Botanical Source: Ocimum sanctum L. (Holy Basil, Tulsi)
Used Part: Leaf
Active Components: Standardized for key markers such as Ursolic Acid, Total Phenolics, or Eugenol content.
Standardization: Available in various potencies (e.g., 2.5% Ursolic Acid, 4% Total Phenolics).

Our process honors the integrity of the sacred Tulsi plant while applying precise scientific control:
Sustainable Cultivation & Harvest: Sourcing of organically grown Ocimum sanctum leaves, harvested at peak phytochemical potency.
Gentle Drying & Preparation: Leaves are shade-dried or low-temperature dried to preserve volatile oils and delicate compounds, then carefully milled.
Selective Extraction: Utilizes a dual-solvent (water and ethanol) extraction method to capture both water-soluble polysaccharides and alcohol-soluble phenolics, terpenes (like ursolic acid), and essential oil components.
Filtration & Concentration: The combined extract is filtered to remove plant material and concentrated under low-temperature vacuum to preserve thermolabile actives.
Standardization & Blending: The concentrated extract is analytically tested and blended to achieve a specified, consistent level of marker compounds (e.g., ursolic acid).
Drying & Final Processing: The standardized liquid is spray-dried into a fine, free-flowing powder using carriers that protect the active profile.
Quality & Potency Verification: Final product is analyzed via HPLC/UPLC for marker compounds, and tested for safety, heavy metals, and microbiology.
