In Ayurveda, it is known as brahmi or mandukaparni, and it has also appeared for generations in Chinese herbal tradition. Vit4ever brings this classic plant back in a modern, standardized form: 1500 mg of extract per daily serving of two capsules, with a fixed content of 4% asiaticoside.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat Asiaticoside is and why it is standardized\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe plant substances for which Centella asiatica is known are triterpene saponins, a group of natural compounds that the plant produces itself. Asiaticoside is the most important and most measured representative. In addition, the plant contains madecassoside, asiatic acid, and madecassic acid, substances that often appear in combination with each other. With ordinary plant powder, the content of these substances can vary greatly, depending on the origin, the time of harvest, and the season in which the plant was picked. A standardized extract solves this problem. \"Standardized to 4% asiaticoside\" means that the extract has been processed and controlled so that each serving contains a fixed percentage of this marker substance, regardless of fluctuations in the raw plant. For 1500 mg of extract, this amounts to 60 mg of asiaticoside per day. Vit4ever also has the extract tested in a laboratory, so that the stated content is truly present in the capsule. This way, you know precisely with each pot what you are consuming, instead of a variable amount that can differ from batch to batch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFrom plant to capsule\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor the extract, the aerial parts of the plant are used: the leaves and stems. These are first dried and then concentrated by an extraction process, during which the asiaticoside content is adjusted to the fixed 4%. The resulting powder is placed in a vegetable hydroxypropyl methylcellulose capsule, a material that contains no animal components. As a separating agent, only stearic acid is used, a substance that prevents the powder from sticking to the machines during the production process. Furthermore, it contains no excipients, flavorings, colorings, or preservatives. The ingredient list thus remains short and clear: extract, capsule shell, and separating agent, nothing more. Packaging takes place in Germany according to fixed quality standards, with controls on both the asiaticoside content and the purity of the extract.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eVegan and with a long supply in one pot\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs the capsule shell is vegetable and no animal ingredients are involved, Gotu Kola fits into a vegan diet. It contains no gelatin, lactose, or gluten, which also makes it interesting for people who, for other reasons, pay attention to what their supplements contain. One pot contains 120 capsules. With the recommended serving of two capsules per day, you thus have a supply for 60 days, or two months. This makes it a practical choice for those who want to integrate the plant into a fixed routine over a longer period, without having to order a new pot halfway through. Many people who discover Centella asiatica wonder how long such a plant extract actually lasts: with daily use of two capsules, you count two months per pot.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAbout dosage and use\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe recommended daily serving is two capsules, to be taken with sufficient liquid without chewing them. You do not have to chew or open the capsules, as is the case with some herbal tablets: you take them whole. Observe the indicated serving and do not exceed it. A food supplement does not replace a varied diet and a balanced lifestyle, and Gotu Kola is no exception. Those who discover Centella asiatica for the first time often wonder why it is precisely the asiaticoside content that is used as a reference: this is because this substance is the easiest to measure and thus constitutes the most reliable indicator of the extract's quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor Gotu Kola, no specific health claims have been approved under European legislation. We therefore describe what the plant is, where it comes from, and how the extract is composed, and we deliberately refrain from any claims about a possible effect.
