While the late summer is slowly shifting to fall, it is important to take care of our digestion. With cold mornings and hot days it can be a challenge to find a balance between eating warm and cooling food. Basil offers a healthy solution: it brings balance during this seasonal change and helps the body to prepare for colder weather.

Basil is full of health benefits and helps to support a healthy microbial balance, muscle discomfort, calm common digestive rods and more. It contains orientate And viceninTwo water -soluble flavonoids, which both support healthy white blood cells and protect cell structures, as well as chromosomes against radiation and oxygen -based damage. The fleeting oils of Basil, which contain estragole, LINALOOL, Cineole, Eugenol, Sabinene, Myrcene and Limonene, help keep bacterial growth under control.

For centuries, Basil is a basic ingredient of traditional cuisine in South Asia, Africa, the Middle East and the Mediterranean Sea. The scent is both soothing and stimulating. The Hindu culture uses basil in purification ceremonies and the Voodoo tradition includes it in fortune -telling rituals. Here are two recipes to keep Basil for the winter months and to enjoy late summer food.
