Education for the Community on Gotu Kola Leaves as a Facial Moisturizer

The document discusses an educational initiative aimed at informing the public about the benefits of gotu kola leaves as a natural facial moisturizer. Gotu kola contains active compounds like alkaloids, flavonoids, saponins, and tannins, which are beneficial for skin care. The program was conducted in Langkat using presentations and print media, targeting children, teenagers, and mothers. The initiative successfully increased participants' knowledge about using gotu kola leaves for facial care, as evidenced by improved pre-test and post-test scores. Prior to this, the community was largely unaware of these benefits.
