Has anyone tried Nootropics Depot Gotu Kola? Haven't seen any discussion on it. How does it compare to Ashwagandha for anxiety?

I find it to be more potent than ashwagandha. However, it can drag my energy down during the day if I mix it with other calming things. So now I use it before bed to improve sleep and wound healing. It's one I use every night now.

Gotu kola really needs to be enteric coated to work properly, as the asiaticoside and madecassoside will rapidly break down into asiatic acid and madecassic acid in the stomach. Both of those do have their own effects. So taking the powder or regular capsules will lead to effects. They just won't be the same effects as you see in studies assessing asiaticoside and madecassoside.

Empty stomach is probably best, but it should not matter too much with the enteric coating.

Just so you know, Himalaya has refused to give me a COA for their bacopa, and has even said they do not sell the "Brahmi" branded one in the US, due to higher lead limits. However, we all know they do sell it in the US.
