Gotu Kola – is also called Asiatic pennywort or Centella asiatica. It is a plant originating from the southeast Asia, which has been used for thousands of years in the traditional Chinese medicine as a remedy for numerous ailments associated mainly with the cardiovascular and nervous systems. It was considered to be a source of longevity, because it delays the aging process of cells.

It contains also necessary vitamins: C, A, E and K.

Positive influence on the cardiovascular system
Gotu kola is known for its positive influence on the cardiovascular system. Triterpenes contained in it can regulate the functioning of blood vessels, improve blood flow and stimulate peripheral circulation. By the stimulation of collagen synthesis, they strengthen the connective tissue and improve the elasticity of blood vessels. Gotu kola can be effectively used in patients with chronic vascular failures and circulation disorders. Applying the extract in people with such ailments significantly improved the condition of blood vessels, which resulted in a reduction of varicose veins.

Regulation of the nervous system
The studies demonstrate that Gotu kola shows strong adaptogenic effects, which improves the functioning of the nervous system and the whole body system, by increasing resistance to stress.

It improves mood, increases the feeling of calmness and satisfaction as well as reduces anxiety and nervousness.

Thanks to the ability to reduce stress hormones level, it improves quality and efficiency of sleep, so that it is used in the treatment of insomnia. The regular supplementation with Centella asiatica enhances the fight against negative influence of stress on the whole body system as well as regulates the functioning of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis (HPA).

Influence on the brain
Gotu kola is known for its positive influence on cognitive functions of brain. It increases the activity of neurotransmitters, such as serotonin, dopamine and GABA. Regular application of the extract improves the ability to memorise, concentration and learning processes. It improves also the ability to acquire information and directly affects the quality of short-time memory. The study in 30 children has demonstrated that over the period of 12 weeks the children became more attentive, eager to learn new things, more calm and concentrated, which led to better results at school.

Gotu kola shows strong regenerating influence on brain cells. It helps to produce an enzyme, acetylcholine, whose deficiencies are observed in elderly people suffering from Alzheimer’s disease. Applying Gotu kola in such case can reverse the effects of memory loss and support brain functions. It also accelerates the self-regeneration of blood, so that it is used in the treatment of strokes and various brain injuries.

Improvement in the appearance of skin, hair and nails
Gotu kola is useful for treating hard to heal wounds and burns, as it increases the synthesis of collagen, hyaluronic acid and elastin. It can be used for the treatment of post-surgical wounds, acne and difficult to remove scars. It reduces swelling, oedema and dark circles under the eyes as well as it is useful for vascular skin care. The newest studies show that Gotu kola can reduce stretch marks, as it stimulates the synthesis of collagen. It is used a support in the therapy of skin problems of autoimmune origins, such as psoriasis or albinism.

Reduction in inflammations
The studies demonstrated that Gotu kola is very helpful in case of people with diabetes and diabetic foot. Thanks to its antibacterial and antifungal properties, it effectively reduces inflammations and accelerates wound healing. As it reduces inflammations, it is useful in patients with gastric ulcers. It has been reported that the therapy with the plant extract significantly accelerated wound healing, which directly resulted in improved well-being of patients.

Rejuvenating effects

It is also useful in fight against cellulite in women. The studies suggest that Gotu kola directly affects fibroblasts, dermis cells, so that it regenerates and nourishes them, which can result in significant reduction of cellulite, up to 82%.
