About
Alexander the Great is believed to have brought basil to ancient Greece. Basil is also considered a symbol of love, eternal life, purification, and protection in Hindu culture. In some folklore, basil is used as a good luck charm for protection and to attract wealth. Basil essential oil has an herbaceous aroma that refreshes the mind when inhaled and soothes fatigued muscles when massaged into the skin. Basil Vitality™ may support the circulatory and digestive systems when combined with a healthy diet and regular exercise. Its sweet, herbaceous flavor makes it a great addition to your favorite savory recipes. Basil and Basil Vitality are the same essential oil.
