Bacognize® Bacopa Monnieri Mode of Action
Bacopa Monnieri is a plant extract that has been a treasured part of Ayurvedic tradition for thousands of years. It increases acetylcholine in the body, but also contains chemical compounds called bacosides that are unique only to it, providing exceptional cognitive and mood benefits.
These bacosides enhance the communication between neural synapses (bulletproofing your memory) and interact with serotonin receptors to give extra memory power while providing support for stress and mood.
We use Bacognize®, the highest quality extract on the market, expertly crafted to contain more of these Serotonin-Active Bacopa Glycosides, or SABG. We have chosen this standardized extract which contains a hefty 12% of these SABGs per serving!
Bacopa Monnieri extract suppresses an enzyme that breaks down acetylcholine, called acetylcholinesterase (or AChE), in the cerebral cortex. Since the enzyme responsible for breaking down acetylcholine is reduced, the amount of available acetylcholine remains higher and cognitive health is supported (3).
Together, these mechanisms provide the brain with improved conditions that support cognitive health, mood, and memory (1).
