This is not your average supplement; expect to feel better as soon as you take it. Be careful not to take too many of these. It makes me feel very stimulated and energetic. Just by taking one supplement I get an instant "pick-me-up". This is quite a pleasant surprise. Swanson's Gotu Kola 435 Mg caps will be on my grocery list from now on.

IN A NUTSHELL: VERY GOOD STUFF - VERY GOOD PRICE
Swanson's offers this Gotu Kola whole herb in 435 mg. capsules for just 2 cents each! Although I have also purchased their standardized product, it has only 100 mg. of Standardized Gotu Kola for almost 4 times the cost, making this specific version of Gotu Kola a best buy and MY personal choice for daily use.
WHAT'S GOTU KOLA GOOD FOR? JUST ASK AN ELEPHANT:THEY EAT TONS OF IT
Gotu kola works well with Ginko Biloba in enhancing the vascular system generally, and the brain's functioning specifically. Like Ginkgo, Gotu Kola is extremely safe for human consumption.

Gotu kola has been a key player in the medicinal systems of central Asia for centuries. In Sri Lanka, it was reputed to extend life, because the leaves are commonly eaten by elephants and elephants have a long and healthy life.
Also, a variety of skin disorders, ranging from poorly healing wounds to leprosy, have routinely been treated with gotu kola. Through mostly anecdotal evidence, Gotu kola has gained an historical reputation for enhancing mental activity and cognitive function. Beyond that, Gotu Kola has also been known to aid in the treatment of a variety of illnesses, such as hypertension, rheumatism, fever, and nervous disorders.
In Ayurvedic medicine Gotu Kola's applications include the treatment of heart disease, water retention, hoarseness, bronchitis, and coughs in children, and as a poultice for many skin conditions.
GOTU KOLA'S POTENTIAL TO AID LEARNING DISABLED CHILDREN IS PROMISING!
Modern American studies have focused on Gotu Kola's affect on the brain where there has been particularly promising research conducted using Gotu Kola to improve the cognitive function of learning disabled children. Look for continued research to reveal more Gotu Kola connections to improving brain function in the near future.
