Suggested Use

For use as a general, daily tonic: Use ⅛-¼ of a teaspoon once or twice daily.
Sensitive individuals may want to start with only 1/8th of a teaspoon once daily and assess the results.

How to Use In The Kitchen And On-The-Go: 
While most supercritical extracts are only available in a liquid form, Organic Traditions proprietary technology offers this dual-extraction in an easy to use, semisoluble, free flowing powder.
The powder is extremely concentrated. Adjust the amount for your needs and for each unique application.

⅛-¼ of a teaspoon of Full Spectrum Gotu Kola powder can be added to 8-16oz. water, coconut water, any beverage, smoothie or recipe. Make warm tea-like infusions by adding the powder to warm water (not boiling) and a natural sweetener of your choice such as Organic Traditions Yacon Syrup or Organic Traditions Coconut Palm Sugar.

A cup of Gotu Kola tea (do not use hot or boiling water – lukewarm water is fine) with Yacon or Coconut Palm Sugar is wonderful before any mental activity or meditative practice or can be used as a daily tonic. In traditional Ayurveda, Gotu Kola is often combined with Brahmi in a milk decoction or combined with Ghee. You can choose to use almond milk or any other non-dairy milk as an alternative.

Please note that Gotu Kola has a very bitter taste and so use very little and combine with a sweetener of your choice.
