Holy Basil
Not to be confused with one of the ingredients in pesto, Holy Basil is a medicinal herb from India. It’s highly nutritious, containing vitamin A and C, calcium, zinc, iron, and chlorophyll. The plant acts as an adaptogen, meaning a substance that helps the body adapt to stress, and keep your mental balance steady. Holy Basil may help reduce stress, forgetfulness, and exhaustion, and may assist with sleep issues. It’s also said to have some antidepressant and anti-anxiety properties.
