Terminalia arjuna is best heart-tonic and can be used daily for flawless cardiovascular system. Bark of Arjuna tree has been found to be rich in Co-enzyme Q-10 which is highly prescribed in cardiology departments nowadays to prevent heart problems. High amounts of Co-enzyme Q-10 prevent incidents of heart attack. It also has a tonic effect in cases of cirrhosis of the liver. It induces a drug-dependent decrease in blood pressure and heart rate. It has been reported to possess protective cardiovascular properties and the herb has been used as lipids controlling agent since many years in Ayurveda.

| Cardiovascular diseases are the major causes of death in most countries. Various factors are linked to heart diseases. Atherosclerosis or plaque build up in the coronary arteries is the most prominent cause of coronary artery disease. The plaque gradually accumulates in the blood vessels. It might take several years to experience the effect of narrowing of the coronary arteries owing to plaque formation. The narrowing of the arteries obstructs blood supply to the heart muscles. If the condition is left untreated for a long time, the plaque might completely obstruct blood flow to the heart muscles. In the absence of oxygenated blood, the affected tissues in the heart eventually die, thereby reducing the pumping activity of the heart, which in the worst case causes death.

| Terminalia arjuna is native to the Indian subcontinent. The deciduous tree could grow up to a height of 90 feet. For more than three hundred years, the bark of the arjuna tree is used in Ayurvedic medicine as a cardiac tonic. The white to pinkish gray colored bark of the tree contains flavonoids, tannins, gallic acid, oligomeric proanthocyanidins, triterpenoid saponins, phytosterols, ellganic acid, magnesium, calcium, copper and zinc. Experimental studies and clinical trials indicate the usefulness of the active constituents of arjuna bark in treating coronary artery disease and congestive heart failure. Intake of Terminalia arjuna bark powder is associated with improved cardiac muscle function, which eventually boosts the pumping function of the heart. Scientists speculate that phytochemicals known as saponin glycosides help to improve the contraction of the heart muscles. Oligomeric proanthocyanidins and flavonoids boost the natural antioxidant defense system of the heart and strengthen the vascular system of the body. (“Terminalia arjuna”. Altern Med Rev. 1999 Dec;4(6):436-7). Studies suggest that Terminalia arjuna might prevent atherothrombosis by inhibiting plateless aggregation in cornary artery disease patients. (Malik N, Dhawan V, Bahl A, Kaul D. “Inhibitory effects of Terminalia arjuna on platelet activation in vitro in healthy subjects and patients with coronary artery disease.” Platelets. 2009 May;20(3):183-90).

Angina or severe chest pain occurs when the heart muscle fails to receive sufficient oxygenated blood to perform its pumping function. Studies indicate that angina might be managed with Terminalia arjuna bark powder. In a small clinical trial, researchers found that the frequency and severity of the angina pain could be reduced and the onset of angina could be delayed in stable angina patients with arjuna. Echocardiography and treadmill tests of the patients suggest that daily intake of arjuna bark powder could prevent 50 percent of the angina episodes within three months. In people with mild angina, the changes in the heart muscles owing to ischemia might be reversed by taking this herb. No adverse effect of the herb on kidneys and liver functions has been observed in clinical studies. (Dwivedi S, Agarwal MP. “Antianginal and cardioprotective effects of Terminalia arjuna, an indigenous drug, in coronary artery disease.” Department of Medicine, UCMS, Delhi). The effect of arjuna bark powder on stable angina patients is comparable to isosorbide mononitrate. (Bharani A, Ganguli A, Mathur LK, Jamra Y, Raman PG. “Efficacy of Terminalia arjuna in chronic stable angina: a doubl- blind, placebo-controlled, crossover study comparing Terminalia arjuna with isosorbide mononitrate.” Indian Heart J. 2002 Mar-Apr;54(2):170-5).

Congestive heart failure occurs when the heart is unable to pump enough blood to meet the normal needs of the body. Therapy with Terminalia arjuna could improve the function of the heart muscles in congestive heart failure patients. Arjuna bark powder taken along with vasodilator and diuretics improves the symptoms of heart failure. (Bharani A, Ganguly A, Bhargava KD. “Salutary effect of Terminalia Arjuna in patients with severe refractory heart failure.” Int J Cardiol. 1995 May;49(3):191-9).

Elevated levels of low-density lipoprotein and triglycerides are linked to atherosclerosis. The lipids accumulate in the coronary blood vessels, leading to narrowing of the arteries, thereby reducing blood flow to the heart. Atherosclerosis is one of the key causes of heart attacks that claim millions of lives worldwide every year. Terminalia arjuna could prevent and arrest progression of atherosclerosis by reducing the levels of the harmful fats in the blood. Findings in animal studies showed that therapy with arjuna bark reduces the total cholesterol, LDL and triglyceride levels and increases the high-density lipoprotein (HDL) or the good cholesterol level in the blood. (Subramaniam S, Subramaniam R, Rajapandian S, Uthrapathi S, Gnanamanickam VR, Dubey GP. “Anti-Atherogenic Activity of Ethanolic Fraction of Terminalia arjuna Bark on Hypercholesterolemic Rabbits.” Evid Based Complement Alternat Med. 2011;2011:487916).

