Abstract

Basil seeds, originating from the Ocimum genus, comprise many bioactive compounds and nutrients, providing multiple health benefits. Basil seeds contain notable amounts of protein, fiber, omega-3 s, potassium, magnesium, and calcium. Basil seeds have multiple functional properties and biological activity, such as antioxidant, antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, anticancer, anti-diabetic, anti-stress, cardioprotective effects etc. Intake of basil seeds is associated with advantages such as improved digestion, reduced body temperature, weight control, blood pressure regulation etc. Despite the extensive use of basil seeds in culinary practices and traditional medicine, their nutritional and functional characteristics remain insufficiently explored. The sole motive of this review is to provide information on the potential of basil seeds as a nutrient-rich functional food ingredient and highlight the health benefits and its application in various food industries.
