Terminalia arjuna is a large deciduous tree native to India whose inner bark has been central to Ayurvedic cardiology for millennia, traditionally strengthening heart muscle and stabilizing cardiovascular function. Its high content of arjunolic acid and cardioprotective tannins distinguishes it as a premier Ayurvedic cardiac tonic, particularly valued for supporting healthy blood pressure and myocardial integrity.
