The comprehensive review of Bacopa monnieri, commonly known as Brahmi, presented in this book, establishes it as one of the most important and scientifically validated medicinal plants of Ayurveda. Starting from its ancient Vedic references as a Medhya Rasayana to its current status as a globally recognized nootropic nutraceutical, Bacopa has traveled a remarkable journey. Brahmi is a creeping herb, Family Scrophulariaceae, famous in Ayurveda as a brain tonic. Its active compounds are triterpenoid saponins called Bacosides (Bacoside A3, Bacopaside I, II, Bacopasaponin C) with jujubogenin aglycone, plus alkaloids Brahmine and Herpestine. Pharmacologically, Brahmi enhances learning, memory, attention and cognition by repairing damaged neurons, enhancing nerve impulse transmission and modulating neurotransmitters like acetylcholine, serotonin and dopamine. It possesses neuroprotective, antioxidant, anxiolytic, antiepileptic and anti-Alzheimer activities.
