In Sri Lanka is de Ayurveda-geneeskunde gebaseerd op de eeuwenoude schat aan inheemse kennis, de natuurlijke omgeving en het culturele repertoire van het land. Volgens archeologisch bewijs gaat de menselijke beschaving 30.000 jaar terug. Holbewoners uit die tijd domesticeerden veel wilde plantensoorten en gebruikten deze voor voedsel en medicijnen.
Commonly known as Venival or Venivelgeta (Coscinium fenestratum) in Sri Lanka and also known as Yellow Vine, Tree Turmeric or Calumba Wood around the world, it is an important herbal plant that is used in traditional medicinal practices such as Ayurveda. The roots and stem / bark of the creeper are mainly used in various herbal concoctions, while it is mainly paired with Coriander. Venival, when boiled, exudes a yellowish tint while it is treasured for its anti-inflammatory properties.
Venivel has the potential to offer relief for colds, fever, skin ailments, wounds, pains, ulcers and even tetanus. It may also regulate blood sugar levels too. The taste of venivel is bitter, but many people endure it due to its wholesome goodness. Other than consuming the boiled herbal drink, tree turmeric is also used in many skin-care preparations where you can use it to cleanse and rejuvenate your skin.
