deliver numerous health benefits. Holy basil, also known as tulsi, (meaning ?the incomparable one?) has been historically used in Ayurveda as an ?adaptogen? to help counterbalance life stressors. In addition to offering stress relief, holy basil is said to offer relief from respiratory discomfort, to soothe occasional fevers, to support a healthy microbial balance, and to support a healthy heart. Holy basil blends well with eucalyptus, juniper, lemon, neroli or rosemary?and is best used with these via diffusion.
