| | Gotu Kola Powder Cert. Organic (Hydrocotyle asiatica) 8 oz: B $18.25 Gotu Kola is known in India and Pakistan as a 'longevity' herb, though this has not been proven. It is used to increase energy, improve memory, and alleviate depression. Some people are using to treat Alzheimer's disease. It is also used externally on wounds, burns, and psoriasis. It seems to strengthen the walls of blood vessels, thus making it a possible treatment for varicose veins. Grieve's classic 'A Modern Herbal': 'A valuable medicine for its diuretic properties; has long been used in India as an aperient or alterative tonic, useful in fever and bowel complaints and a noted remedy for leprosy, rheumatism and ichthyosis; employed as a poultice for syphilitic ulcers. In small doses it acts as a stimulant, in large doses as a narcotic...' The herbs calming properties make it well suited for overcoming insomnia and making one calm for yoga and meditative practices. It is commonly used to rebuild energy reserves improve memory and treat fatigue, both mental and physical. Gotu kola has been referred to as ''food for the brain''. This oriental herb has demonstrated mild tranquilizing, anti-anxiety and anti-stress effects, as well as improving mental functions such as concentration and memory. It has a calming effect on the body and is chiefly used to support the central nervous system. These beneficial qualities make Gotu kola an excellent herb for children with A.D.D. because it has a stimulating effect on the brain that increases one's ability to focus while having a soothing and relaxing effect on an overactive nervous system. Gotu kola is often confused with kola nut. Due to this confusion, some people assume the rejuvenating properties of Gotu kola are due to the stimulating effects of caffeine contained in kola nut. In fact, Gotu kola is not related to kola nut and contains no caffeine. There are three main chemical constituents in Gotu kola. The first is asiaticoside, which is a triterpene glycoside and classified as an antibiotic. It aids in wound healing and has been used in the treatment of leprosy and tuberculosis in the Far East. The second constituent is a pair of chemicals, brahmoside and brahminoside, which are saponin glycosides. These are diuretic in nature and have a slightly sedative action in large doses. Finally, there is madecassoside, a glycoside that is a strong anti-inflammatory agent. The plant is also a source of Vitamin K, magnesium, calcium and sodium. Gotu Kola has been found to have significant results in healing of skin, other connective tissues, lymph tissue, blood vessels, and mucous membranes. Researchers have found that Gotu kola contains several glycosides that exhibit wound healing and anti-inflammatory activities and that asiaticosides stimulate the formation of lipids and proteins necessary for healthy skin.

