Herb functions:
Ayurveda texts and modern research back the following facts:
- Lowers blood lipid levels by modulating key enzymes in the liver responsible for cholesterol biosynthesis.
- Helps prevent the hardening of blood vessels by reducing lipid accumulation in the arteries.
- Potent antioxidant properties eliminate free radicals that trigger imbalance in the normal ability of blood vessels to constrict and dilate, promoting normal artery vasodilation.
- Prevents platelet aggregation and formation of thrombus (blood clot) which impairs normal blood flow in the arteries.
