    ​   ​Fitting it in – Herbs and spices for better mental health 
   
   
                      
 
    
spices and herbs are often used in tandem to treat mental health 
conditions.One such  herb is holy basil, also known as “Tulsi,” or 
“Incomparable One” in Hindu cultures. Holy basil,     native to ​tropical Asian 
climates​, is held in high esteem within Indian tradition and is used by 
several ancient cultures for its medicinal properties. 
 
Scientific study​ seems to support holy basil’s usefulness. Experts at Father 
Muller Medical College in Karnataka, India, highlight the plant’s 
“anti­inflammatory, analgesic, antipyretic, anti­stress” properties 
 
 Supported by traditional Chinese medicine, recent studies in the United 
States have looked at astragalus for possible use in ​cancer and AIDS 
patients​.
