Herbs and spices are a great, healthy way to give flavor to food. Basil is a tasty source of vitamins, particularly K and A- both of which are great anti-oxidants. Anti-oxidants help prevent free radical damage which can cause inflammation. Over time inflammation causes damage to your organs, contributing to disease.
I love fresh basil. I've tried growing it but tend to eat the leaves faster than they can grow. Maybe I should plant several. I wonder how many plants it would take to always have an abundance to harvest?
Cool! Thanks for the demo!
