Scutellaria baicalensis is also known as Baikal Skullcap, Chinese Skullcap, or Golden Root, and is used in traditional Chinese practices. It was used for its unique benefits to cardiovascular and cognitive function with additional benefits to longevity. The Baikal Skullcap root is the part of the plant most commonly used in traditional and modern supplements. This is because the main bioactives reside in the roots, with very low levels in both the stem and leaves. The main bioactive compounds of Chinese Skullcap are Apigenin, Baicalein and Baicalin.  Baicalin is a flavone glycoside and may help promote healthy cognitive function through supporting memory and learning, and promoting neuroprotection.