Arjuna bark powder could protect the heart from the adverse effect of chronic high blood pressure by lowering the systolic blood pressure level. The herb might help to boost cardio-vascular endurance. (SandhuJS, Shah B, Shenoy S, Chauhan S, Lavekar GS, Padhi MM. “Effects of Withania somnifera (Ashwagandha) and Terminalia arjuna (Arjuna) on physical performance and cardiorespiratory endurance in healthy young adults.” Int J Ayurveda Red. 2010 Jul;1(3):144-9). |

To prevent coronary artery disease, you should identify the factors responsible for this condition. Smoking, high blood cholesterol, high blood pressure, excess body weight, a sedentary lifestyle and high blood sugar level increase the risk of coronary artery disease.
A healthy lifestyle could reduce the risk of developing coronary artery disease. What you eat affects your blood pressure and blood cholesterol level. Eat plenty of fruits, vegetables and whole grains products. Increase the proportion of omega-3 fatty acid rich foods in your daily diet. Fish oil is one of the richest sources of this heart healthy fat. You would also find these polyunsaturated fatty acids in flaxseed, walnuts, canola oil and whole grains. Limit consumption of foods and beverages with added sugar. Add not more than 2400mg of salt to your daily diet. Reduce your daily salt intake by avoiding fast foods and processed foods. Eliminate trans fats from your diet. Trans fats present in hydrogenated vegetable oil and margarine would boost the level of harmful lipids in the blood. They are present in deep fried foods and processed foods. Limit consumption of saturated fats found in dairy products and red meat. Not more than 10 percent of your daily calorie intake should be met by saturated fats. Substitute the unhealthy fats in your diet with healthy fats such as lean meat, low fat milk and dairy, fish, olive oil and vegetable oil. Drink in moderation. Two drinks per day and one drink each day are sufficient respectively for men and women who love drinking.
Regular physical activity coupled with a healthy diet is more beneficial for your heart. By boosting the metabolism rate of the body, exercises would help you to burn the extra calories. Exercises might protect you from coronary artery diseases. However, if you are accustomed to a sedentary lifestyle, you should gradually increase the level of your physical activities. Start with low to moderate intensity workouts such as brisk walking, swimming, cycling and jogging. At least 2 ½ hours of workout, each week are needed to maintain the normal health of the heart. A typical exercise regime would comprise of ten to fifteen minutes of stretching exercises to warm up the muscles and gradually raise the heart rate. These exercises should be followed by low to medium impact aerobic exercises. You can also add strength-building workouts with weights to your fitness routine. Regular exercises might prevent atherosclerosis and angina by lowering the serum cholesterol and triglycerides, decreasing the blood pressure and by maintaining a healthy body weight.
You can cut the risk of coronary artery disease by quitting smoking. Secondhand smoking is equally bad for the heart. Stress and depression might worsen your cardiovascular malfunction. Stress and depression might be managed through mediation, workouts, deep breathing exercises, tai chi and yoga. Cognitive behavioral therapy might help you to develop a positive outlook towards life.

"Really like the product. Has helped reduce blood pressure." - Ken
“I am a cardiac patient and on some cardiac drugs. But then too, I felt incomplete. In spite of my regular strict diet and some light exercises, my heart report did not show total cholesterol and lipid control. Someone suggested me about Arjuna. I searched on the internet and finally got it. I have been taking the herb since couple of months and I am really happy with its results. Just recent reports suggest those all harmful levels of cholesterols and lipid within considerable limits as compared to before” – Satish Jain, Nashville
“I am a naturopath and know very well about Arjuna. The thing was where to get a top quality product? I searched on net and found this product. I just ordered few bottles to test and they really met my expectation. Without further delay, I ordered few more and since then, I am regularly using Arjuna for my triglycerides levels” – Dr. James Patros (Naturopath), Kingston
“I have being on Arjuna since quite a considerable period (say about 6 months) for my high lipid levels and some cardiac discomfort. I should say that it really worked for me. I am willing to continue this natural product” – Ruby NK, Miami |

