For centuries in countries such as Indonesia, China, or India, Centella asiatica or Gotu Kola has been used to treat skin ailments thanks to its regenerative properties. More recently, its use has spread to the US and Europe.
Several studies have proven that the triterpenes contained in this plant exert an antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and re-epithelializing effect by stimulating the production of type 1 collagen, invigorating the skin, and speeding up healing. That’s why Gotu kola extract is so beneficial for treating scars, stretch marks, minor burns, and psoriasis.
In addition, gotu kola improves the symptoms of venous stasis, which is why it’s also used to treat pre-varicose syndromes. Peripheral circulatory failure, which affects between 70 and 80% of all people in Spain, predominantly affects the legs and causes symptoms like swelling, intense pain, tingling, itching, and redness. Gotu kola’s venotonic properties alleviate the discomfort caused by venous insufficiency.
