Bacopa monnieri is a plant that has been used for thousands of years in India in traditional Ayurvedic medicine, also known as Brahmi. It grows up to 20 centimeters in height and is characterized by fleshy leaves and small white flowers. Its stem remains below the water level, unlike the leaves and flowers that remain above. In fact, Bacopa is usually found in humid and swampy environments near lakes or streams.

The powdered extract (Bacopa Monnieri Leaf Powder) of this plant is obtained from the dried and ground leaves and contains a rich phytocomplex, from which the main benefits derive.

According to Ayurvedic medicine, Bacopa is a plant indicated for the treatment of all brain diseases: from memory problems to psychological and nervous disorders.

Indian medicine is not the only one to use it, in fact even Chinese medicine knows the benefits of this plant, especially as an adaptogenic tonic, able to alleviate any problems in the male intimate sphere.

Instead, in the West, modern herbal medicine seems to confirm the ability of this plant to improve memory and cognition, also reducing anxiety and stress.

At a cosmetic level, bacopa is used for skin care, since having a restorative effect on the epidermis, it is able to relieve redness and similar skin situations.

It is also known for its excellent properties on the hair: it is in fact used for its revitalizing and purifying action, making it an excellent adjuvant in cases of dandruff or hair loss.
