Sweet basil (Ocimum basilicum) leaf and seed extracts alleviate neuronal dysfunction in aluminum chloride-induced neurotoxicity in Drosophila melanogaster Meigen model.

Basil is a powerful antioxidant with potential benefits for neurodegenerative diseases. Its leaf extract showed more neuroprotective activities compared to the seed extract. This study suggests basil could be a potential therapeutic option for managing neurodegenerative diseases.
