T. arjuna exerts beneficial effect on LV functions, myocardial remodeling, and autonomic control in chronic heart failure possibly through maintaining endogenous antioxidant enzyme activities, inhibiting lipid peroxidation and cytokine levels. After 8 weeks of STZ administration, rats showed a decline in left ventricular pressure (LVP), maximal rate of rise and fall in LVP (LV [dP/dt] max and LV [dP/dt] min), cardiac contractility index (LV [dP/dt] max/LVP), and a rise in LV end-diastolic pressure. Pregnant and breastfeeding women should avoid it as there are not enough studies available to document its safety in this group.

For maximum benefits in case of heart problems, Arjuna chaal boiled in milk should be taken 1-2 times a day.

Improves digestion: Arjun chaal can help improve digestion by increasing the secretion of digestive enzymes and aiding in nutrient absorption.

arjuna contains large amount of various minerals and trace elements such as magnesium (4000 μg/g), calcium (3133 μg/g), zinc (119 μg/g) and copper (19 μg/g). Tannins are known to enhance the synthesis of nitric oxide and relax vascular segments pre-contracted with norepinephrine. Chunekar ji in the commentary of Bhavaprakasha Nighantu states that some Physicians in India consider L. R. DNA damage protecting and free radical scavenging properties of Terminalia arjuna bark in PC-12 cells and plasmid DNA. Isolation of triterpenoidglycoside from bark of Terminalia arjuna using chromatographic technique and investigation of pharmacological behavior upon muscle tissues.

The parameters of studied were included chromosomal aberrations (CA), sister chromatid exchanges (SCEs) and cell growth kinetics (RI) both in the presence and in the absence of exogenous metabolic activation system for in vitro experiment, whereas total aberrant cells and the total frequencies of aberrations were taken for in vivo study. o) showed significant reduction in both polychromatic erythrocytes and normochromatic erythrocytes and also shown significant reduction in P/N ratio.
