Product Description

Tulsi Juice (or holy basil) is particularly known for its ability to help the body deal with stress. However, its not known as the "Queen of Herbs for only that! Read on to find out the amazing benefits of including tulsi as a regular part of your healthy lifestyle. 

• Tulsi Lowers Stress and Anxiety: Tulsi is a calming herb that produces relaxation effects. However, on its own tulsi does not induce drowsiness or sleep. Tulsi prevented stress-induced changes in blood levels of corticosterone (in rats; comparable to cortisol levels in humans).
• Anti-inflammatory effects: Tulsi essential oil had strong anti-inflammatory effects in an animal model of granulomatous disease. COX-2 is a molecule commonly targeted by anti-inflammatory medications. Tulsi is a natural COX-2 inhibitor. A study on tulsi extract showed significant anti-inflammatory activity in human cells, validating its traditional use in treating cardiovascular disease.
• Tulsi improves cognitive function: A water extract of dried tulsi protected against drug- and aging- induced memory problems in mice, indicating that tulsi may be beneficial in the treatment of cognitive disorders such as Alzheimers disease and dementia.
• Tulsi helps protect the heart: Tulsi extract may prevent cardiovascular disease by inhibiting mmyeloperoxidase (MPO), an oxidative enzyme that may cause plaque accumulation in the arteries (known as atherosclerosis)
• Tulsi addressed high blood pressure: Because tulsi is rich in potassium (18,991 g/g), according to a trace element study, it may be useful for balancing high blood pressure. The fatty oil from tulsi seeds has blood pressure-lowering (hypotensive) effects.
• Tulsi helps diabetes and blood sugar imbalance: In Type 2 diabetes patients (DB-RCT),tulsi lowered fasting blood sugar levels by 17.6% and post-meal blood sugar levels by 7.3%
• Tulsi protects the liver: An alcohol extract of tulsi leaf at 200 mg/kg body weight per day was shown to protect the liver from toxin-induced damage. The addition of milk thistle (50 mg/kg) to tulsi (100 mg/kg) was shown to have a synergistic effect in liver protection.
• Tulsi protects against and heals stomach ulcer: Tulsi decreases problematic acid-pepsin secretion, and breakdown of cells that line the stomach. In addition, tulsi increases the protective mucus in the stomach. An alcohol extract of tulsi leaves (eugenol content 5%) at a dose of 50-200 mg/kg, twice daily for five days orally, was dose-dependently protective against some types of stomach ulcers (alcohol-induced, but not aspirin-induced)
• Tulsi works as antioxidants: Strong antioxidant capacity was measured from tulsi essential oil and was particularly correlated with its eugenol content .
• Tulsi may help reduce pain: Animal studies (mice) showed an alcoholic leaf extract of tulsi reduced signs of pain, indicating effectiveness as an analgesic.
• Tulsi increase immune system: Daily ingestion of 300 mg capsules of tulsi leaf extract significantly increased IFN-y, IL-4, and T-helper cells, and natural killer cell activity all important components of the immune system.
