    In addition to its culinary uses, basil is also used in perfumes, soaps, shampoos and dental preparations.
    It is recommended in Herbals for the relief of gas pains, nausea, morning sickness, and as a cure for worms and worts.
    When taken internally, it can help stop stomach cramps because it is an antispasmodic. It will also alleviate constipation and help indigestion. When applied externally, it can draw out insect, bee, wasp or snake venom.
