Before or after a night of over-indulgence, help support your liver against those "morning after" feelings with this delicious tonic. Koni Holy Detox contains tulsi basil which acts as an adaptogen. An adaptogen is proposed to increase the body's resistance to stress, trauma, anxiety and fatigue. This herb is known to help the body detox and destress.
