It was used for a wide variety of complaints including fever, diarrhea, leprosy, nervous disorders, menstrual problems, jaundice and rheumatism. It was also used for many skin conditions such as eczema, psoriasis and lupus. </div> <bR> <div> It became popular in the West after the Second World War when it was sold in a herbal blend. Gotu Kola's longevity properties were heavily promoted. These properties have never been scientifically proven.</div> <bR> <DIV ALIGN="LEFT"></DIV> <div> <TABLE BORDER="2" CELLPADDING="1" CELLSPACING="1" WIDTH="431" BORDERCOLORLIGHT="#C0C0C0" BORDERCOLORDARK="#808080" FRAME="BOX" RULES="ALL" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0" > <tR> <tD VALIGN=CENTER BGCOLOR=#FFFFFF HEIGHT= 117 WIDTH="421"><div> Disclaimer: The information presented is for information purposes only.
