Exotic basil is a very fragrant annual plant with white or pinkish flowers in spikes. Exotic Basil essential oil has many virtues, including

- Digestive tonic, carminative, helps eliminate gas

Exotic basil essential oil is renowned for its powerful antispasmodic properties. The linalool present in the essential oil acts by opposing the release of acetylcholine, thus reducing muscle contractions. It also interferes with calcium channels at the neuromuscular junction, reducing striated muscle contraction. This action makes it an effective musculotropic antispasmodic, ideal for relieving muscle spasms and gastrointestinal disorders.
Exotic basil essential oil also has remarkable analgesic and anti-inflammatory properties. The linalool present in the oil binds to opioid receptors, exerting an opioid-like analgesic action. It also reduces carrageenan-induced edema, demonstrating an anti-inflammatory action. This essential oil can be beneficial in relieving pain and inflammation associated with conditions such as arthritis and muscle pain.
Exotic basil essential oil has significant antimicrobial and antiparasitic properties. It is effective against a variety of bacteria, including Campylobacter jejuni, Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus, as well as parasites such as Giardia lamblia and lice. What's more, the methylchavicol contained in the oil is toxic to many insect pests, making it an effective natural insecticide.
This essential oil also has a beneficial effect on the central nervous system. Linalool promotes learning and memory by stimulating nicotinic receptors, while having a sedative action that reduces motor activity and promotes sleep. In addition, it acts on glutamate receptors, inducing an anticonvulsant effect that can be beneficial in the treatment of epileptic seizures.
In addition to its main properties, exotic basil essential oil also has other health benefits. It acts as a liver tonic, promoting liver health and aiding digestion. It also has anti-allergic, antiviral, anthelmintic and intestinal flora-normalizing properties. This essential oil is also renowned for its tonic action on the digestive and hepatobiliary systems.
