I’m so excited and privileged to write and introduce this “Queen of Herbs” Holy Basil Tulsi, which is an ancient wisdom for today’s world.

When I came across an article how this “Mother Medicine of Nature” Tulsi is gaining so much popularity and subjected to growing modern scientific examination and verification, my first reaction was, “this single agent herb sounds too good to be true.” Yet, there must be some compelling reasons why Tulsi has, for thousand of years, remained one of the most cherished of India’s sacred healing plants. In addition to being a pillar of India’s traditional Ayurvedic holistic health system, Tulsi continues to be spiritually honored daily by millions. So, it’s not really surprising to discover that modern science is accumulating evidence in support of many of the traditional health promotion and disease treatment uses of Tulsi.

Reasearch showed impressive evidence that Tulsi can provide you, by:

• Helping boost your respiratory system
• Supporting your healthy vision
• Delivering you anti-oxidant protection against free radicals
• Helping you alleviate minor discomfort and irritation
• Providing you with the calming effect and stress relief
• Helping bolster your immune system
• Aiding you in enhancing your stamina
• Helping you promote a healthy metabolism
• Boosting your digestive system health
• Helping you maintain blood sugar levels in the normal range
• Providing you with skeletal and joint support
• Aiding you in supporting normal cholesterol levels

The West is clearly in the midst of a major paradigm shift away from its former almost exclusively reactive disease-oriented therapeutic and preventative system, managed by medical personnel, to a more proactive, multi-disciplinary, public health promotion approach. In addition to a rapidly expanding reliance on “alternative” or “complementary” health care practitioners, a significant “self-care revolution” is clearly underway, in which individuals are increasingly taking charge of their own health. There is growing public and professional awareness, that many non-medical aspects of day-to-day life can significantly favor health or be harmful to it. In addition to biological fitness, general quality of life issues, including spiritual, dietary, lifestyle, political/economic and environmental factors are recognized as essential components of a positive healthy society. Expect this major paradigm shift to be very visible this incoming year.
