Bacopa monnieri is a small, creeping herb with fleshy leaves that grows in wetlands and along riverbanks across India. In Ayurveda it is known as brahmi, and it has been described in classical texts for many centuries.
A common name mix-up
In some parts of India, the name brahmi is also used for Centella asiatica (gotu kola or mandukaparni), a different plant. Always check the botanical name on the label.
What are bacosides?
Bacosides are natural compounds found in bacopa. Many extracts are standardised to a stated percentage of bacosides, while others give an extract ratio such as 10:1. The two are measured differently, so compare like with like.
