Naturista Gotukola Powder 125g is produced in Sri Lanka from 100% natural Gotukola leaves.

What is Gotukola?

Centella asiatica is a low-growing plant with rounded leaves. Naturista describes two familiar forms: a larger “Gas” gotu kola and a smaller “Vel” gotu kola. The Sinhala word kola refers to a leaf, and the plant’s cup-like leaf shape is associated with the name gotu kola.

Fresh gotu kola is well known in Sri Lanka, including in finely chopped sambol-style dishes. This packaged product is a leaf powder designed primarily as a drink, not a ready-made sambol, tea bag or conventional black tea. Its concentrated dried format makes measuring and storage more convenient than washing and grinding fresh leaves.

Gotu kola, Brahmi and botanical naming

The official manufacturer page notes that gotu kola is called “Brahmi” in some Ayurvedic contexts. However, the name Brahmi is also used in trade for other plants in different regions. The botanical name Centella asiatica is therefore the clearest way for international customers to identify this product and avoid confusing it with a different herb.

This naming and cultural information does not establish a health effect. Traditional use can explain why a product is consumed, but it should not be treated as proof that the powder improves cognition, circulation or any medical condition.

How to prepare the hot drink

1. Measure one spoonful using only the spoon supplied inside the container.
2. Add the powder to 100ml of boiling water.
3. Stir well, then cover the cup for 4–6 minutes.
4. Stir again before drinking.
5. The manufacturer suggests one drink in the morning on an empty stomach.
6. If preferred, it may be taken with a small piece of jaggery.

Fine leaf particles may remain or settle naturally. Stirring a second time helps redistribute the powder. Use a clean, dry supplied spoon and never return a wet spoon to the container. Follow the current pack and enclosed instruction leaflet if their serving or timing differs from the online directions.

Flavour and serving expectations

Gotukola leaf powder has a green, earthy and distinctly herbal character rather than the flavour of sweet tea. The product itself is listed as sugar-free, while jaggery is an optional accompaniment suggested by the manufacturer. Begin with the stated water volume and serving instead of increasing the powder to create a stronger taste.

Naturista describes the container as sufficient for approximately three months when used according to its directions. The actual number of servings depends on the supplied spoon and individual frequency, so the duration is an estimate rather than a guarantee.

Storage and product care

After opening, keep the container tightly sealed in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, humidity and cooking steam. Use only a clean, dry measuring spoon. Check the seal when the product arrives and follow the printed best-before date instead of calculating one from the manufacturer’s general one-year shelf-life statement.
