Starwest Botanicals Organic Holy Basil Leaf C/S - 4 Oz (113 G) -

Tulsi aka Holy Basil is a wonderful herb that will give you a relaxing & tasty cup of tea. Love my fresh organic herbs knowing that quality is so important in receiving the best medicinal product for the money.

Good tea. First time using but it seemed really fresh and good tasting.

Very good quality dried Tulsi. Great for mixed teas or use alone.

This tea is AMAZING. Im on day 2 of drinking it and Im level 10/10 relaxed. This is NOT a paid review (as much as I wish it was, lol) Not only am I relaxed, but it has helped with bloating and possibly helping in insulin regulation. I am not a medical provider, so you have to do your own research on it. I just wish I found it sooner!

This organic Holy Basil/Tulsi Leaf smells and tastes pretty good. It's potent and interesting in scent and taste. The leaves are super dark brown and they feel really dry, but seem fine. I've been taking spoonfuls of tulsi powder and chasing it with water, but I wanted it in the herb form as well. It's a really pleasant and a wonderful herb to own. Holy Basil is a fantastic calming adaptogen that comes from India. It has powerful calming, relaxing, uplifting and energizing properties. It's also well known for its ability to relieve anxiety, depression, and grief, and balance cortisol and blood sugar levels. Tulsi is a very protective herb, and it improves immune health to fend off colds and infections, strengthens digestion, decreases inflammation to relieve chronic pain, and can even protect against radiation to some degree. Blend this holy basil leaf with green tea to amplify the energy and anti-inflammatory effects. It has a lot of potential for using in nourishing, calming tea blends. Apparently this herb is the easiest adaptogen to grow and harvest in abundance. The other more calming adaptogenic herbs are shisandra berry, ashwagandha, and gotu kola. I love all adaptogens because they allow me to deal with my chronic pain and difficult symptoms with a more positive outlook. It's easier to stay calm in the face of ongoing distress. The powder Tulsi acts instantly as soon as you swallow it, so this herb may not be as immediately powerful, but used regularly over time, it can do wonders for your ability to deal with stress, pain, and other health issues and deficiencies. Update: I forgot to add.. this bag contains TONS of mini branches.. the sticks, twigs, and stems are sometimes thick and very long, and they occupy about half the bag. It's not fully cut and sifted, because large pieces are attached together. I've added a picture to show the twigs I pulled out from just one herbal tea blend.
