asil is a popular herb in El
Salvador. The plant has good
benefits for health. I used to
use basil for earaches and also for
stomachaches, since this plant helps
to remove the intestinal gases and is
good for digestion. Basil helps many
other diseases. Basil is popular in
many countries around the world. It
is good idea to keep basil in the garden at home. I love basil.
hichipince is a
popular herb in
my native country
El Salvador. The plant
has flowers with orange
petals. My mother used
chichipince to make a
medicine for me when I
cut my finger or feet. She
used to cut the leaves of
the chichipince and cook
them with water. Then
she poured it on my finger
or feet. Chichipince is
a natural herb. I think
chichipince is the best
medicine.
