Botanically known as Bacopa Monnieri, Brahmi (derived from the name of Lord Brahma and Goddess Saraswati) is a perennial herb which has often been regarded as a brain booster. Brahmi is a small succulent herb with numerous branches, rooting at the nodes. It has small flowers that are light purple or white in color with not more than four or five petals. The whole plant including the flowers can be used for medicinal purposes. It has a bitter and sweet taste and is known to impart a cooling energy. Brewing Brahmi leaves helps to manage cold, chest congestion and bronchitis by clearing out the mucus from the air passages which helps ease breathing. Taking Brahmi powder along with milk helps improve brain functions by preventing brain cell damage caused by free radicals due to its antioxidant property. It is used as a memory enhancer and brain tonic for kids due to its property to improve cognition. It also reduces pain and inflammation in the throat and respiratory tracts due to its anti-inflammatory property. Excessive intake of Brahmi should be avoided as it may cause nausea and dry mouth.
