Gymnema Sylvestre is a woody climbing shrub that’s native to the tropical forests of India, Africa and Australia. Its leaves have been used in the ancient Indian medicinal practice Ayurveda for thousands of years. Accordingly to ayurveda it is called Gudmar, which literally means ‘Sugar-Destroyer’. Also if we chew Gudmar leaves, then our tongue becomes dead to Sugar taste for 1-2 hours. As per Bhavprakash Nighantu (Ancient Ayurvedic Text), Gudmar herb is bitter in taste, has pungent taste after digestion, with drying properties & aggravates Vata dosha. Gudmar supports regularizing bowel movements, improving digestion, suppressing sugar cravings & healthy glucose metabolism. Research shows that Gymnema Sylvestre is an effective remedy that helps in maintaining healthy blood sugar levels already in the normal range. Daily consumption of Gymnema Sylvestre supplements has been shown to help in weight management. Gymnemic acid acts as an appetite suppressant that controls cravings and hunger. Pegged as the “herb of longevity,” gotu kola is a staple in traditional Chinese, Indonesian, and Ayurvedic medicine. Practitioners claim the medicinal plant has the power to boost brainpower, heal skin issues, and promote liver and kidney health — and some studies seem to agree. It is a perennial plant indigenous to the tropical wetlands of Southeast Asia, where it is commonly used as a juice, tea, or green leafy vegetable. Among alternative practitioners, gotu kola is believed to have many potential health benefits. When used topically, gotu kola may help speed the healing of wounds and reduce the appearance of stretch marks and scars. In Southeast Asia, gotu kola is used as much for food as for medicinal purposes. A member of the parsley family, gotu kola is a good source of essential vitamins and minerals needed to maintain optimal health.
