What is the functional ingredient "bacopasaponin"?
It is a component that is abundant in the plantain family, Plantain, which is a moist perennial plant distributed in Europe, North Africa, Asia, and the Americas.
It is said that the decline in transmission function related to cognition is due to the decrease in neurotransmitters in the cerebrum with aging.Since bacopasaponin has the effect of inhibiting neurotransmitter-degrading enzymes, it has been reported to maintain memory, which is part of cognitive function, by suppressing the decrease in neurotransmitters. *
