Bacopa Monniera is a small plant that grows in moist, damp areas throughout Asia and has been widely used in Ayurvedic medicine at least as far back as the 6th century. One of its common names is water hyssop and the whole plant is used medicinally. As with most herbs it has many uses. Most common include increasing cognitive ability, memory, nerve tonic, cardiotonic, diuretic, in asthma, bronchitis, mental imbalances, depression, anxiety, and epilepsy. It contains over a dozen active constituents, the most well-known being luteolin, beta- sitosterol, and d-mannitol. The constituents responsible for Bacopa’s cognitive effects are bacosides A and B (1). One double blinded human study (2) showed it to significantly improve learning and memory while also decreasing anxiety. A similar study in seniors observed that taking 300 mg of Bacopa monnieri daily significantly improved the speed of processing visual information, learning rate, and memory, compared with the placebo treatment (3). A third study on 54 seniors showed in- creased memory and decreased anxiety and depression compared to placebo (4). Another study elicited a similar reaction to lorazepam (5). It also can act as a strong antioxidant (6) especially in the antioxidant activity in the hippocampus, frontal cortex, and striatum (7). Bacopa aids in the repair of damaged neurons (8) A double blinded study done on 36 children with ADHD showed improvement in memory as well as paired associate learning tasks. This improvement was maintained at least 4 months following cessation of bacopa (9). Another ADHD study with 31 ADHD children showed Bacopa reduced symptoms such as restlessness, poor self-control, inattention, and impulsivity in 85% of the children (10). In animal studies high doses of Bacopa have raised levels of T4 without affecting T3 levels (11) making it possibly useful in hypothyroidism. Bacopa has been noted in animal models to decrease the toxicity of morphine, possibly making it useful in patients going off of morphine based medications (12).
