Bacopa Monnieri Extract 20%

Manufacturing

The manufacturing process of Bacopa monnieri extract (20%) involves several key steps. First, mature Bacopa monnieri leaves are harvested, typically from regions with warm climates like India. The harvested leaves are then thoroughly cleaned to remove any impurities.

After cleaning, the leaves undergo extraction, commonly using the solvent extraction method. This process isolates the bioactive compounds, including bacosides, which are responsible for the potential cognitive-enhancing properties of Bacopa monnieri.

The extracted solution is then concentrated to achieve the desired potency of 20%, indicating the standardized percentage of active compounds in the final product. This concentration step enhances the extract's efficacy. Quality control measures such as HPLC are implemented throughout the manufacturing process to ensure purity and consistency.

Applications

For centuries, bacopa monnieri has been used, either by itself or in combination with other herbs, in Ayurvedic medicine. Balanced effects result from the healing properties of Bacopa monniera combined with the calming effects of organic sesame oil for moisturizing and helping a range of skin conditions.
