Holy Basil (Ocimum sanctum), also known as Tulsi in Ayurvedic medicine, has been used as a medicinal herb for thousands of years in India. It is known as a balancing herb, and is popular for its ability to improve energy, mental alertness, relieve stress and elevate the mood. As an adaptogen with a wide array of applications, there is a growing amount of scientific research to support the herbs traditional uses. Revered as an adaptogenic herb, with antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, immunomodulatory, anti-depressant, neuroprotective, and cardioprotective properties, one can imagine how its name Tulsi, means “incomparable one”.
Gunpowder green tea (Camellia sinensis) is a variety of green tea, which features individually rolled tea leaves which form a small round pellet or “pearl”. The name gunpowder originated at a time when it was said that the rolled leaves resembled gunpowder. One of the most widely consumed teas in the world, green tea, which has its origins in China, has been extensively studied for its health promoting and protective benefits, which are in part due to the presence of L-theanine, an amino acid that has been studied for its range of health benefits.
Peppermint (Mentha piperita) is commonly used as a digestive aid that can have a positive effect on many digestive conditions. The volatile oils responsible for these effects have such a stimulating, refreshing aroma, that people commonly use the smell alone as a way to help them feel energized.
Licorice root (Glycyrrhiza glabra) is prized for its sweet flavor and has a long history of medicinal use around the world. It has uses in the respiratory, digestive and endocrine systems and is a common ingredient in herbal teas.
