Gotu kola, a small and inconspicuous herb that thrives in tropical swamps, has a rich history and cultural significance. Its origin is not clear, but it is believed to have originated in Africa and spread to India through Madagascar. In India, it is considered a highly revered household herb with a reputation for being a panacea.

Gotu kola is regarded as an "Elixir of Life" due to its ability to stimulate "Chi," the life force, and its potential to increase longevity, vitality, and potency. Ayurvedic doctors often prescribe it to the elderly to counteract the effects of aging, and it has also been held in high esteem as a meditation aid for its ability to enhance concentration.

Despite being sometimes mistaken for Kola nuts, which contain caffeine, gotu kola does not contain caffeine and is not related to Kola nuts. The common European species of gotu kola, Centella vulgaris, does not possess the same beneficial effects as the original gotu kola.
