Bacopa monnieri (L) belongs to the Scrophulariaceae family and commonly known as Brahmi has been used in Ayurvedic system of medicine for centuries.

The triterpenoid saponins and other 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, restoration of synaptic activity and modulating the cholinergic and GABAergic neurotransmission, and ultimately improves nerve impulse transmission.

Bacosides appear to have antioxidant activity in the hippocampus, frontal cortexand striatum. Bacopa extracts modulate the expression of certain enzymes involved in generation and scavenging of reactive oxygen species in the brain. It exerts a protective effect against DNA damage in astrocytes and human fibroblasts.
