🙂 Absolutely it works. Having gone through the fog of menopause, it (along with Lions Mane) have worked magnificently to help with recall. I take it as a liquid extract combination 20 minutes before food twice a day, and in the morning I use the dried leaves to make herbal tea. I also have a plant at home and (if it survives my lack of green fingers) I was thinking about using the leaves in a salad. Personally the benefits I have felt from it, are : clearer thinking, banishes brain fog, better recall, helps with moods and more energy in myself, plus I seem less stressed at work.
I haven't used it for about 4 months but prior to that, I was on it for two years. I would start remembering odd things from 35 years ago, e.g just being in a car on the freeway as a kid and other odd fragments from my memory that I thought were long forgotten.
No wonder! I tried it for relaxation, however due to my PTSD.. it worsened my symptoms & caused my impulse control to be severely weakened. I’m so relieved to find out this is a normal effect.
😂😂 I started remembering old boyfriends (who I rather forgot) and have not thought about for 30 years. But on the plus side, I recently won a quiz with my recall.
My best friend has epilepsy and was bothered by nearly daily blackouts and spasms. Bacopa started working after about 2 weeks and now she has been seizure free for three months. None of the standard drugs had much of an effect for many years.
I've been taking it for a year and a half consistently, along with other things like Ashwagandha, 10 Mushroom extracts, Tumeric ect. I ran out of Bacopa 2 weeks ago and forgot to order more. I've been noticing heavy brain fog for a week now and was wondering wtf was going on & finally this morning I put two and two together. Just ordered more. I guess it works, wasn't quite sure until now.
This is very interesting. I am a plant lover and have started growing bacopa in my pond. It was given to me as a gift. I use many medicinal herbs and "weeds" in my daily life and I think I'll be adding bacopa to that list. Thanks so much!
When I heard of bacopa, I was told it can help you improve concentration; haven't notice any differences.What I did notice was tiredness, it made me so sleepy that I couldn't concentrate in anything(tried it for a month 500mg). The only benefit for me was relaxation so I guess for me its good for restful sleep.
Yes with me also makes me feel sleepy and low energie ! Then i have to take my DMAA or Dmae with coline in my pre workout ...iam trying to stop taking strong stimulants ..but this herbs dont give me energie i need ! Well maybe extrack of efedra will be the powerfull herb i need ...or Yohimbina
In our country it is suggested to take its 5 ml early in the morning and to leave it for 15 days after 3 months...almost for everyone herb recommended to skip it for few days and then to continue again
For me it seems to be the only one that works for anxiety. i have tried all of them, gingko biloba, Rhodiola rosea, L-theanine, Ashwagandha KSM-66, Inositol, NAC, Magnesium Glycinate.
@@yourinception My only guess is that I'm particularly susceptible to the " Acetylcholine Inhibitor" effect the herb provides. Ginko or even coffee I get intense withdrawals
My experience is this herb knocks it out of the park in terms of thinking clearly and getting things done on my to-do list. The bad side for me is towards the end of the effects I start to feel slightly awkward and unsocial. Does anybody else have these same effects?
It kind of does the opposite to me. It sedates me to the point of my add meds being non functional. I did like the mental charity and anxiolytic effect from it though
Yes I have the exct thng.... When I strt the med... It strt showing it effct on 2 to 3 day and last for 2 week... After that no effct evn i continue taking it... After that i feel awkward and usocial exanly like u....
I see you like to take supplements that contain many different herbs...And I understand your reasoning...But if you have a negative reaction, how do you know which herb you are reacting to? Wouldn't it be safer to introduce one herb at a time?
I tried it in a tea, shocking results first day didn't notice huge difference besides from the caffeine. The dose seemed low, but I am already stacking rhodiola and ginseng, eleuthero etc. I have not tried it on its own, but as part of a stack it seems to have good synergy with energizing roots and caffeine.
Hello YourInception, Thanks for your review. In my opinion, it would have been more helpful if you were specific: Which studies exactly do you refer to, and how does the study prove its positive effects? How exactly does it improve your personal performance? Is it a feeling? Do you have your personal ways of measuring it?
I agree, but I go through so many reports, findings, studies and personal experiences, that I simply can not put everything in the video. I do have a customized method of testing nootropics, which me and a few more experts designed it, to evaluate the effectivness. You can also test with playing memory and other personal performance related games before and after, and then compare.
