Vegetables, Roots, and Spices
In this section, just as in the fruit section, we will cover some of the vegetables commonly available in North America. Almost all vegetables can and should be eaten raw and as freshly harvested as possible. If, however, fresh produce is not available, frozen vegetables are superior to canned vegetables, which I do not recommend.
Basil: There are many types of basil which have different flavors and chemical compositions. In Western folk medicine, basil is used to treat gastrointestinal problems such as stomach cramps and also to treat whooping cough, head colds, headache, and warts. Traditional Chinese medicine uses basil to promote blood circulation, help digestion, and to rid the body of inflammation (Leung pg. 32).
