In the fight against the COVID-19 pandemic in Sri Lanka, the wisdom of Ayurveda and its remedies to enhance immunity has been recognized by the Government of Sri Lanka.
The wisdom of Ayurveda, ‘Sushruta Samhita’ written in 1200-600 BC clearly explains how a disease can be contagious, and also how it can be prevented. Ayurveda focuses on preventing diseases as much as curative remedial procedures, and it states that immunity, physical and mental strength and hygienic practices are the paramount means to prevent a disease from spreading and becoming contagious.
As the country’s pioneer and leading Ayurveda products manufacturer, Ayurveda health-care service provider and promoter Hettigoda Group, with a heritage of over 200 years passing on to the 6th generation, is playing a key role in shaping the future of Ayurveda industry in Sri Lanka and the Asian region. Its flagship brand Siddhalepa is now a household name and it is the ‘Vedamahattaya in every household’. Our consumers, the people of Sri Lanka, have shown the trust and faith towards us and have embraced Siddhalepa for 85 years.
Siddhalepa has been with the people of Sri Lanka through numerous adversities to the nation. Whether it is tsunami, flood or any other disaster faced by the country, Siddhalepa has come to the forefront to look after our people by being a great example of corporate social responsibility.
As the leader of the Ayurveda industry in Sri Lanka, who identified the importance of educating and producing immune-boosting products for the community in the fight against COVID-19, Siddhalepa donated Ayurveda medicines to IDH hospital on 9 April. Siddhalepa Group Managing Director Mr. Asoka Hettigoda and staff handed over the goods to IDH Director Dr. Hasitha Aththanayaka and Dr. Ananda Wijewickrama. Siddhalepa wishes the best of health to all hospital staff, doctors and nurses in the country who are making a tremendous commitment in the fight against Covid19.
