The US Botanical Adulterants Prevention Program (BAPP) has published a new bulletin aimed at preventing the adulteration and mislabeling of bacopa (Bacopa monnieri). In India, the herb is widely used as a cognition and memory supplement. It shares the common Sanskrit name brahmi with another plant of similar properties, gotu kola (Centella asiatica), which is often the root of confusion. Ayurvedic literature acknowledges the two plant species as legitimate substitutes for each other when used medicinally.
