Centella is a mild adaptogen, is mildly antibacterial, antiviral, anti-inflammatory, antiulcerogenic, anxiolytic, nervine and vulnerary, and can act as a cerebral tonic, a circulatory stimulant, and a diuretic.[9][10]
Centella asiatica may be useful in the treatment of anxiety.[11]
In Thailand, tisanes of the leaves are used as an afternoon stimulant.[12] A decoction of juice from the leaves is thought to relieve hypertension.[citation needed] A poultice of the leaves is also used to treat open sores.
Richard Lucas claimed in a book published in 1966[13](second edition in 1979) that a subspecies "Hydrocotyle asiatica minor" allegedly from Sri Lanka also called fo ti tieng, contained a longevity factor called 'youth Vitamin X' said to be 'a tonic for the brain and endocrine glands' and maintained that extracts of the plant help circulation and skin problems.[14]
Several scientific reports have documented Centella asiatica's ability to aid wound healing[15][16] which is responsible for its traditional use in leprosy. Upon treatment with Centella asiatica, maturation of the scar is stimulated by the production of type I collagen. The treatment also results in a marked decrease in inflammatory reaction and myofibroblast production.[17]
The isolated steroids from the plant also have been used to treat leprosy.[18][19] In addition, preliminary evidence suggests that it may havenootropic effects.[10] Centella asiatica is used to revitalize the brain and nervous system, increase attention span and concentration,[20] and combat aging.[10] Centella asiatica also has antioxidant properties.[9] It works for venous insufficiency.[21] It is used in Thailand for opium detoxification.
Followers of Sri Sri Thakur Anukulchandra, commonly known as Satsangees, all over the world take one or two fresh leaves with plenty of water in the morning after morning rituals. This is prescribed by Sri Sri Thakur himself.
