Holy Basil has been held in high regard throughout India for thousands of years as a powerful anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and immune system modulator. It has been taken as a tea, powder, fresh leaf and mixed with other herbs.

Our unique liquid herbs are crafted through an advanced spagyric process to create the most bioavailable herbs. First, herbs are soaked in organic alcohol. When time has allowed the plant to dissolve, the remaining matter is reduced without chemicals to a white ash rich in trace minerals and then rejoined with the original extract. It’s time-consuming but the end result is a herbal formula with all the valuable minerals present in the plant’s natural state.

Holy Basil extract (Ocimum tenuiflorum) equiv. to 9 mg per drop.

Non-medicinal ingredients: Certified organic alcohol, distilled water.

30–60 drops (1.5–3 mL) taken 4 times per day. Best taken right before your daily 10-minute meditation.

What is the source of alcohol used in Botanica tinctures?
Botanica uses certified organic USP pharmaceutical grade non-GMO corn-derived ethyl alcohol as an extraction method. The alcohol enhances absorption of the herbal constituents in the body and the tinctures have a dosage that can easily be varied if necessary.

Is the new packaging, specifically the boxes for the liquid herbs sustainably made?
Rest assured, our boxes are recyclable, made with FSC-certified post-consumer paper, and printed with vegetable-based ink.
