Sri Lankal põhineb ajurveeda meditsiin riigi sajanditepikkusel põlisrahvaste teadmiste, looduskeskkonna ja kultuuripärandi aardel. Arheoloogiliste tõendite kohaselt ulatub inimtsivilisatsioon 30 000 aasta taha. Selle aja koopainimesed kodustasid paljusid metsikuid taimeliike ning kasutasid neid toiduks ja ravimitena.
Locally known as Bovitiya or Heen Bovitiya (Osbeckia octandra), this endemic Sri Lankan shrub is treasured for its long-recognized medicinal value. Lakpura® Dehydrated Heenbovitiya Crushed Leaves are sourced from small-scale farmers who allow the plant to grow naturally in the wild, ensuring it remains 100% pesticide-free. The leaves are freshly picked and carefully dehydrated using traditional methods before being gently crushed, allowing them to retain their natural aroma, color, and therapeutic richness.
Packed with antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals, Heen Bovitiya is widely used to support overall wellness and liver health. The crushed leaves can be conveniently added to herbal teas, smoothies, curries, or sprinkled over cereal and yogurt for daily nutritional support. Traditionally, Heen Bovitiya has been associated with aiding conditions such as diabetes, hemorrhoids, hepatitis, jaundice, ascites, hyperlipidemia, and other liver-related disorders. It is also valued in herbal practice for its potential to help combat cancer cell activity.
