Found growing in hot, swampy regions around the world, from India to the southern United States, the herb gotu kola (Centella asiatica) has a storied past.Due to the similarity in their names, gotu kola is sometimes confused with kola nut, a caffeine-containing stimulant used to produce cola beverages. In fact, the two are not related.

Health Benefits

The enduring popularity of gotu kola has been attributed to active ingredients known as triterpenes. These substances are believed to enhance the production of the tough, fibrous protein known as collagen, which is found in cartilage, bones, and connective tissues. Triterpenes also help to keep blood vessels strong and assist in producing essential neurotransmitters, the brains chemical messengers.

When applied externally as part of a compress, gotu kola encourages the healing of burns, wounds, and various skin irritations. Some studies suggest that you can apply a gotu kola ointment directly to affected areas to promote healing as well.
