Ayurvedaya Kothalahimbutu Diabetic Capsules are a dietary supplement made from a single ingredient: pure dry powder of Salacia reticulata, the plant known in Sinhala as kothala himbutu. Each capsule contains 500 mg of that powder, and the pack holds 90 capsules, giving a generous supply at the stated serving size. The product is classified on pack as a dietary supplement, not a pharmaceutical medicine.
Salacia reticulata is a large woody climber indigenous to Sri Lanka, the Andaman Islands, and parts of south India, where it grows in dry-zone forests. In Sri Lanka it carries centuries of documented use within the Ayurvedic tradition, and the plant is recognised across the subcontinent under several regional names — Ponkoranti in Tamil, Ekanayakam in Malayalam, and Saptaragni in Sanskrit, among others. The root and stem of the plant are the parts most extensively drawn upon in traditional Ayurvedic practice.
This product is manufactured and exported by Orbit World International (Pvt) Ltd, which describes itself on pack as the Group of Morawaka Weda Gedara, a lineage it characterises as generation to generation. The facility holds ISO 22000:2018, HACCP, and GMP certification — an internationally recognised food safety management framework that covers processing, packaging, and storage. The label declares the contents 100% Organic, Pure and Natural, and confirms this is a product of Sri Lanka.
The pack lists no excipients, fillers, or additional extracts: the sole declared ingredient is pure Kothalahimbutu dry powder. The nutrition facts panel shows zero calories, zero fat, zero carbohydrate, and zero protein per serving, reflecting the negligible macronutrient contribution of the encapsulated plant powder. The stated direction on pack is two capsules daily, taken before meals.
Once the pack is opened, the label instructs keeping the capsules in an air-tight container. The product is marketed by iZone Solutions (Pvt) Ltd, based in Panadura, Sri Lanka, under the Ayurvedaya brand.
