Holy Basil (Tulsi)

Ocimum tenuiflorum · Tulsi

A revered adaptogenic herb in Ayurveda, studied for how the body responds to everyday stress. Its eugenol and ursolic acid are among the active compounds.

What the research says

Human studies reviewed in the literature report effects of tulsi on stress-related symptoms and general well-being. Adaptogen research is young, so we frame it as a thoughtful daily ritual rather than a cure.
