After surgery I want to get the healing process started fast. I'm going to have more anesthesia in me and loaded up with other meds. so, I want them out of my system quickly. I will start taking an antioxidant with a probiotic to help with my immune system. Then I will be taking Gotu Kola to help speed up the recovery process and Milk Thistle to help remove the toxins from my liver.
Gotu kola is an herb that is commonly used in Traditional Chinese and Ayurvedic medicine.
Gotu kola is used to treat bacterial, viral, or parastitic infections such as urinary tract infection (UTI), shingles, leprosy, cholera, dysentery, syphilis, the common cold, influenza, H1N1 (swine) flu, elephantiasis, tuberculosis, and schistosomiasis.
Gotu kola is also used for fatigue, anxiety, depression, psychiatric disorders,Alzheimer's disease, and improving memory and intelligence. Other uses include wound healing, trauma, and circulation problems (venous insufficiency) including varicose veins, and blood clots in the legs.
Some people use gotu kola for sunstroke, tonsillitis, fluid around the lungs (pleurisy),liver disease (hepatitis), jaundice, systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), stomach pain, diarrhea, indigestion, stomach ulcers, epilepsy, asthma, “tired blood” (anemia),diabetes, and for helping them live longer.
Some women use gotu kola for preventing pregnancy, absence of menstrual periods, and to arouse sexual desire.
Gotu kola is sometimes applied to the skin for wound healing and reducing scars, includiung stretch marks caused by pregnancy.

How does it work?
Gotu kola contains certain chemicals that seem to decrease inflammation and also decrease blood pressure in veins. Gotu kola also seems to increase collagen production, which is important for wound healing.
(Make sure you do your own research or talk to your doctor to make sure Gotu Kola is right for you)
I will document my recovery and see how natural/alternative medicine along with a healthy diet does for my recovery process.
Wish me luck ; )
Salute to healthier living!!
