Here are some important things to remember about it 👇
🔸 It is good to chew 2-3 leaves for 1-2 minutes a few times a week. It should not be chewed throughout the day.
🔸 Other ways to consume Tulsi is to make a tea by boiling it in water or having a Kada to treat cold and cough
🔸 Pregnant, trying to conceive, or breastfeeding women should avoid having it.
🔸 Tulsi is not sweet in nature; it is great for cleansing your mouth, salivary glands, and entire oral cavity. It can also help lower blood sugar levels.
🔸 As per Ayurveda, it also helps with 𝘢𝘷𝘢𝘳𝘢𝘯, which is basically a layer of toxins that does not just stay on the tongue but builds up over all your senses. It helps break through that avaran, penetrate it, and clear the toxins so your senses—not just your taste buds or your mouth, but all of your senses—become more awake.
🔸 Anything bitter and astringent (especially bitter) is very good for breaking through that avaran; the bitter taste is especially important for the buccal cavity.
🔸 Research shows that consumption of Tulsi is associated with better mood regulation, sleep and overall immunity
It is also said that keeping a Tulsi plant at home purifies the air and fills the space with peace and positive energy 🌿
