Medi-Gel

A miracle drug discovered in the Mid Rim, Medi-gel is harvested from a unique coral that grows in waters exposed to a certain kind of gamma radiation. Primarily harvested on oceanic planets, Medi-gel is a used not only to clean and disinfect wounds, but also to rapidly grow back damaged skin and other nerve endings. Long exposure to medi-gel can heal more serious ailments, like cancer or other disease. 
Medi-Gel is difficult to cultivate, and the corals only grow deep in the ocean, in vast craters. Scientific findings point towards the asteroids that struck the planets like Zooma's World, Blue Dot or Aquatolis, and the minerals onboard led to the distinct corals producing the Gel to grow. 
These hyper-specific growing conditions mean that planets with Medi-Gel deposites are highly valuable, and that the gel is incredibly rare when the scale of the galaxy is considered. Attempts to artificially recreate Medi-Gel have at best created a mere shadow of the original.
