What if a plant growing in your neighbor's courtyard could shield your cells from radiation damage and also fix your bloating, your hormones, and that cold you can't shake? Meet Tulsi, the herb Ayurveda calls "the incomparable one".
In this episode of Actionable Ayurveda, Salila Sukumaran unpacks Tulsi (Holy Basil), the herb Sanskrit named "the incomparable one" and Ayurvedic texts call a Rasayana, a rejuvenator that restores the body to wholeness rather than just masking a symptom.
Pulled from six generations of healers in her family's lineage in Kerala, Salila shares the exact home remedies her mother taught her as a child, including:
1. The Monday-morning Tulsi tea that curbs hunger and clears brain fog
2. A 30-second hiccup remedy
3. A quick nausea fix for travel days
4. A 3-ingredient acne face pack
5. Her mother's traditional Tulsi Kashaya for colds, cough, and immunity
If you're running on 47 unread emails, navigating hormonal shifts or just trying to feel like yourself again — this one's for you.
