About

Bacopa monnieri est une herbe ayurvédique traditionnellement utilisée pour améliorer la fonction cognitive. Ses composés actifs, les bacosides, modulent les systèmes de neurotransmetteurs sérotonine, dopamine et acétylcholine tout en favorisant l'activité antioxydante dans l'hippocampe. Plusieurs revues systématiques soutiennent de petites à modérées améliorations du rappel et de la vitesse de traitement de la mémoire après 8 à 12 semaines d'utilisation cohérente.

How It Works

Enhances synaptic communication by modulating serotonin, dopamine, and acetylcholine neurotransmitter systems; active bacosides promote antioxidant activity in the hippocampus and support dendritic branching and synaptic repair.
