It is believed to cure even swine flu. But i remember having read somewhere long back, that consuming too much basil will stop reproduction. It takes the sexual urge away. May be thats why saints of the past used it extensively thx


myLot reputation of 93/100. chaitra001 (622)   ranked 98 out of 11,358 in health  5 months ago

Hi preethaanju I dint know that it stops reproduction.. Is it really true??

Hi Chaitra!happy
You have highlighted a very interesting Indian medicine. It is really good for our immune system and I wish that every house-hold should have a Basil plant in his house. We've four well grown basil plants in our home and we keep using Basil leaves in tea etc. and keep chewing raw leaves each day. It is understood that it help strengthen our immune system and protect us from much hyped and talked about Swine flu.

Basil is very easy to grow as well. In the UK it grows well outside in the summer months, and if grown on a windowsill it will grow through the winter as well. I usually use it to add to meals that have cooked tomato in them (pasta dishes etc.), but it is good to know that it is also very good for your health.

I think this is one surviving Indian tradition which is very logical. That spoonful of 'Holy Water" (Teertham) twice every day is made with Tulasi leaves and protects health. It is indeed the best of preventive medicine.

It is good for, Digestion, cough, cold, fever and many other common deceases.
