Gotu Kola Loose Herb

Gotu Kola Centella asiatica is one of the most revered herbs in Ayurveda and Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). For centuries, it has been used as a brain tonic, wound-healer, and rejuvenating herb.

Ancient Ayurvedic texts describe Gotu Kola as "Brahmi," the herb of enlightenment, while TCM highlights its role in promoting longevity and mental clarity.

Rich in Triterpenes

Gotu Kola is naturally rich in triterpenes, the powerful plant compounds that give this herb its reputation. Its key triterpenoids include asiaticoside, madecassoside, asiatic acid, and madecassic acid.

These compounds are the focus of ongoing research and are associated with:

• Cognitive support: Mental clarity, focus, and memory
• Skin and wound support: Healthy skin renewal and recovery
• Circulation support: Healthy blood flow and vein function reduce ankle swelling
• Calm and balance: A relaxed, centered mood and stress resilience
• Antioxidant protection: Defense against everyday oxidative stress
• Rejuvenation: Overall vitality and longevity, as valued in traditional use
