It is my son taking it, on a tip, I got him some for his Tourette's Syndrome. He's 32 yrs. He is on a few regular drugs including some Ativan and Prozac and keppra, but this has really helped him to relax and has even stopped some of his motor and vocal tics.

I have been taking daily inhaled corticosteroids for asthma for over 20 years. Holy Basil is the first herb I have come across that helps reduce the sensation of tightness or heaviness in the chest caused by asthma, without the stimulant effect typical of asthma medications (Holy Basil works similarly to Mucinex.)

I have been taking daily inhaled corticosteroids for asthma for over 20 years. Holy Basil is the first herb I have come across that helps reduce the sensation of tightness or heaviness in the chest caused by asthma, without the stimulant effect typical of asthma medications (Holy Basil works similarly to Mucinex.) Holy Basil also reduces stress, which can help promote sleep without feeling groggy or doped up. In fact, I find Holy Basil most useful against AM insomnia (waking too early with inability to get back to sleep). I began taking Holy Basil, initially, as an alternative to NSAIDS because it seems to help relieve muscular pain to some extent. I find Holy Basil works best in standardized capsule form on an empty stomach. When taking more than one capsule per day, it is possible to become hypoglycemic (for those who are prone, like me, to reactive hypoglycemia). My most surprising experience with Holy Basil came recently when I ate something that disagreed with me at dinner. The rest of the evening and the night that followed I experienced lower abdominal cramps. In the morning I awoke to my usual AM insomnia and took a Holy Basil capsule to get back to sleep. The intestinal cramps were gone within 40 minutes, and did not return.

I bought the Tulsi Sweet rose tea to help me relax at night before bed but it had the opposite effect of keeping me up all night. So now I drink it during the day to give me energy. I have felt warm after drinking it others mention in their reviews. I will continue to drink it to see if it helps with anxiety and mood, but not at night.

Works for me,easy drinking the tea,satisfactory. felt groggy awhile but I feel it overall helps to substitute coffee and relieve anxieties while boosting my moods and altogether eliminating bloating this is drinking a cup or two at night and the next morning I'm sure the overall energizing effect will follow this new groggy feeling as i with draw from coffee.

Dr.Oz said lose inches from belly without changing diet. 1000 mg a day. He said it will lower stress levels. I stared last thanksgiving and soon I heard myself humming? I was feeling happy?

I am a long time intractable pain person. I was measuring my belly and after months of 50 inches I found 49. I didn't lose weight, where did it go. Then then last month I weighed and lost 9#s. When I first looked this up people kept saying they felt happy and I do too. I am telling every body I meet about this. I am still in pain but I feel Happy.
