Bacopa Monnieri | Unpacking the Research
The Basics
Bacopa Monnieri, a perennial herb native to India, has been used in Ayurvedic medicine for centuries, mainly for enhancing memory and reducing anxiety. Modern research suggests it may enhance brain function, reduce ADHD symptoms, prevent anxiety and stress, and have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects. Specifically for cognitive benefits, it may improve memory and attention. However, although current research into the benefits of bacopa Monnieri look promising, they have not been deemed conclusive by the EFSA, please form your own opinion of the scientific conclusions below.
