Phytosun Aroms’organic linalool basil essential oil is a treasure of nature with many benefits. This annual herb, growing 20 to 50 cm tall, is characterized by its branching stems and oval leaves of a vibrant dark green color, sometimes with a wine-red hue due to anthocyanins. Its flowers, ranging from yellowish-white to reddish, grow in clusters of six in whorls, creating a fascinating natural spectacle.
Among the cultivated varieties are large-leaved basil, often called pistou or Genovese basil, purple basil, lemon basil, and Thai basil. Basil, known as “pistou” in southern France and as the key ingredient in Italian pesto, is native to Asia. The Greeks discovered it through Alexander the Great, and in medieval Europe, it was used in witchcraft.
Basil essential oil has anthelmintic, insecticidal, antispasmodic, and neuroregulatory properties. It also acts as an antioxidant, venous decongestant, prostatic decongestant, anti-infective, antifungal, and digestive and hepatobiliary tonic. It normalizes the intestinal flora and relieves pain thanks to its anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties.
The benefits ofbasil essential oil are numerous and varied. It is primarily used for its nerve-balancing effects due to its high concentration of linalool, a compound with anxiolytic properties. Linalool acts as an antagonist to glutamate, an excitatory neurotransmitter, thereby preventing the activation of glutamate-specific receptors.
Basil essential oil also possesses antifungal properties due to its linalool and eugenol compounds. Although these components are more effective individually, their synergy within the essential oil enhances their antifungal action. Furthermore, linalool and eugenol are known for theiranti- -inflammatory, and analgesic effects, inhibiting the transmission of pain signals and reducing the production of pro- cytokines.
Basil essential oil is also used for its antispasmodic properties, particularly for digestive disorders. Estragole, although present in small quantities in this chemotype, acts on the stomach and intestines to block the transmission of nerve signals responsible for smooth muscle contractions.

Read the article on the blogTo fully understand the sacred dimension that surrounds this basil, it is important to retrace its steps, and to go to its original land, that is to say India. There, basil is just as sacred as verbena was to the Romans, if not more so. Very small "temples" are erected there, as well as veritable altars surrounded by walls and pillars, in honor of…
