NEW DELHI | June 2025 Science is catching up with Ayurveda.
A study reported by The Times of India reveals that chewing just three fresh Tulsi (holy basil) leaves may significantly lower cortisol, the stress hormone, within 40 minutes.
Tulsi acts as an adaptogen—helping the body manage stress and contributes to better sleep, focus, and immunity.
Beyond its chemical benefits, even the mindful act of chewing Tulsi leaves can provide a moment of calm in high-stress environments.
