The author distinguishes between the Ashi Taba in Japan on which she writes and others version that comes from South East Asia. The ones sold in Greenhills and given free seems to be Gynura Procumbers. It is darker in color and the serration in leaves is not very pronounced.
The earmark of Ashi Taba is when you break the stem, yellow sap comes out. It contains the chalcones that are good in treating pustules and cysts. She says Gynura does not contain this yellow sap
Why do Chinese rarerly have heart attacks?
This looks like my Asi Tava
