Brahmi

Brahmi (Bacopa monnieri) is described as the ‘brain herb’ by Ayurveda practitioners because of its proven neuroprotective properties. It is a time-tested nervine tonic that has the ability to improve brain health and rejuvenate the nervous system. Brahmi is considered a sattvic (pure and holistic) herb in Ayurveda because of its therapeutic capabilities to manage a wide range of health conditions. It can specifically protect brain cells from free-radical damage, control the inflammation of nervous tissue, and manage nervous imbalance. Regular use of Brahmi supplements can calm the brain, relieve stress and anxiety, improve mental clarity, and enhance memory and concentration. The use of Brahmi is also recommended for treating Alzheimer’s disease.
