There is a legend in Sri Lanka that elephants - the animals with the longest memories in the animal kingdom - eat gotu kola preferentially, which is how this small, fan-shaped creeping plant earned its reputation as the 'herb of longevity' and 'food for the brain.' Whether the elephant story is true is debatable. What is not debatable is that gotu kola has been used in Ayurvedic, Chinese, and Indonesian medicine for cognitive and skin wellness for over 3,000 years.
Dr. HERBALIST Gotu Kola Extract delivers 550mg of concentrated Centella asiatica per capsule - one of the highest per-capsule servings available in the market. The extract is rich in triterpenoid saponins, specifically asiaticoside and madecassoside - the compounds at the intersection of two distinct research fields: cognitive function and skin tissue wellness.*
This dual-system activity is what makes gotu kola unusual. Most nootropic herbs do not support skin. Most skin-wellness herbs do not support cognition. Gotu kola does both - and has been doing both long enough that separate traditional medicine systems on separate continents documented the same dual benefit independently.*
Known as brahmi in certain Ayurvedic traditions (not to be confused with bacopa, which also carries the brahmi name), mandukaparni in classical texts, and pegaga in Malay cuisine (where it is eaten raw in salads), gotu kola is the rare supplement that is also a salad ingredient.
One capsule daily. Brain and skin from a single botanical. The elephant diet, minus the elephant.
