Description

Arjuna Organic is a food supplement in capsules by Planet Ayurveda®, containing standardized extract of Terminalia arjuna bark. In the Ayurvedic tradition, Arjuna is one of the best-known plants in the direction of heart, circulation, inner resilience and a balanced daily rhythm.

In Ayurveda, Arjuna is traditionally associated with daily heart and circulation well-being, emotional stability, inner body support and the balance of Pitta and Kapha. It is a bark extract with an astringent and at the same time deeply tonifying character, traditionally chosen by people who want to complement their daily diet with a classic Ayurvedic plant for the cardiovascular direction.

In modern wellness and Ayurvedic product descriptions, Arjuna is often associated with the heart, circulation, inner resilience and a balanced lifestyle. In the Ayurvedic tradition, Terminalia arjuna bark is highly valued as one of the classic plants chosen by people who pay attention to everyday heart and circulation well-being.

From the modern composition point of view, Terminalia arjuna bark extract is interesting for its spectrum of natural plant compounds — tannins, polyphenols, flavonoids, triterpenoid compounds and other phenolic components. In the label of this specific Arjuna Organic product, the main stated active composition marker is tannins: the daily dose, meaning 4 capsules, contains 500 mg of tannins.

The advantage of Arjuna Organic is the Planet Ayurveda® approach: using not a simple bark powder, but a standardized Terminalia arjuna bark extract. This makes it easier to understand the composition, daily dose and concentration of active plant components.
