Start by mixing the Lalas Brahmi Powder into a beverage, as its it’s typically easier to consume that way. You can indeed blend it into your morning smoothie to mask the taste, but be sure not to heat it too much as high temperatures can alter some of its beneficial properties. Another option is to mix half a teaspoon of Brahmi powder in warm milk, along with a bit of honey or jaggery if you prefer it sweeter, consuming it ideally twice daily. This is a traditional way that complements Brahmi’s cooling and calming effects, which nurtures the nervous system.
Regarding dosage, stick with half a teaspoon to start with-like any herb, Brahmi can have varying effects based on individual prakriti (body constitution) and dosha balance. In general, it’s considered quite safe for long-term use, but as you noted, pay attention to your body’s signals. Check for any digestive upset or change in cognitive function, as those could indicate it’s not suiting you. Also, since you mentioned concerns about brain fog, assess whether it’s helping you feel more mentallly sharp after a few weeks use.
Remember that Brahmi’s action is subtle and works best harmoniously with lifestyle changes that enhance brain health. Maintaining regular sleep patterns, a balanced diet, and stress-managing activities in sync with your dosha can amplify results.
Although side effects are uncommon, consult with an Ayurvedic practitioner or healthcare provider for personalized advice, particularly if you have underlying medical conditions or are taking other medications. Brain fog might have various root causes, so if changes are not evident, further exploration with a professional might be needed. Always be cautious about self-treating persistent symptoms and continue to prioritize overall health safety.
