Doctors Script:

Ayubowan!

I am Dr. Haresha, a researcher from Barberyn Ayurveda Resorts and Institute of Ayurveda and Alternative Medicine. In the wake of the Covid-19 outbreak, Dr. Chamal and I researched Covid-19 with the Ayurvedic medical system.

Five thousand years ago, our great sages had spoken about such infectious diseases as Janapadodwansa diseases. Sage Charaka says this is mainly due to moving away from a healthy state. My colleague Dr. Pushpa has already explained about a healthy person described in Ayurveda.

We all know that prevention is better than cure while there is no medicine for Covid-19 as of now, we have found several important facts regarding the current outbreak through our research. Some of them are proper & nutrient food, a healthy lifestyle, a pleasant mind, and good immunity. Among them, enhancing the body’s natural defense system (Immunity) plays a vital role in maintaining optimum health.

Barberyn Webinar Video: Cooking Demonstration

Manick – How to Cook Healthy & Tasty Food

We have come to this point of culinary development from a diet of mainly raw leaves.
In the early times we adopted a simple style of cooking which was boiling all the ingredients together and this still remains with the Soup which is also a basic dish in the west.
Bringing the food to a boiling point and simmering on low heat is the basis of Sri Lanka cuisine and the curry, as with the soup. Coconut milk and the spices add flavor and nutrition to the Curry.
Rice also follows this same method. People are moving away from this slow-cooking methods
Because of the fast pace of life and we are fortunate that the method still prevails and there is a greater awareness in preserving the value and nourishment of the ingredients.
