These nocturnal animals have a life span of 5-10 years. There are about 2000 species of varying colors but research has shown that the most nutritional and pure species is the golden gamat or Stichopus hermanii. These remarkable sea animals can rejuvenate themselves when mutilated. Gamat that has been cut into two and thrown back into the sea will continue growing as two separate gamats.

traditional medicine by the Chinese and Malays for more than 500 years, modern science is just now learning about this remarkable creature.
