Hawthorn Berries (Crataegus spp.) – Heart, Circulation & Blood Pressure Support Herb
Hawthorn berries have been treasured for centuries as one of nature’s most powerful heart-supporting herbs. Often called “the heart’s best friend,” hawthorn works gently yet deeply to nourish the cardiovascular system, strengthen the heart muscle, and support healthy blood pressure and circulation.
Rich in flavonoids, oligomeric procyanidins (OPCs), antioxidants, and bioactive plant compounds, hawthorn berries help relax blood vessels, improve blood flow, and protect arteries from oxidative stress. Unlike harsh stimulants, hawthorn supports the heart without overworking it, making it ideal for long-term use.
