Abstract:
There are varieties of traditional medicinal plants widely used for boosting of memory. These plants include Bacopa monnieri, Rhodiola rosea, Ginkgo biloba, Withania somnifera, etc. Memory boosting effect of such plants is solely attributed to their active phytoconstituents. These constituents are also referred to as smart drugs. These are capable of crossing blood brain barriers. They also enhance the cognitive performance in the brain by acting on memory to make it much alert and focused. They are having memory boosting properties to boost the coordination between the neurons and brain.
