Scientists researching traditional Ayurvedic medicine discovered the use of Bacopa monnieri to help increase the ability to concentrate. Utilizing sophisticated screening, the researchers developed a proprietary, standardized extract of this succulent plant that grows in marshes in India and Southeast Asia, where it has been used for centuries to treat multiple conditions, comprising an optimum concentration of triterpene saponins with a minimum of 55± 5% of bacosides. The result: a novel extract, Bacopa55, which has been clinically proven effective in supporting mental acuity.
