Product Details

North American diets are often rich in sugary or carbohydrate-rich foods leading to challenges in managing blood sugar levels. Stress can lead to higher levels of cortisol in the body. Both these conditions can lead to health concerns such as weight gain, inflammation, Metabolic Syndrome X (pre cardiovascular disease or pre-diabetic condition), cardiovascular disease, and diabetes. Holy Basil offers a natural way to manage both blood glucose levels and stress.

Holy Basil (Ocimum tenuiflorum) has been shown to possess powerful adaptogenic properties and has been used to enhance the body's ability to respond to stress and minimize the negative effects of stress on the body. In India, holy basil is known as tulsi, which translates as "incomparable one." Studies have demonstrated that Holy Basil can support carbohydrate metabolism and, as a result, healthy blood glucose levels. Holy Basil is revered as a sacred plant in Ayurveda, the traditional therapeutic system of India. NOW® Holy Basil Extract 500 mg is standardized to contain 2% ursolic acid.
