My wife is from west bengal and she says when she was growing up they would eat a few raw leaves everyday. It was part of their ritual in the village that they were taught. The plant grows wild. They also cook with those leaves. So many other herbs that modern science is discovering.

Here in coastal Karnataka ( south India ) , Brahmi grows extensively like weeds ,children are given few leaves of every morning with tulsi ( holy basil), but it is mainly used with breakfast as chutney ( coconut + Brahmi + ginger ) as a tasty accompaniment for our dosa or idli .🙂.

@johnnyaingel5753 5 лет назад

Excellent video thank you i know about ayurvedic herbs from india for many years and chinese herbs too and bacopa and gotu kola are one of my favorites for the mind and body and even help with your spiritual energy too

@cerevor 5 лет назад

They are EXTREMELY different, I don't know why they are always put together or Bacopa recommended as the "main" one. Bacopa has quite radical effects, nearly all of them uncomfortable: serotinergic, muscarinic, all making very nervous, slightly jittery, also causes impotence and disaffectation, sometimes brainfog. It does create a kind of "fluency" of language and of some thoughts, I give it that. I guess the latter is where they compare. Because Gotu Kola gives that also, but without the awful side-effects. I guess the side effects are what impress posers who are only looking for some kind of "strong" effect, even if it's all bad or all useless. Gotu Kola is relatively harmless and slightly "mysterious" as in hard to pin down in its effects. Bacopa is a bomb of serotinergic, muscarinic effects, probably not by those transmitters themselves, but targeted blockade or agonism. (Serotonin is a 90s hype that should long have died, however you will see for yourself how it will destroy your balance, calm and sexual function with Bacopa, presumably specifically by 5-HT2C receptors, which block dopamine release.)

Dr. Douillard, I have Brahmi in powder form and am not sure how to take it, how much to take (tsp. size) and when would be the best time to take it.

@helenismail6241 5 лет назад

Take with one tea spoon, mix with hot water or milk. Or juice. Everything healthy

@turbonbc 5 лет назад

How much were you taking, what brand and it could be a result of chemical interactions? Do you take meditation or consume processed/junk food often?

@darshangowda2067 2 года назад

Don't take bacopa , take centella asiatica

@anusrectus 5 лет назад

Hi, what if I try buying the raw powder bacopa , where the recommended dose is 3 grams a day twice, would it have the same effect as a 500mg capsule extract? Which one is more effective? Thanks

@Krishna-vw9ko 2 года назад

Extracts are more potent and are recommended to patients suffering from some illness but otherwise a healthy person can consume powder everyday and that will do the job..

Alon Y was drinking gotu kola tea was going OK for about a week was driving on the freeway when I felt my body swerving to the side almost as if my soul was leaving my soul was very hard to drive felt very dizzy.

@turbonbc 5 лет назад

@@alon31y Gotu Kola is a herb used for thousands of years for meditation and spiritual practice, it is not wise to drive when using spiritual herbs as they do very deep healing. Another thing is many of us eat processed and junk food full of un natural chemicals and take medication which could interact negatively with natural herbs like gotu kola. On their own, natural herbs rarely interact negatively but because our diets and lifestyles are full of artificial junk, these things can happen even with natural herbs with is extremely rare on their own with a natural diet/lifestyle.

@darshangowda2067 2 года назад

I think you took bacopa not centella asiatica. Bacopa is dangerous, take centella asiatica. Centella asiatica is right herb.. Trust me for god sake... 🌿. Big people are manipulating things of ayurved.
