What is the effect of chewing tulsi on teeth enamel?

Answer 1

Tulsi is good for health but not good for chewing. Tulsi contains some small dose of a slightly harmful acid and you know the medium of our mouth is alkaline so this acidic medium can react with the the alkaline medium and causetooth decay. So in my view you should instead opt for a tulsi`s juice as it is dilute. Tulsi have features that are helpful inside the body and it is very necessary.
