- In addition to helping the blood arrive where
its needed,
gotu kola
is like a food or balm for the connective tissues, says Dr. Catania. It contains many
important raw materials such as flavonoids that help build healthy tissues. "Although
you get some of these building blocks in your food, theyre more concentrated in the
herb," says Dr. Catania. "Gotu kola helps
the structure of connective tissues develop normally."
Dr. Catania
recommends gotu kola for people with skin conditions and for those who are about to have
surgery or are recovering from an injury. Its also helpful for anyone who tends to
heal poorly, a condition sometimes caused by diabetes.