1. Can I solely depend upon Arjuna? I have had 85% block in my arteries.
A - You can depend on Arjuna but not solely. The researches say that Arjuna can help in tissue penetration for various drugs including those all drugs that are given to make blood thinner and given as mild anti-coagulants. Arjuna enhances those drugs' potency and over the period of time, no wonders that your doctor may reduce those cardiac drugs.
2. I have high cholesterol, lipids and blood pressure levels. Can I take Arjuna?
A - To be frank, you are an ideal case for Arjuna. Terminalia arjuna has great effects on all cholesterols, all lipids and it also dilate the blood vessels up to certain extent and hence can also be used for hypertension. Arjuna (TA) can help lower Cholesterol as much as 64%. After only 30 days, people taking TA saw their LDL levels plummet by an average of 25.6%. The Arjuna will also prevent further damage to the heart and it will also prevent angina, which is likely to occur in your case.
3. What other herbs I can have to augment Arjuna?
A - You can go for Garlic extract capsules. It is another best lipid and cholesterol lowering agent. Garlic also scraps up the plaques those are stuck inside the walls of blood vessles lessening the chances of having any artery diseases like atherosclerosis. Another herb you can go for daily use along with Arjuna is Amla. Indian gooseberry is a natural cardiac-tonic too. |

Arjuna (TA) can help lower Cholesterol as much as 64% - After only 30 days, people taking TA saw their LDL levels plummet by an average of 25.6%. After 60 days, in animal studies lab subjects with extremely high blood fats, LDL levels dropped from 493 to 162. That's a whopping 64 percent drop. Plus, HDL cholesterol (the good stuff) actually increased. The herb contains specific constituents like triterpine glycosides such as arjunetosides I, II, III, IV, arjunine and arjunetein. The bark is rich in saponnins, natural anti-oxidants (flavonoids-arjunone, arjunolone, leteilin) gallic acid, ellagic acid, oligomeric proanthocyanidins, phytosterols, rich in minerals like calcium, magnesium,zinc and copper.
Reduces angina episodes much better than nitroglycerin - More than 6.2 million Americans suffer from angina right now and most are probably taking nitroglycerin pills for it. But over time nitroglycerin can become less effective. Big problem. So researchers decided to test the herb Arjuna against nitroglycerin. It worked better in every study. In one study, angina episodes were cut in half by the Arjuna, with none of the nasty side effects. Plus, TA can be used as long as you like, without fear it'll stop working.
It's been shown to help reverse hardening of the arteries - Here's the most shocking fact of all: Although most Western doctors still haven't heard of it, Arjuna has been used by herbal healers in India to treat heart trouble for an incredible 2,700 years. Nearly three millennia!

On the ethnomedical significance of the Arjun tree, Terminalia arjuna (Roxb.) Wight & Arnot.
Kumar DS, Prabhakar YS.
Terminalia arjuna is an important cardiotonic plant described in the Ayurveda, the ancient Indian medical science. It is also believed to have the ability to cure hepatic, urogenital, venereal and viral diseases. An attempt is made here to analyse the available drug recipes using this plant from Sanskrit literature in the light of modern scientific knowledge. The chemistry and pharmacology of T. arjuna are also discussed, and areas of future investigations are identified.
Antianginal and cardioprotective effects of Terminalia arjuna, an indigenous drug, in coronary artery disease.
Dwivedi S, Agarwal MP.
The effect of bark powder of Terminalia arjuna, an indigenous drug, on anginal frequency, blood pressure, body mass index, blood sugar, cholesterol and HDL-cholesterol was studied in 15 stable (Group A) and 5 unstable (Group B) angina patients before and 3 months after T. arjuna therapy. Tread mill test (TMT) and echocardiographic left ventricular ejection fraction was evaluated in some cases. There was 50% reduction in anginal episodes in Group A cases (P < 0.01). TMT performance improved from moderate to mild changes in 5 patients and one with mild changes became negative for ischemia. The time to the onset of angina and appearance of ST-T changes on TMT after T. arjuna was delayed significantly. However, in patients with unstable angina there was an insignificant reduction in anginal frequency. These patients also needed diltiazem, B-blockers and nitroglycerine in addition to T. arjuna. The drug lowered systolic blood pressure and body mass index to a significant level (p < 0.05) and increased HDL-cholesterol only slightly along with marginal improvement in left ventricular ejection fraction in stable angina patients. There were no deleterious effects on liver or kidney functions. Our results suggest that monotherapy with T. arjuna is fairly effective in patients with symptoms of stable angina pectoris. However, it has a limited role in unstable angina.
Biochemical contents, their variation and changes in free amino acids during seed germination in Terminalia arjuna.
Srivastava N, Prakash D, Behl HM.
The leaves, twigs, stem and bark of T. arjuna were analysed for their protein, phenol, tannin, nitrate, oxalate in addition to vitamin C, anthocyanin and chlorophyll in the leaves. The variation of some of these parameters in the leaves with season and leaf position was also studied. The time course changes in amino acids and protein during seed germination in T. arjuna, showed initial decrease in protein followed by increase at subsequent stages. The seeds contain high level of serine (21.7%) and glutamic acid (22.6%) the later decreased as the germination progressed. After 30 days seeds showed higher amounts of serine (26.0%), valine (2.8%), proline (10.6%), methionine (3.4%), histidine (5.6%) and lysine (7.4%) while threonine, glutamic acid, tyrosine and arginine were in lower amounts than that of initial stage at day 0.
