About this species
Bacopa monnieri, also known as water hyssop, brahmi, thyme-leafed gratiola, herb of grace, and Indian pennywort, is a perennial, creeping herb native to wetland areas globally.
It is used in Ayurveda. In 2019, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) warned manufacturers of dietary supplement products containing Bacopa monnieri against making illegal and unproven claims that the herb can treat various diseases. There is inconclusive evidence of it improving cognitive performance and memory, and its safety and effectiveness remain uncertain.

Bacopa monnieri, llamada en español bacopa o hisopo de agua es una planta herbácea perenne rastrera cuyo hábitat incluye los humedales y las orillas fangosas. Brahmi es también el nombre dado a centella asiática por algunos botánicos, mientras que otros consideran que es un error que surgió durante el siglo XVI, cuando brahmi fue confundido con mandukaparni el nombre para la centella asiática.

假马齿苋（学名：Bacopa monnieri），又名婆罗米、过长沙、百克爬草，原生于亚洲的印度、中国、越南等亚热带地区，具匍匐茎及白色小花。起初，它在池塘边驻足，并不起眼，但它最后会像绿色的地毯般铺满整个池塘。它天生爱水，而且非常硬朗，能适应深水或浅水环境，甚至可以在淡盐水环境生长，但最喜爱的还是缓缓的河流。
假马齿苋可以作为水族箱中的水草。在印度传统中作为治疗癫痫和哮喘的草药，但有毒。在越南传统食品中作为煮粥的添加物。
