Simplisia vs Super Hydro™: extraction separates active compounds from fibre and starch

Super Hydro™ is an extraction method developed by BBK's extract manufacturing team. It draws out the active compounds of natural materials more effectively at a lower concentration. Based on our internal testing, a Super Hydro™ extract at a 2:1 ratio delivers performance comparable to a 5:1 extract from non-standardised producers.

Patent status: The Super Hydro™ method is currently patent pending. Even so, every BBK extract has been produced with this method from the start, so each batch you receive meets a quality standard above the market average.

Research & product opportunities

Gotu Kola Extract (Centella asiatica): 3 Studies and Product Opportunities

Gotu kola (pegagan), or Centella asiatica, is a key Asian skincare ingredient and a traditional herb for memory. Human evidence is most promising for topical skin care. For cognitive function, a meta-analysis actually found no significant effect.

Study 1 · Meta-analysis Very strong evidence

Efficacy and Safety of Centella Asiatica (L.) Urb. on Wrinkles: A Systematic Review of Published Data and Network Meta-Analysis.

Kongkaew, Meesomperm, Scholfield, et al. Journal of cosmetic science, 2020.

Study design: Systematic review and network meta-analysis of 5 double-blind randomized clinical trials with a total of 172 Asian women, using gels, creams, or lipsticks containing Centella asiatica or asiaticoside.

Key findings
  • Two studies compared gotu kola gel or cream around the eyes for 12 weeks with placebo; in the network meta-analysis, gotu kola appeared more effective than Pueraria mirifica but possibly less effective than tretinoin.
  • Lipstick containing asiaticoside for 8 weeks reduced lip wrinkles.
  • Skin hydration clearly increased with Centella asiatica; one study recorded 10 side effects for gotu kola and 35 for tretinoin.
  • Weak standardization of gotu kola limits how widely the results can be applied.

What it means for your product: A strong basis for anti-aging and moisturizing skincare. Asiaticoside standardization on the CoA is an important selling point.

Study 2 · Meta-analysis Very strong evidence

Effects of Centella asiatica (L.) Urb. on cognitive function and mood related outcomes: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis.

Puttarak, Dilokthornsakul, Saokaew, et al. Scientific reports, 2017.

Study design: Systematic review and meta-analysis of 5 randomized clinical trials of gotu kola alone and 6 clinical trials of products containing gotu kola.

Key findings
  • There was no significant difference compared with placebo in any domain of cognitive function.
  • Alertness scores increased (SMD 0.71) and anger scores decreased (SMD -0.81) 1 hour after intake.
  • No study reported side effects of gotu kola.
  • Doses, dosage forms, and standardization varied between studies.

What it means for your product: Memory claims are not supported by strong evidence. Oral opportunities are more realistic through tradition and relaxation positioning, not improved intelligence.

Study 3 · Systematic review Supporting evidence

A Systematic Review of the Effect of Centella asiatica on Wound Healing.

Arribas-López, Zand, Ojo, et al. International journal of environmental research and public health, 2022.

Study design: Systematic review of 4 clinical trials on the effect of Centella asiatica on wound healing.

Key findings
  • Parameters assessed included wound contraction, re-epithelialization, VAS pain score, skin redness, and wound appearance.
  • Gotu kola is thought to support wound healing by stimulating collagen I, FGF, and VEGF.
  • Anti-inflammatory effects were seen in lower IL-1β, IL-6, and TNFα.
  • The authors say there are still too few studies for a meta-analysis.

What it means for your product: Supports a skin repair and barrier care story for cosmetics. Wound healing claims fall in the drug category, so avoid them for cosmetics.

Claims you can make

Language guide for B2B and educational materials. Claims on finished product labels and ads must be the ones approved by BPOM at registration.

OK to say

  • Contains gotu kola extract (Centella asiatica) with asiaticoside as a marker.
  • Centella asiatica has been studied in cosmetic clinical trials related to wrinkles and skin hydration (cite the source).
  • Gotu kola has been used for generations in Indonesian jamu.

Avoid

  • Improves memory or intelligence, or prevents dementia. A meta-analysis found no significant cognitive effect.
  • Heals wounds, scars, or skin diseases in cosmetic products.
  • Permanently removes wrinkles.

The skin evidence comes from topical preparations (gel, cream, lipstick), not oral intake. The asiaticoside content of the extract determines how close your formula is to the studies, so ask for a CoA per batch. BBK gotu kola extract is halal certified.

Using this research for BPOM registration

  1. Add the three journals above to the literature review or the safety and benefit supporting data in your product dossier.
  2. Attach BBK's specification and per-batch CoA as raw material quality data. The specification always ships with the order; CoA is available on request.
  3. Match your serving size to the doses used in the studies, then confirm final claims with a regulatory consultant or BPOM.

The studies above were not done with BBK products. BBK extracts are made with the Super Hydro™ method, but study results do not automatically apply to your finished product.
