HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Tulsi-Holy Basil Positive Stress Response by Organic India

Our pharmacy team’s full take, with four database checks built into the cards below — a summary of what is known, not a grade of the product itself.

From our pharmacy team — supplement deep dive

Generated from HelloPharmacist’s pharmacist-curated databases and editorial rules · Last generated Jul 11, 2026

What’s inside

Full disclosure
Ingredient Transparency · database check
Full

Every active ingredient lists its own amount on the label.

Why this rating?
  • The label discloses an exact amount for 2 of its 2 active ingredients.
  • “Proprietary Organic Blend” is a proprietary blend — the label doesn't break down how much of each component you get.

Tulsi–Holy Basil Positive Stress Response contains 2 active ingredients: a proprietary organic blend and holy basil (also known as East Indian basil). The inactive ingredient is pullulan, a plant-derived capsule material.

Holy basil is the plant extract that provides the supplement's active components.

Does it work?

Not established
Evidence for Intended Use · database check
By FDA rules, dietary supplements can’t claim to treat, cure, or prevent disease — so labels speak in careful marketing language. We discern each product’s intended use from its name, label claims, and label statements, then grade the clinical evidence for that use. How these ratings are computed
Not established

The graded evidence we hold for these ingredients covers different conditions than the ones this product is marketed for, so there's no established rating for its stated use — see Holy Basil's own graded uses on its monograph.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: support stress response and immunity.
  • We looked for evidence on: Stress, Generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), Respiratory tract infections, Anxiety, Immune function, Adaptogenic support.
  • The closest evidence on file: Holy Basil is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Holy Basil is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Respiratory tract infections, Stress.

The evidence we hold doesn't establish how well this product works. Holy basil's effectiveness for generalized anxiety disorder, asthma, headache, respiratory tract infections, dental plaque, and diabetes are all rated as having insufficient reliable evidence to rate in our data.

That doesn't mean it doesn't work — it means rigorous clinical trials backing those claims aren't available in the sources we reviewed.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Holy Basil

How safe is it?

Well-documented data
Safety Information · database check
Well characterized

Adverse-effect, pregnancy, and general safety data are on file for most of these ingredients.

Why this rating?
  • We hold adverse-effect (side-effect) data for 1 of the 1 matched ingredient.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 1 of 1.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 1 of 1.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Holy basil is generally well tolerated in the short term, but high-quality long-term safety data are limited. The most common side effects reported are loose stools and nausea — a small number of trial participants taking capsules experienced these.

The safety data advises against use during pregnancy and breastfeeding, since animal data raise concerns and human safety isn't established for either.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Holy Basil

Meds to double-check

Moderate interaction found
Known Interaction Concern · database check
Moderate identified

The most serious documented interaction for these ingredients is Moderate. Check your medications for a personalized result.

Why this rating?
  • 1 of the 1 matched ingredient can interact with medications — Holy Basil.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs; diabetes medications.
  • For scale: 212 individual medications appear in the full list. A big number alone doesn't make a product dangerous — what matters is whether YOUR medication is on it, so run yours through the interaction checker on this page.

Before you start Tulsi–Holy Basil Positive Stress Response, double-check blood thinners like warfarin or aspirin, diabetes medications, and sedatives such as pentobarbital with your pharmacist. All three drug types have Moderate-severity interactions with holy basil documented in our data.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with no established evidence rating for its marketed use. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

This product may appeal to you if you're exploring herbal approaches to stress, but the evidence for how well it actually works isn't firm in our data. If you take blood thinners, diabetes medications, or sedatives, talk to your pharmacist before adding it.

Steer clear if you're pregnant or breastfeeding.
