1 oz. (28 grams) Jatamansi Root Powder (Nardostachys jatamansi) Jatamansi is a herb from Ayurveda with many similar traditional claims to Bacopa monnieri such as antistress, anticonvulsive, antiepileptic, and cognitive enhancing. Unlike bacopa, however, jatamansi does not have as much evidence to support it and is currently in a preliminary stage of research. When looking at the neural research, at least one study has supported jatamansi in promoting cognition of otherwise healthy young rodents and restoring cognition in older rats; this study outperformed the reference drug Piracetam but other studies assessing cognitive enhancement are not too common. There appears to be more evidence on the neuroprotective properties of jatamansi (which, although the studies are too heterogeneous to come to any solid conclusions, seem very promising) and one study suggested potent anti-depressive effects associated with jatamansi. Perhaps intriguinly, jatamansi is a rare herb that has been demonstrated to have a calming effect despite increasing brain monoamines (which is normally correlated with psychostimulation). Beyond the brain, jatamansi appears to have general antioxidative effects (seems a lot more potent in vivo rather than ex vivo; with studies outside the body being about a tenth as effective as Vitamin C and not at all impressive) and has a surprisingly amount of evidence in rodents to support jatamansi as protective against pancreatitis. Similar to the neural evidence, this has not been explored in humans but occurs at very feasible doses.Also Known AsSpikenard, Jatamansi, Muskroot, Nardostachys grandiflora (synonym)Do Not Confuse WithNardostachys chinensis (different plant of same genera)Things to Note Jatamansi is said to be a calming and relaxing herbHow to TakeRecommended dosage, active amounts, other details Studies in rodents tend to use 250-500mg/kg of the basic root extract, which is an estimated human dose of: 2,700-5,400mg for a 150lb person 3,600-7,200mg for a 200lb person 4,500-9,000mg for a 250lb person These are estimated human dosages based on rat studies, as it is currently not known if these are optimal human dosages.