Hello Sir Greetings from India Can Bacopa be taken with coffee for enhancing cognition. Because recently I had experimented with the same and to my shock, it really worked. I hope there are no such side effects. Please reply. Metta and Regards
Which adaptogens would you recommend combing this with? I was thinking 300mg ksm with 200mg bacopa and 200 rhodiola? Or any 2 or 3 combinations which would you recommend for a day in the office and then for the evening g relaxing at home? Thanks I appreciate your video!
Bacopa & Rhodila should work great, two of my favourite nootropics to begin with. I would also mention L-theanine and Lion's Mane Mushroom. Do test it out and see for yourself what combination works the best for you. We do have seperate videos on each individual adaptogen on our channel, if you want to learn about recommended dosages and benefits.
Thanks for this, now I understand Bacopa is what happened to my serotonin. I bought a gingko biloba product on a popular site which had added amino acids. It was great. But when I reordered and went with the larger bottle, I didn't notice the ingredients were different because the label colors hadn't changed. I take a prescription to keep my serotonin up, have to be careful not to take too much. Took this bacopa for six days before noticing different ingredients, my serotonin is too high and I'm wound up like I took too much of the prescription. So, learned something today. The popular site page looked just like it was two different sizes of the same product, but no, they poisoned me. :) Just a little, will be back to normal in a day or two. They won't refund my money because the description changes for each size, but considering the gingko is marketed specifically to people who aren't feeling as sharp as they used to, I think I got skunked.
Just wanted to say I really appreciate your going in-depth on the Safety of herbs etc. in your videos. The Safety of anything I put in my body is Very Important me & should be to everyone ;-)
hey, you mentioned combining Bacopa with other nootropics and that case the dosage could be lower, what things would you combine it with? Say 150mg of bacopa, 500mg of Lion's mane and / or 200mg of Rhodiola , would that be fine? Any other combinations? Thanks:)
When I can’t turn my brain off at night with random thoughts it helps me sleep. When I have long days and don’t take it at night, I can take it in the morning and it offsets extreme brain fog due to lack of sleep.
Would you happen to know if if bacopa is safe to take when one is on Anti-depressant medication. I took Ashwaganda Once and I got Extremely sick. My doctor told me you have to be very careful with herbs when you are taking Anti-depressants. So would you happen to know ?
After watching your video, i tried bacopa monnieri , I initially experienced very high positive effects from taking the bacopa monnieri tablet, including improvements in mood, memory, and concentration. However, after about a week, i noticed that it stopped working, and i began feeling sleepy , lazy, foggy and experiencing procrastination. Despite undergoing a complete blood test, including checking for any vitamin deficiencies, all results came normal.. I'm wondering why the Bacopa monnieri tablet isn't having the same positive effects on me anymore, even though i have using a high-quality brand...i have exams ... please give me solution... thanks a lot...
I'd say that the initial effects weren't there because of a Bacopa because what you experienced is not what usually happens when you supplement Bacopa :)
Hi, my question is; how would you compare Bacopa with Gotu Kola (Brahmi) , specifically which supplement is better to increase cognitive function and reduce anxiety, stress, depression? I am also taking Ashwagandha excellent stress relieving effect and mood enhancer. Can I take Ashwagandha and Bacopa together? Any advice on that would be greatly appreciated! Thank You
@@PandaA-cv3mm Thank You for the answer! I am going to try with Ashwagandha. As for now I have been taking only Bacopa for almost 2 months and I haven't noticed much of improvement in memory or focusing. I do have very frequent and vivid dreams though which I usually don't. I don't know if it's the effect of Bacopa, but it is something new I have noticed for the past few months.
Kind of psychoactive. I love ordering the powder and putting it in a jar of water at a very strong dose and just sipping the water until i’ve hit my limit. Only in the evening. Very stony jungle type psychoactive effect. I synergized it with gingko powder.
