Basil can protect against the harmful effects of ageing, according to new research.
Its extract has long been used in the ancient system of Ayurvedic medicine practiced in India and other parts of Asia.
It is used as a rejuvenation drug, to promote a youthful state of physical and mental health.
The researchers, led by Dr Vaibhav Shinde from Poona College of Pharmacy, Maharashtra, India, studied the anti-ageing properties of the herb.
Their research will be presented at the British Pharmaceutical Conference in Manchester.
Dr Shinde said: 'The study validates the traditional use of herb as a youth-promoting substance in the Ayurvedic system of medicine. It also helps describe how the herb acts at a cellular level.'
She added that she would be using the herb in her own cooking after revealing the exciting results.
