Potential benefits: what research shows

Food-science research describes basil seeds as a source of dietary fibre and mucilage, with protein and seed oils also present. Their mucilage absorbs water and contributes texture to drinks and desserts. Composition varies between seed varieties. Reliable clinical evidence for increasing testosterone, improving sperm count or treating erectile dysfunction with these seeds has not been established.

How to use

For food use, clean and soak the seeds in plenty of clean water until fully hydrated before adding them to a drink or food. Do not swallow a spoonful of dry seeds. Follow a qualified practitioner’s instructions for a medicinal recipe.

Precautions

People with swallowing difficulty should seek advice before consuming swelling seeds. For children, use only with appropriate adult guidance. If you use the seeds medicinally, have a medical condition or take medicines, discuss the preparation with a qualified clinician.
