Basil is a unique plant that has held a special place in our ancient traditions. For many centuries, it has been recognized not only as a delicious herb but also as a natural remedy that supports human health.
In Ancient India, basil was considered a sacred plant, while the peoples of Central Asia valued it as a healing gift that restores health. Especially in summer, basil was a regular guest on dining tables.
Its fragrant aroma and beneficial effects on the body made basil important both in cooking and in medicine. Added to salads or consumed as tea, basil helped strengthen the immune system.
The great representative of Eastern medicine, Ibn Sina, described basil as a remedy that strengthens the heart, eases colds, and lifts the mood.
The benefits of basil lie in its rich composition of vitamins and minerals. It contains vitamins A, C, and K, along with iron, magnesium, calcium, and zinc.
Each of these substances plays a vital role in the body — they are beneficial for the heart, blood circulation, nervous system, bones, and skin.
