Latin Name: Centella Asiatica

Common Names: Gotu Kola

Gotu kola is regarded as perhaps the most spiritual of all herbs in India. Growing in some areas of the Himalayas, gotu kola is used by yogis to improve meditation. It is said to develop the crown chakra, the energy center at the top of the head and to balance the right and left hemispheres of the brain, which the leaf is said to resemble.

many cultures across Asia and Africa use gotu kola leaves in their culinary preparations, such as in soups, salads, or in a wide variety of beverages, but there is another valuable use. The stems and leaves of gotu kola can be used on their own as a simple remedy, or an extract of the leaves can be taken, which is a highly concentrated compound containing all the active ingredients in gotu kola. This can be made into gels, creams, capsule supplements, ointments, and other forms to treat everything from anxiety to cardiovascular conditions. The high concentration of unique triterpenoid compounds (also known as saponins) found in it is the reason for this plant’s power.
