Used in biochemical and pharmaceutical research due to its neuroprotective properties and potential to stimulate the formation of new neurons (neurogenesis). It helps reduce oxidative stress in neuronal cells, supports the recovery of brain and central nervous system function, and has been investigated for applications in treating neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases. Preclinical studies have also explored its antioxidant effects and role in enhancing cognitive function and memory retention.
