What Is the Meaning of Holy Basil in Marathi, and How Is It Used in Ayurveda? - #12186
I’ve been hearing a lot about holy basil, but I want to know its significance in Marathi culture and Ayurveda. What is the meaning of holy basil in Marathi, and how is it used for various health conditions in Ayurvedic medicine? From what I understand, holy basil (also known as Tulsi) is highly revered for its immune-boosting, antibacterial, and anti-inflammatory properties. How does it help with respiratory issues, digestive health, and stress relief? How is holy basil typically consumed—should it be taken in tea form, as tinctures, or used as part of Ayurvedic formulations? What specific health conditions benefit from Tulsi? I’ve also heard that Tulsi is used for detoxification and improving skin health. How does it help purify the body and promote healthy, glowing skin? Lastly, are there any side effects or precautions to consider when using holy basil, especially for those with allergic conditions or digestive sensitivities?