Best time to take is in the morning, or to help you over an afternoon slump. Since it makes you alert, I would avoid it before bed. If you need help sleeping, then magnesium, poppy, valerian etc... would be better choices then
It can help, but there are better sleep nootropics on the market (check Performance Lab Sleep) :) Bacopa Monnieri is Bacopa, there are no other "types" :) Anytime you take is good :)
Actually I would say as a standard, it takes around three months for most supplements to start properly working. But it depends on the strength and dosage. A herbal liquid extract takes about a week to start working for me, but that same herb in a tea form, would take about 6 weeks to notice benefits
@@MrsSlocombesPuddyCat my question would be, is it due to a chemical change or a brain rewiring? 4 weeks makes sense for a rewiring. But idk that seems long. I'll try bacopa though. I did feel a change with lions mane
quickkid90 it will help you sleep good... i have bad anxiety and its hard for me to sleep... after taking bacopa my anxiety is completely gone and i get a good nights sleep.... it also gives great results when intaking THC! Will make you focus on any tasks to the best of your abilities with ease!
Mine kicked in on day two. Greatly reduced my anxiety and cortisol like a benzo. Amazing supplement. If I have bad anxiety I take it with Ashwaganda and it crushes it.
hello man! , i bought Bacopa Monnieri. its in Syrup formet. ......my exam is after 34 days... can you tell the doges , how much i should take see the benefit before my exam.
methylphenidate incrse dopamine and make perosn for few hour suppermen... but as side effcts and withdrawal is very bad... but Brahmi mke person calm relax and good sleep also
webmd says under side effects: Lung conditions: Bacopa might increase fluid secretions in the lung. There is concern that this could worsen lung conditions such as asthma or emphysema.
I have been researching, testing, and experimenting with nootropics since 2015. I am certified expert in nutrition and brain biohacking from Emory University.
The company I use to buy it from went out of business. I had one that was 50% but now I see that they are 20 - 25% only. Where would you suggest to buy 50% powder from? I ran out a couple days and need to find a replacement. Thanks,
I think anything that targets your brain will take an average of 6 to 8 weeks. I had severe depression and anxiety and I was prescribed SSRI. The doctor told me all SSRI takes approximately 2 months to see results.
@@Gabrie177 Thanks for reply. I assume that is correct on average. My opinion is that if human gut is healthier, the absorption of certain substances can be quicker and results experienced faster.
It can be beneficial, but there are other nootropics that I would recommend taking first. Feel free to send me an email to greg@yourinception.com and I will send you some suggestions :)
I checked nootropics depot and its expensive. Can you suggest one that is less expensive and still helps BOOST memory and concentration? I dont want one that will make me sleepy.
This is a great herb. I bought mine from #Gaiaherbs and it works great . I have less mental fatigue, more relaxed and concentrate better ! No bad side effects.
It's Ayurvedic. It originated in India and it's ORIGINAL name is Brhamy. You also mixed it up with Brahmi plant which a totally different herb. There is an ayurvedic way to consume it other wise you have side effects. I am honestly sick of whitewashed and plagerized Ayurvedic concepts.
When you are recommending “ x mg active ingredient “ “300mg daily “ You are applying a drug premise to a wholesome food Herbs used in their wholesome form have central benefits. And side benefits . No side effects I respectfully suggest you consider a tea (infusion ) of the organic leaf 1oz to 1 pint distilled water 1 tspn to 1 cup Or you 1/2 teaspoon of dried powder + 1 teaspoon Ashwaganda powder (they are synergistic together. with honey full fat yoghurt and a dash warm water 2 times daily before meals Take am & lunch 6 days on. 1 day rest Repeat I work in medicine
I think he might not be capable of awsering your question, look at this comment: ( I came to this conclusuion just based on this. so don't trust me) kaashee 5 months ago THE CATCH IS ACTUALLY NOT MENTIONED. Bacopa caused a lower sperm count when investigated in multiple studies. This is temporary and returns after stopping the herb. Your Inception 4 months ago I didn't know about that :)
'You need to take Bacopa for 4-6 weeks for it to work, you should really remember that cause it's really important" How I can remember to do that before it take it lol! Goldfish's are struggling to remember the details of their memory supplement....
You know you have ADHD when you are obsessing about that blue document in the black frame being ever so slightly slanted. Luckily, with Bacopa, I am not getting nervous about it at the same time. :) Love Bacopa, thanks for this "second" opinion.
How do you like Bacopa monnieri? :)

Sound like me. Now I can even remember names

I read that it improves focus, I would like it for ADHD, do you know if it works for it or there is one better?
For ADHD, take L-tyrosine, green tea extract, omega-3 and rhodiola rosea. This is a standard protocol :)
@@yourinception even more if you look for Himalaya brand it says that improve focus and reviews reports this as a benefit
Can you take it with magnesium l theronate?
