Every country has its own skin disease cure and Gotu Kola is one that hails from India. This low growing carrot relative thrives on the edges of ponds and streams and has been gathered by villagers for thousands of years to heal damaged skin and skin affected by chronic skin diseases. This includes fresh wounds, old wounds, acne, and the chronic skin irritation experienced in psoriasis and eczema. It has even been used to treat leprosy, the big skin condition. An interesting use is in reducing scar formation in individuals that keloid, that is those that develop excessively large scars.

Practitioners Advice:

This one should be used internally and externally to heal skin and or heal up chronic skin conditions. For those that keloid, it should be applied after the wound has entirely sealed and before the scar has formed.
