* [[Ulcers]] : A study published in the August 2007 issue of Phytotherapy Research reported that a methanol extract of the bark of Terminalia arjuna show marked anti-ulcer and ulcer healing activity against induced ulcers in laboratory animals. The results indicated that the protective effect of the extract is related to its ability to maintain healthy membrane tissue in the digestive tract as well as strengthening the mucosal barrier, which is the first line of defense against ulcers.
*Wound Healing : Researchers at India's CU Shah College of Pharmacy studied the effects of a 50 percent ethanolic extract from the arjuna bark and also tannins isolated from the bark for their ability to heal wounds. The findings revealed a statistically significant increase in the tensile strength of the incision wounds and shrinking of the wound size compared to a control, although the topical treatment with tannins was found to be better than the extract. The tannins caused rapid collagen turnover, leading to rapid healing of the wounds.
