INTRODUCING CENTELLA ASIATICA
Centella asiatica , scientifically known as Centella asiatica, is a creeping herbaceous plant belonging to the Apiaceae family. It is common in tropical and subtropical regions and is widely cultivated and used in both cuisine and traditional medicine.
Centella asiatica has small, round or heart-shaped leaves that grow in clusters of vibrant green foliage. The leaves are deep green with prominent veins. The roots of Centella asiatica typically grow short and horizontally, and they have a brownish color.

Specifically, in every 100g of Centella asiatica, there are nutrients such as Cellulose fiber, Vitamin A, Vitamin B1, Vitamin B2, Vitamin B3, Vitamin C, Beta Carotene, Sterol, Saponin, Flavonoid, Zinc,…
