Many plant parts are used here .The leaves can be prepared and eaten as a salad and it really is pretty much Gotu kola is similar to a salad. If we talk about the medicinal information we can get from this plant, * Stimulates the heart by making it healthy. * Strengthens the nerves by improving the sensory acuity of the nerves. * An effective anti-cough medicine. * Regulates the body's waste disposal process. * Increases appetite and causes hunger. * An anti-inflammatory drug for gastrointestinal diseases and indigestion. * This plant is used as a medicine for cough and asthma. * Improves blood circulation and maintains blood pressure in a favorable manner. * Removes unhealthy fats from the blood.

It takes a little time to make and is very easy to set up. ![G7LOexapdHNasGwgZegqoZREIMH.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmTxRtXVjL1a86WwztcAaxh5YM2TqkyvrGHYii74My35Gf/G7LOexapdHNasGwgZegqoZREIMH.jpg) _{This salad increases the appetite} I hope you all like this delicious nutritious salad.
