This popular culinary herb produces its oil by steam distillation of the leaves and flowering tops of the plant. There are many chemotypes of this oil but this chemotype has a higher percentage of thymol, which is regarded as being useful for respiratory and throat infections. Sweet basil is enlivening, comforting and helpful for clarity and strength of mind as well as body systems as it has beneficial action on the respiratory and digestive systems.

Ocimum basilicum

Can be used for massage when diluted with a SOiL carrier oil or can be used in a diffuser.
