ABOUT CELASTRUS PANICULATUS

The Indian celastrus paniculatus, or "the intellect tree," is primarily used by local healers as a brain tonic.

 

These uses are now recognized as nootropics. Among these benefits are "...mental acuity, support of memory and intellect, retention and recalling ability, and alleviation of mental fatigue, stress..."*[1]

 

This plant was thought to improve people's ability to learn new information more rapidly, and to recall that information more accurately and efficiently, later on,*[1].

 

Cerlastrus paniculatus seeds (and its oil) are used to support cognitive functioning. Several active compounds have been detected in the seeds, including celastrine, celapanine, celapanigine, celapagin, malkangunin and paniculatine.

 

In experimental studies, Celastrus paniculatus extracts have shown positive effects on cognitive function and neuroprotection.*
