Doctors Say Arjuna Tree Bark May Help Manage Bad Cholesterol

Arjuna bark holds a special place in Ayurveda and is traditionally considered beneficial for heart and blood vessel health. It contains antioxidants, flavonoids and glycosides that may offer some health benefits. Arjuna bark is commonly consumed as a herbal tea or decoction. However, strong medical evidence confirming that it can prevent heart disease, high cholesterol or high blood pressure is still limited.

Arjuna bark powder is generally boiled in water to prepare a decoction, while some people consume it with milk. The appropriate dosage and method of use may vary depending on an individual’s health condition. People taking medicines for heart disease or blood pressure, pregnant women and those with other medical conditions should consult a doctor before using it. Experts also caution that Arjuna bark should not be considered a substitute for prescribed medical treatment.
