Bacopa Monniera,
the Traditional Ayurvedic Brain Tonic
Bacopa monniera, also referred to as Bacopa monnieri, Herpestis monniera,
water hyssop, and "Brahmi," has been used in the Ayurvedic system of medicine
for centuries. Traditionally, it was used as a brain tonic to enhance memory
development, learning and concentration, and to provide relief to patients
with anxiety or epileptic disorders.
The plant has also been used in India and
Pakistan as a cardiac tonic. digestive aid, and to improve respiratory
function in cases of bronchoconstriction.
Recent research has focused
primarily on Bacopa's cognitive-enhancing effects, specifically memory,
learning, and concentration, and results support the traditional Ayurvedic claims.
Research on anxiety, epilepsy, bronchitis and asthma, irritable bowel syndrome,
and gastric ulcers also supports the Ayurvedic uses of Bacopa. Bacopa's
antioxidant properties may offer protection from tree radical damage in
cardiovascular disease and certain types of cancer.

Facts About the Bacopa Monniera Herb
Bacopa monniera, a member of the Scrophulariaceae family, is a
small, creeping herb with numerous branches, small oblong leaves,
and light purple flowers. In India and the tropics it grows naturally in
wet soil, shallow water, and marshes. The herb can be found at
elevations from sea level to altitudes of 4,400 feet, and is easily
cultivated if adequate water is available. Flowers and fruit appear in
summer and the entire plant is used medicinally.
Active Constituents and Pharmacokinetics
Compounds responsible for the pharmacological effects of Bacopa
include alkaloids, saponins, and sterols. Many active constituents--
the alkaloids Brahmine and herpestine, saponins d-mannitol and
hersaponin, acid A, and monnierin--were isolated in India over 40
years ago. Other active constituents have since been identified,
including betulic acid, stigmastarol, beta-sitosterol, as well as
numerous bacosides and bacopasaponins. The constituents
responsible for Bacopa's cognitive effects are bacosides A and B.
Mechanisms of Action
Since Bacopa's primary therapeutic use is to enhance cognitive function,
most research has focused on the mechanism behind these properties.
The triterpenoid saponins and their bacosides are responsible for
Bacopa's ability to enhance nerve impulse transmission.
The bacosides aid in repair of damaged neurons by enhancing kinase
activity, neuronal synthesis, and restoration of synaptic activity, and ultimately
nerve impulse transmission.