| | Gotu Kola (Centella asiatica) 100/439 mg capsules: K $7.64 Nature's Herbs Wild Countryside Gotu Kola herb is harvested from its natural wild environment in nutrient-rich marshlands of India. Gotu Kola is widely used in many parts of the ayurvedic system of traditional medicine. Used throughout the Indian subcontinent as a poultice for skin diseases and the healing of wounds. It also has an ancient reputation for aiding mental clarity and lowering blood pressure. Hydrocotyle asiatica, listed by Grieve and King's, is sometimes listed as a synonym, but Oriental medical references say that Hydrocotyle is actually a different and medicinally inferior plant. Centella's saponins (including asiaticoside, madecassoside and madasiatic acid) seem to reduce scar formation in wound healing by inhibiting the production of connective tissue as they simultaneously close the wound. As the research below indicates, Centella has been experimentally shown to be 'effective in venous insufficiency, reducing ankle edema, foot swelling, capillary filtration rate and improving microcirculatory parameters.' The herb is very good news for varicose veins. This demonstrable improvement in microcirculatory efficiency may explain Gotu Kola's ancient reputation as an aid to mental clarity, high blood pressure, fever, rheumatism and mental disorders. http://www.herbmed.org/Herbs/Herb95.htm: Clinical Trials Microcirculatory parameters improved for 87 patients with chronic venous hypertensive microangiopathy taking 30 mg bid or 60 mg bid for 2 months Cesarone 1994 Bioavailability for asiatic acid and asiaticoside was quite similar, about 600 ng.h/ml, in 12 healthy Rush 1993 Review finds that Centella asiatica is effective in venous insufficiency, reducing ankle edema, foot swelling, capillary filtration rate and improving microcirculatory parameters Cesarone 1992 High circulating endothelial cells in postphlebitic patients was brought down by C asiatica triterpenic fraction Montecchio 1991 Varicose vein patients taking 60 mg/day for three months had declines in serum uronic acid 467 to 231 mcg/ml, beta-glycuronidase 1.8 to 1.2 microM, acetylglucosaminidase 23 to 18, arysulfatase 78 to 42 nM Arpaia 1990 Four weeks of triterpene fraction decreased capillary filtration rate, ankle circumference and edema in patients with venous pressure greater than 42 mmH Belcaro 1990 Two weeks' treatment with total triterpenic fraction, 60 mg, tid, decreased wheal disappearance time, indicating decreased capillary filtration and permeability Belcaro 1990 Plasma levels in humans, measured by HPLC, are higher with continuing twice daily ingestion than single dose of 30 or 60 mg of triterpenic fraction of Centella Grimaldi 1990 Titrated extract reduced symptoms of heaviness in the lower limbs and edema and improved venous distensibility in a double-blind randomized trial with 94 patients with venous insufficiency Pointel 1987 Observational Studies/Case Reports Scleroderma patients benefited f |
| | Gotu Kola Herb (Centella asiatica; Pennywort; Peng Da Wan) Powdered: 1 lb: V $16.38 Used as an infusion, decoction, extract, tincture and poultice. Used throughout the Indian subcontinent as a poultice for skin diseases and the healing of wounds. It also has an ancient reputation for aiding mental clarity and lowering blood pressure. Gotu kola is an outstandingly important medicinal herb that is widely used in the Orient and is becoming increasingly popular in the West. Its Indian name is 'Brahmi' which means 'bringing knowledge of the Supreme Reality' and it has long been used there medicinally and as an aid to meditation. It is a useful tonic and cleansing herb for skin problems and digestive disorders. In India it is chiefly valued as a revitalizing herb that strengthens nervous function and memory. The whole plant is alterative, cardio-depressant, hypotensive, weakly sedative and tonic. It is a rejuvenating diuretic herb that clears toxins, reduces inflammations and fevers, improves healing and immunity, improves the memory and has a balancing effect on the nervous system. It has been suggested that regular use of the herb can rejuvenate the nervous system and it therefore deserves attention as a possible cure for a wide range of nervous disorders including multiple sclerosis. Recent research has shown that gotu kola reduces scarring, improves circulatory problems in the lower limbs and speeds the healing process. It is used internally in the treatment of wounds, chronic skin conditions (including leprosy), venereal diseases, malaria, varicose veins, ulcers, nervous disorders and senility. Caution should be observed since excess doses cause headaches and transient unconsciousness. Externally, the herb is applied to wounds, haemorrhoids and rheumatic joints. Hydrocotyle asiatica, listed by Grieve and King's, is sometimes listed as a synonym, but Oriental medical references say that Hydrocotyle is actually a different and medicinally inferior plant.

This demonstrable improvement in microcirculatory efficiency may explain Gotu Kola's ancient reputation as an aid to mental clarity, high blood pressure, fever, rheumatism and mental disorders. |

Alzheimer's and Gotu Kola
what are the benefits when taking gotu kola?
what are the special functions of gotu kola?
Gotu kola is a mild adaptogen, is mildly antibacterial, anti-viral, anti-inflammatory, anti-ulcerogenic, anxiolytic, a cerebral tonic, a circulatory stimulant, a diuretic, nervine and vulnerary.[5][6]
When eaten raw as a salad leaf, pegaga is thought to help maintain youthfulness. In Thailand cups with gotu kola leaves are used as an afternoon pick me up.[7] A decoction of juice from the leaves is thought to relieve hypertension. This juice is also used as a general tonic for good health. A poultice of the leaves is also used to treat open sores.
Richard Lucas claimed in a book published in 1966 [8](second edition in 1979) that a subspecies "Hydrocotyle asiatica minor" allegedly from Sri Lanka also called "Fo ti tieng", contained a longevity factor called 'youth Vitamin X' said to be 'a tonic for the brain and endocrine glands' and maintained that extracts of the plant help circulation and skin problems.[9] However according to medicinal herbalist Michael Moore, it appears that there is no such subspecies and no Vitamin X is known to exist.[10] Nonetheless some of the cerebral circulatory and dermatological actions claimed from centella (as hydrocotyle) have a solid basis.
Several scientific reports have documented Centella asiatica's ability to aid wound healing, which is responsible for its traditional use in leprosy. Upon treatment with Centella asiatica, maturation of the scar is stimulated by the production of type I collagen. The treatment also results in a marked decrease in inflammatory reaction and myofibroblast production[11].
The isolated steroids from the plant have been used to treat leprosy.[12][13] In addition, preliminary evidence suggests that it may have nootropic effects.[14] Centella asiatica is used to re-vitalize the brain and nervous system, increase attention span and concentration [15], and combat aging.[14] Centella asiatica also has anti-oxidant properties.[5] It works for venous insufficiency.[16] It is used in Thailand for opium detoxification.
