Not to be confused with the popular herb used in pesto, Holy Basil, also known as Tulsi, has been used in Ayurvedic medicine for millennia. In the 3,000-year-old text on Ayurveda, the Charaka Samhita, Holy Basil is called “the incomparable one” and is thought to be an earthly incarnation of the goddess Tulasi, consort of Lord Vishnu.
The adaptogenic herb is used to support the body’s response to stress, maintain healthy blood sugar levels, sustain the mind, and lift the spirit. As an adaptogen, Holy Basil helps the body maintain its biochemical balance. The herb has also shown antioxidant qualities that reduce inflammation.
The cannabis plant has also been used in traditional medicine for thousands of years. The cannabinoids found in the cannabis plant also have powerful anti-inflammatory and antioxidant qualities, similar to Holy Basil. It’s been found that CBD oil has a potent ability to relieve depression and anxiety, as well as relieve pain related to inflammation.
Combining organic Holy Basil tincture with full-spectrum CBD, which contains all cannabinoids, is a highly effective natural remedy. The two herbs act synergistically to create a profound nutraceutical, relieving both mental and physical discomfort.
While the strain of cannabis used to distill CBD is related to marijuana, it contains less than 3% THC, so it will not get you high. While CBD is readily available in most of the United States, it’s widely available online.
