A deciduous tree, extremely common in the Indian sub-continent, the bark of the Arjuna tree contains tannins and terpenoid saponins which help in lowering cholesterol and have a number of health benefits. The Ayurvedic herb is believed to regulate cholesterol by decreasing LDL levels in the liver. Considered highly beneficial for the liver, the herb shields the liver against the corrosive effects of toxins and acts as a liver tonic.
The extracts of Arjuna are known to help in strengthening the heart muscles, relieving stress, and hypertension. Arjuna is also thought to fortify the central nervous system and to quicken individual reflexes. Scientific studies further substantiate Ayurvedic claims that Arjuna has antioxidant properties and may be clinically helpful in cardiovascular health.
