Bacopa Monnieri which is commonly known as “Brahmi” or water hyssop has recently caught up the attention of the scientific community due to its tendency to improve brain health, memory and cognitive performance. It is a ‘brain boosting’ natural alternative to the commonly used psychotropic drugs. So, it is also known as a ‘Brain tonic’. Bacosides A and B are the two chemicals which improve the transmission of nerve impulses and increase the secretion of dopamine and serotonin, thus triggering brain relaxation.