Yes
it helps me to relaxation and calming... I Make paste of whole plant and dry in the sun..and Make powder 😇
Awesome
Within how many weeks it starts giving desired result?
4-8 weeks :)
Do you take bacopa ?
is 500mg of bacopa with 50% bacosides good?
Yes, really good!
BM is a popular aquarium/aquascaping plant. Maybe they should be eating it instead...
:)
hello man! , i bought Bacopa Monnieri. its in Syrup formet. ......my exam is after 34 days... can you tell the doges , how much i should take see the benefit before my exam.
You can take it up 300 mg per day.
Good review dude...
Shall I take bacopa monnieri with multivitamin tablets....???????
You can :)
Which brand of nootropics would u prefer for individual nootropics? And also does homeopathic bacopa has the same effect?
Use the brands that have the highest number of positive feedback by the users and aren't priced on the low side.
@@yourinception ur recommendation?
If you love it why did you say you would not buy it?
Asking myself the same question.
I wouldn't but it as an individual compounds, because it is better to have it combined with other nootropics. You get so much more out of it :)
R u suffering from anxiety?
So what would you combine it with. Your contradictory statement was confusing.
Sorry my phone is not audible, what are the other nootropics best paired with Baccopa Monierrie?😘
Rhodiola, ashwagandha, ginseng, but also choline, omega-3.. :)
Anyone know if it's safe to take Black Maca in the morning and Bacopa at night?
Yes
I have sever anxiety can't sleep. Is it help for me?
There are better supplements for you. Send me an email to grega@yourinception.com and I'll help you out :)
@@yourinception i can't get u in gmail
What's the catch???
That you need to combine it with other nootropics :)
I make tea out of the herb is that also recommendedable?
Yeah, that's great :)
Do you make tea from raw plant?
Whats is the correct dosage for the raw powder, it is not very soluble in water but in hot mik works good.
Do you take bacopa?
Would it be ok for a 15 year old to take this?
I would not recommend it :)
15 year old should not have too many memories to recall
JUST JOKING
What about gotu kola ?
It's quite benefical :)
Hi

@@vodafone3732 Thanks
Can you combine this with rhodiola rosea? If so, what’s best way? Timing/
Dosage thanks
Sure you can. Rhodiola in the morning (50-200 mg), bacopa in the afternoon (300 mg). :)
Do you take bacopa?
webmd says under side effects:
Lung conditions: Bacopa might increase fluid secretions in the lung. There is concern that this could worsen lung conditions such as asthma or emphysema.
It could be, that's why I recommend consulting your doctor before.
@@yourinception just thought you should know. whether or not you include these things are up to you
If i m healty i can take it?
Thats a big risk! I dont know if i should try it but reading this is telling me rather no. But i realy want to
@@diago951 there are so many better options out there depending on what you want.
IMPROVE YOUR MEMORY AND SERIOUSLY LOWER YOUR SPERM COUNT AND IT'S WORST IF YOU ALREADY HAVE LOW PERM COUNT.
OMG. Are you serious?
Low PERM count???
You mean your hair will look less permed?
Do you mean that the amount of sperm decreases from taking Bacopa?
I tried supplements. I remember and focus a lot.
:D
Do you take bacopa?
I took 2 capsules of 250mg, and it's too much for me. Tomorrow I'll try only one capsule and see.
Keep me posted :)
Any withdrawal with bacopa??
Nope :)
What would you Recomend for adhd please?
I've got a whole video made on ADHD, check it out: th-cam.com/video/kE-BZA8kiBw/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=YourInception-SupplementExperts
What is your professional background? @Your Inception - Supplement Experts
I have been researching, testing, and experimenting with nootropics since 2015. I am certified expert in nutrition and brain biohacking from Emory University.
The company I use to buy it from went out of business. I had one that was 50% but now I see that they are 20 - 25% only. Where would you suggest to buy 50% powder from? I ran out a couple days and need to find a replacement. Thanks,
Check nootropics depot :)
Do you take bacopa?
Are u Croatian?
Slovenian :)
Speaker states that first results show after 4-6 weeks. I wonder what is the biological reason for this. Can anybody provide some info?
I think anything that targets your brain will take an average of 6 to 8 weeks. I had severe depression and anxiety and I was prescribed SSRI. The doctor told me all SSRI takes approximately 2 months to see results.
