The Best Herbs for Enhancing Brain Health and Cognitive Function
The brain is an amazing organ that weighs a mere three pounds, but that controls all functions of the body, interprets information from the outside world and is responsible for everything from intelligence to creativity, emotion, memory and so much more. Another thing about the brain is that people rarely give much thought to it when things are running smoothly. It's only when we start struggling with a mental health issue or we start experiencing memory problems, or just a general slowing down of our cognitive abilities, that we start paying a little more attention to our brain’s health. Fortunately, there exist several medicinal plants and herbs that can help improve brain health throughout life, sharpen cognitive function in children, adolescents, adults and the elderly, as well as support memory loss and other cognitive dysfunctions as we age. Let’s have a look at some of the most studied and recognized herbs for brain health.
Ashwagandha
This is one of the better-known adaptogens worldwide and certainly in North America. It has been used for well over 2,500 years as a potent immunomodulator and anti-inflammatory. Research has shown it can restore nervous system health, boost memory, improve concentration, stabilize mood, enhance mental focus and energy and reduces brain cell degeneration associated with the aging process. Indeed, when it comes to the brain, ashwagandha is known to benefit cognitive function by promoting neuronal growth and protecting neurons from damage and oxidative stress; therefore, it helps preserve optimal cognition throughout life.
Just as interestingly, ashwagandha naturally down-regulates cortisol production by the adrenal glands, which enables us to better handle the various stressors we are exposed to (mental, psychological, environmental, and physical), and thus, quell symptoms of anxiety and other mood disorders, or hormone imbalance.
Bacopa Herb For Brain Health
Bacopa has been a staple in traditional Ayurvedic medicine for hundreds of years and is prized as an effective natural solution for a broad range of mental and mood-related health conditions, such as ADHD, memory loss, age-related cognitive decline (including dementia and Alzheimer’s), anxiety and symptoms of low mood. One of the unique attributes of Bacopa is that it is neither stimulating nor sedating, but rather, works by balancing neurotransmitters, most notably dopamine and serotonin, so may help relieve symptoms of stress and anxiety and promote happy, balanced moods. Studies have further demonstrated that bacopa supplementation helps improve memory, focus, attention, learning and memory across age groups.
Ginkgo Biloba
Also sometimes called Maidenhair, Ginkgo Biloba supplements come from the leaves of the Ginkgo tree and are well-known for their effects on brain health and cognition. Ginkgo Biloba is extremely rich in antioxidants, most notably, flavonoids and terpenoids, which have a neutralizing effect on free radicals, and help prevent damage to the body, accelerated aging and disease development. Ginkgo Biloba is also a potent natural anti-inflammatory that can reduce markers of inflammation and is a powerful circulation enhancer, which can increase blood flow to various parts of the body, not the least of which is the brain.
Ginkgo has been studied closely for its ability to reduce symptoms of stress, anxiety, as well as cognitive decline associated with aging, including dementia and Alzheimer's. Results from these studies show that Ginkgo Biloba supplementation not only mitigates mood disorder symptoms but also reduces the rate of cognitive decline in those affected by various forms of dementia.
Gotu Kola
This is a perennial plant that is a member of the parsley and carrot family and contrary to what its name implies, Gotu Kola is not a stimulant, but rather, a relaxant herb. Gotu Kola has long been a staple of Ayurveda and Traditional Chinese Medicine. Its Chinese name means “fountain of youth”, which explains its reputation as the "herb of longevity". One of the most well-known benefits of Gotu Kola is its ability to improve cognition and sharpen memory. In fact, a study published in the Journal of Alzheimer’s Disease demonstrated that Gotu Kola supplementation can improve memory at the molecular level by enhancing the activity of a pathway associated with long-term memory formation. Gotu Kola supplementation has also been effectively used to treat brain-related disorders including mental fatigue, anxiety, depressive conditions, memory loss, and insomnia.
Lion’s Mane
While not an herb per se, the Lion’s Mane mushroom (also called Hericium Erinaceus), is a potent adaptogen with powerful nootropic properties and is especially beneficial for the brain by improving cognition in healthy individuals as well as in patients with various degrees of cognitive impairment. More concretely, research tells us that Lion’s Mane can help reduce inflammation and biological markers of Alzheimer's (i.e., amyloid plaques), improve cognition and increase the Nerve Growth Factor, a protein that can increase the length of nerve cell processes. Further studies have shown that Lion’s Mane supplementation in patients with Alzheimer’s disease improves activities of daily living like personal hygiene, dressing, preparing food, etc., so not only enhances memory and cognition but also improves the overall quality of life.
Panax Ginseng Herb For Brain Health
The botanical name for ginseng is “Panax ginseng”, meaning “heal-all” or “panacea”, and is arguably one of the most popular and widely studied herbs worldwide, a well-earned distinction. And studies have demonstrated Panax Ginseng can not only promote longevity but also help prevent memory loss, mitigate age-related mental decline, improve cognitive functions in healthy individuals and dementia patients and improve memory in stroke patients, as well as alleviate mental and physical fatigue.
One of the key ways in which Panax Ginseng enhances brain health and cognitive function is by improving circulation throughout the body, but especially in the brain, which increases the delivery of oxygen, glucose, vitamins, amino acids, minerals, and other essential brain nutrients. Cerebral blood flow also helps clear harmful substances such as carbon dioxide, toxins, and metabolic waste products.
Concluding Insights on the Benefits of Herbs for Brain Wellness
There are a wide variety of herbs and medicinal plants that improve brain health and cognitive function across age groups. While you can certainly opt for a single herb supplement, selecting a combination blend multiples the benefits.
