Hello friends, this time I want to talk to you, about how important it is to know the properties that have some plants that we have in our homes; which were sown by our grandmothers.

Now, I am going to share with you the information of some aromatic medicinal plants among which we have:
Basil: In addition to being used as a seasoning in meals, for its delicate taste and smell; It is also used in infusion to help fight headache, depression, insomnia and to help digestion

As the basil is consumed in infusion and as condiments for meats in very little quantity, since its flavor is not pleasant to many palates.
