Taking into account the positive effects on the body of basil, which is a medicinal plant for its high content of vitamin B1 and thiamine, which help with lack of appetite and digestive problems (colitis, ulcers, diarrhea and others). It is also rich in calcium, is an analgesic, antihistamine and natural antibiotic. It helps with memory and vision problems, acts as a diuretic, is rich in potassium. It helps strengthen the immune system and contains antibacterial properties, great for these times of pandemic (COVID-19).
It is also an aromatic plant and we can accompany it in meals and in the preparation of pesto sauce (Italian recipe) very tasty.
