R80.00
Pharma Germania Natural Products Gotu Kola Herb Cut contains dried Centella asiatica, an important botanical used extensively in Ayurvedic and traditional Asian herbal practices.
Older herbal references and product literature may identify Gotu Kola as Hydrocotyle asiatica. This is a botanical synonym of Centella asiatica, rather than a different herb.
Gotu Kola has traditionally been valued as a nervous-system and cognitive tonic, with applications relating to memory, concentration, mental clarity and general cognitive wellbeing.
The herb also has a longstanding association with circulatory and connective tissue support. Its characteristic triterpenoid compounds, including asiaticoside and madecassoside, have been studied in relation to connective tissue and microcirculatory function.
Gotu Kola does not contain caffeine and should not be confused with Kola Nut (Cola species), despite the similarity in their common names.

Why Choose Pharma Germania Gotu Kola Herb Cut?
Gotu Kola has a particularly long history within Ayurvedic and traditional Asian herbal medicine, where it has been valued as a restorative herb for the mind and body.
Its characteristic constituents include triterpenoid compounds such as asiaticoside, madecassoside, asiatic acid and madecassic acid.
These compounds have generated interest in Gotu Kola’s traditional applications relating to cognitive wellness, microcirculation and connective tissue function.
Although traditionally used for numerous neurological, vascular and skin conditions, Gotu Kola should be regarded as supportive herbal care rather than a treatment for dementia, anxiety disorders, varicose veins, chronic venous insufficiency or skin disease.
