GOTU KOLA
Centella Asiatica

Gotu Kola is one of those herbs you have most likely heard of but don’t have a clue what it is. The Gotu Kola plant is used for wounds, scratched and burns healing. It has been also used as anti-inflammatory agent, antipyretic, diuretic, rheumatic, antibacterial, antiviral drug and as an anti-cancer drug. In the cosmetic industry, this plant is used to treat photo-aging skin, liposclerosis (cellulite) and striae.

It works hard to repair and rejuvinate skin and, in Chinese ancient legends, is known as the miracle Elixir of Life used by one of the oldest lived Sages’ who made it past the 200 year milestone!
