Brahmi / Mandukaparni (Gotu Kola) — Natural & Powder

This listing is attributed to Centella asiatica (L.) Urb., also called Mandukaparni or Gotu Kola. Choose Natural dried herb or Powder in 100 g, 200 g, 400 g or 900 g packs. It is a dried herb listing, not a live plant, planting seed, standardized extract or capsule.

Centella versus Bacopa: check the botanical name

Brahmi is an overlapping trade name. Centella asiatica and Bacopa monnieri are different species. This page is the Centella/Mandukaparni listing; do not substitute it for a Bacopa-specific preparation based on the word Brahmi alone. Kew accepts Centella asiatica, with Hydrocotyle asiatica L. as a botanical synonym.

Choose the form and pack

Natural is dried whole-herb material in recognizable pieces; Powder is ground herb material. The photographs show dried leafy material and thin stems, not a verified powder photo. Select form and weight to see current price and availability. The exact leaf-to-stem ratio is not specified; if your preparation requires leaf-only material or a defined whole-plant specification, confirm the supplied batch first.

Names and traditional reference

IISc India Flora Online documents the reference species and regional plant names. The Ayurvedic Pharmacopoeia's Mandukaparni entry identifies whole plant; NMPB's cultivation reference describes whole plant, mainly leaves. These reference descriptions do not certify the proportions or botanical authenticity of an individual supplier lot.

Use, precautions and storage

Match the actual material to your intended preparation and follow the pack instructions. For medicinal use, ask a qualified Ayurvedic or healthcare professional about quantity and suitability. This page prescribes no universal dose or guaranteed memory, hair, skin or disease result. Pregnancy, breastfeeding, children's use, regular medicines and medical conditions need individual guidance.

Keep tightly sealed, cool and dry, away from moisture, heat and direct sunlight. Use a clean, dry spoon for powder and do not use visibly mouldy or contaminated material.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Gotu Kola, and what is it called in Hindi?

Gotu Kola is a name for Centella asiatica. This listing uses Brahmi/Mandukaparni; IISc also records Kulakudi and Brahma manduki in Hindi. Check Centella asiatica on the specification because trade names can overlap.

Is this Bacopa monnieri Brahmi?

No. This listing is attributed to Centella asiatica/Mandukaparni. Bacopa monnieri is a different species; do not assume products called Brahmi are interchangeable.

Is Natural Gotu Kola leaf-only material?

The listing describes dried whole herb, and the photographs show leafy material with stems. No fixed leaf-to-stem ratio or leaf-only specification is provided. Confirm the batch if your preparation requires a specific part.

Is Gotu Kola powder the same as an extract powder?

No extract concentration or standardized constituent percentage is asserted here. The Powder option is ground herb material; it should not automatically be substituted for a concentrated extract.

Can I grow Gotu Kola from this product?

This is dried herb/Powder, not a live plant or planting-seed product. No germination or plant-growing suitability is claimed.

Can I eat these leaves or follow an internet daily dose?

Do not assume a raw-herb pack is equivalent to fresh culinary leaves. Confirm its intended use and suitability. For internal or medicinal preparations, follow actual label instructions and qualified guidance rather than a universal internet dose.

What is the Gotu Kola powder price and which pack can I buy?

Natural and Powder each offer 100 g, 200 g, 400 g and 900 g. Choose form and weight for current price and stock; pack weight is not a daily dose.
