What Is Tulsi?

Tulsi is regarded as the Queen of Herbs in Ayurveda. You may be surprised to learn that this herb has been used in Ayurvedic medicine as an herbal therapeutic for more than 3,000 years. It’s main use is in helping to reduce stress, anxiety, and depression.

A study published in The Journal of Ayurveda and Integrative Medicine: “The predominant cause of global morbidity and mortality is lifestyle-related chronic diseases, many of which can be addressed through Ayurveda with its focus on healthy lifestyle practices and regular consumption of adaptogenic herbs. Of all the herbs used within Ayurveda, Tulsi … is preeminent.”

Also called Holy Basil and Ocimum sanctum, Tulsi is popular for its healing properties. It is known for its stress alleviation properties, and many use it as an all-natural sleeping aid. Krishna Tulsi is a variety of Tulsi that has  dark green/purple foliage and a purple stem.

Regular consumption of Tulsi may help protect and detoxify the body’s cells and organs. Benefits may include reduction of stress, anxiety, and depression by calming the mind and offering psychological benefits, such as anti-anxiety and anti-depressant activity with effects comparable to diazepam and antidepressant drugs. It may also enhance memory and cognitive function and protect against age-induced memory deficits.

What Is Krishna Tulsi?

In a scientific study titled Tulsi – Ocimum sanctum: An Herb for All Reasons,” the study’s author notes, “Many of the physiological benefits of tulsi can be attributed to its ability to assist with the body’s internal housekeeping and protection of the body from toxin-induced damage. These functions are often attributed to tulsi’s high content of phenolic compounds and anti-oxidant properties, with Krishna tulsi (black/purple variety) having a higher phenolic content and anti-oxidant capacity than white Vana (wild) tulsi.”

Krishna Tulsi may also help to regulate cortisol levels and blood sugars. The herb contains Eugenol, its main bioactive ingredient, which binds to cortisol receptors to regulate its levels. Many health professionals, scientists, and herbalists alike have recommended the use of Tulsi in the NeuroEndoMetabolic (NEM) Stress Response.
