Gotu kola (Centella asiatica) is a small herbaceous plant native to Asia, often used in traditional medicine for its many health benefits. It is also known by other names such as Brahmi, Indian pennywort, and Asiatic pennywort.
 
Gotu kola has been traditionally used to improve memory and brain function, reduce anxiety, and promote relaxation. It is also believed to have anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, which can help protect the body from cellular damage and support overall health.
 
Studies have shown that gotu kola may also have benefits for skin health, wound healing, and circulation. It has been shown to help improve the appearance of scars and stretch marks, and may also help to reduce swelling and inflammation in the legs.
 
Gotu kola can be consumed in various forms, including teas, tinctures, and supplements. However, as with any supplement or herbal remedy, it is important to consult with a healthcare provider before using gotu kola, especially if you have any pre-existing medical conditions or are taking medications.
