A common plant in Indian households, tulsi has a number of medicinal uses. Due to its potent germicidal, fungicidal, anti-bacterial and anti-biotic properties, tulsi tea is a powerful remedy against any kind of fever, even if it’s caused by a disease like malaria. Drinking this tea regularly can regulate blood sugar and improve insulin sensitivity, making it useful for people who have diabetes. Chewing a few tulsi leaves on an empty stomach is recommended because tulsi contains eugenol, an antioxidant that improves heart health by reducing cholesterol and blood pressure. Tulsi also helps dissolve kidney stones, treat cancer, soothe respiratory ailments, cure headaches, beat stress and improve skin and hair health.
