Gotu Kola


Gotu kola is a leafy herb used fresh, dried, or as a powder, with a mild, slightly bitter flavor. It’s rich in vitamins A and C, and minerals like calcium and magnesium, often used in teas or smoothies.

Traditionally used in Asian and Ayurvedic remedies, gotu kola is valued for its calming effects and ability to boost mental clarity and vitality.

Gotu Kola features in the longevity tradition of the Tai Chi Chuan master Li Ching-Yuen. He purportedly lived to be 247, due in part to his usage of traditional Chinese herbs including Gotu Kola.

Gotu kola is a mild adaptogen (product that is proposed to increase the body’s resistance to stress, trauma, anxiety and fatigue), is mildly antibacterial, anti-viral, anti-inflammatory, anti-ulcerogenic (reduces the effect of ulcers), anxiolytic (reduces anxiety), a cerebral tonic, a circulatory stimulant, a diuretic (increases the rate of urine production of the kidneys thereby alleviating water retention), nervine (nerve tonic) and vulnerary (remedy used in healing or treating wounds). From Winston, D., Maimes, S., Adaptogens: Herbs For Strength, Stamina, and Stress Relief, 2007, pp. 226-7
