Brief Summary
|
Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI )is the most commonly observed disease amongst elderly people and it is responsible for developing the diseases like Dementia and Alzheimer’s disease(AD) (1) MCI is the most important stage between normal ageing and dementia. Prevalence of MCI observed globally is 15.56%(2). The high conversion rate from MCI to AD places a large burden on individual and family. Thus, it is a need of time to pay attention to the treatment of MCI. Comorbidities especially Hypertension and Diabetes aggravates MCI in elderly people therefore it needs to get controlled. According to Sharangadhara Acharya, Medha (grasping and retention power) starts declining after the fourth decade of life and this may be considered as an alarming signal for further decline of Smriti (memory) and Buddhi (intellect), in the successive years. Rasayana Chikitsa has a major role to play in this arena. Nootropic drugs like Guduchi, Ashwagandha, Brahmi, Shankhapushpi various ghritas have proven efficacy in cognitive domains of psychological wellbeing. Brahmi being the most effective and safe drug is chosen for the present study in the form of Brahmi Ghrita |
