The human brain regulates higher-level operations such as cognition and memory, functions that provide us with the capacity to think, reason, and act. A person desires not only of better quality of life but also of an efficient, effective, and meaningful life. To survive in such a competitive era every parent wants his child to be an excellent performer in every field by using hisher superior mind with superior cognitive functions. Ayurveda have a lot of brain booster. Suvaranaprashana is outone of them. Suvarnaprashana claimed to have Medhya effect Administration of treated gold in children is an exclusive preparation stated in Ayurveda as "Suvarnaprashana" by Acharya Kashyapa thousand years ago. He described unmistakably the administration of Suvarna (gold) in children for the welfares of improving intelligence (brainpower), digestion and metabolism, somatic strength, insusceptibility, skin texture, potency (fertility), and life span. Ayurveda mentions only sanitized and treated form of gold for oral administration. According to Ayurveda, poor memory caused due to inactivity of Kapha or aggravation of Vata dosha. Small doses of Suvarna Bhasma when taken for the prescribed duration are known to increase the memory power because of its Vata balancing and Rasayana (rejuvenating) properties.
