MEDICINAL IMPORTANCE OF OCIMUM: Treament of fever, cough, common cold, mouth ulcer & to reduce foul smell from mouth.

Ocimum is commonly known as Ocimum sanctum. Ocimum belongs to a family called Lamiaceae. In sanskrit this plant is called as TULASI.

Ocimum for fever, cough & common cold:



Take fresh and tender leaves of ocimum (which should not contain seed) soak it in water for 5 minutes. use fresh water and squeeze the ocimum leaves and collect the juice from that. Try to collect 3 to 5 tea spoon of ocimum juice but don't use blender/mixer. 
Add a pinch of freshly powdered pepper to 2 tea spoon of ocimum juice and consume it before in take of food ( before half an hour). Take this medicine for about 2 days (6 times) to get the expected result.

NOTE: Both dark leaf ocimum and bright leaf ocimum are preferable.


Mouth ulcer & foul smell:


 Take 3-5 fresh & tender ocimum leaves and chew it for about 10-15 minutes after dinner. It'll help to reduce the burning sensation and cures the ulcer in the mouth.
Since ocimum contain many aromatic alkaloids it will reduce the foul smell from the mouth to a maximum extent.
