I took Gotu Kola for 12 months and this happened! #49

Down to Earth Herbalism with Tamara - A podcast by Tamara

Gotu Kola or Centella Asiatica is a superior nerve tonic from Ayurveda. When I had my own health challenge with Hashimoto's, Hypothyroidism, and brain fog I took Gotu Kola for over a year and after two weeks of taking it, I couldn't believe the amazing results. Gotu Kola's effect on the nervous system is pretty outstanding. It doesn't really fit into the category of calming nervines or sedatives like Lemonbalm, Lavender, Hops, Valerian, and Poppy Seed. Its effect is more long-term and it completely renews the nerve cells on a physical level. That's why I call it a nerve tonic. We have other categories of herbs, besides nervines, to address the nervous system, for example, adaptogens like Ashwagandha and Rhodiola, circulatories like Gingko, and even the anti-inflammatory herb Turmeric can be very beneficial for conditions like ADHD, anxiety, depression, focus, and memory as many scientific studies have confirmed.