@@Gabrie177 Thanks for reply. I assume that is correct on average. My opinion is that if human gut is healthier, the absorption of certain substances can be quicker and results experienced faster.
Mine kicked in on day 2 of use. I combine it with ashwaganda if I’m extremely anxious. Excellent.
@@PandaA-cv3mm Thats indeed good combination. I do it as well.
Gopinat Boratyński Wonderful to hear ☺️ Thanks! Good to know I’m not alone 👍.
Is the beneficial with ADHD?
It can be beneficial, but there are other nootropics that I would recommend taking first. Feel free to send me an email to greg@yourinception.com and I will send you some suggestions :)
I take Lions Mane every day during the day and Bacopa every day at night.
Great!
@@yourinception Thank you
I checked nootropics depot and its expensive. Can you suggest one that is less expensive and still helps BOOST memory and concentration?
I dont want one that will make me sleepy.
Use Live plant instead of nootropic
@@yourethebest7345 just eat it?? How do you know the dosage?
@@melanierobson3336 eat 3-5 leaves of bacopa and if you have Centella Asiatica then eat 2-4 leaves raw
Do you take bacopa?
This is a great herb. I bought mine from #Gaiaherbs and it works great . I have less mental fatigue, more relaxed and concentrate better ! No bad side effects.
Great, glad it helps you! Thank you for sharing your experience :)
Do you also cycle this supplement? Like one month on/off
It's Ayurvedic. It originated in India and it's ORIGINAL name is Brhamy. You also mixed it up with Brahmi plant which a totally different herb. There is an ayurvedic way to consume it other wise you have side effects. I am honestly sick of whitewashed and plagerized Ayurvedic concepts.
Really can you explain it, how do I
learn the true history.
Can you suggest a source
When you are recommending “ x mg active ingredient “ “300mg daily “
You are applying a drug premise to a wholesome food
Herbs used in their wholesome form have central benefits. And side benefits
. No side effects
I respectfully suggest you consider a tea (infusion ) of the organic leaf 1oz to 1 pint distilled water
1 tspn to 1 cup
Or you 1/2 teaspoon of dried powder + 1 teaspoon Ashwaganda powder (they are synergistic together. with honey full fat yoghurt and a dash warm water 2 times daily before meals
Take am & lunch
6 days on. 1 day rest
Repeat
I work in medicine
Thanks for sharing, we'll have a look :)
Do you take bacopa?
How about using bacoba plus gingko biloba plus ginseng?
I think he might not be capable of awsering your question, look at this comment: ( I came to this conclusuion just based on this. so don't trust me)

THE CATCH IS ACTUALLY NOT MENTIONED. Bacopa caused a lower sperm count when investigated in multiple studies. This is temporary and returns after stopping the herb.

I didn't know about that :)
Only side effect is feeling thirsty.
Ha, I didn't know about that one :)
'You need to take Bacopa for 4-6 weeks for it to work, you should really remember that cause it's really important" How I can remember to do that before it take it lol! Goldfish's are struggling to remember the details of their memory supplement....
Ah, you can do it! :D
Can I make a tea of this?
You can.
I found dried Bacopa in my local herb store. I made it into a tea and works well with Gotu Kola, but keep in mind that it’s bitter
@@gonzalezlesly03 Yes it is bitter. But I have grown use to the taste and like it. If people don't like the taste, then raw honey could be added.
You know you have ADHD when you are obsessing about that blue document in the black frame being ever so slightly slanted. Luckily, with Bacopa, I am not getting nervous about it at the same time. :) Love Bacopa, thanks for this "second" opinion.
I'm happy to hear that Bacopa works for you :)
Bacopa reminds me of a police officer because it has the word cop
:)
So like Strattera, you have to take it for a while before any effect makes itself apparent.
Okay.
I'm your Huckleberry.

Hehe :)

It's £8.51 for 120 Vegan capsules on eBay.

Please stop calling it Bacopa monnieri and call it Brahmi! ❤
Why? Bacopa Monneiri is it's scientific name.
@@user-uf4lf2bp8t in the west its called bacopa
Why stop calling bacopa?
@@mariofox1153 nevermind, he's just a over proud indian
There's no catch, it's a typical review.
There is a catch with Bacopa and I mention it in the video :)
