NOW Hawthorn Berry 

Traditionally used in Herbal Medicine to help maintain and/or support cardiovascular health in adults. Hawthorn Berries have a long history of traditional use in Europe and North America as an herbal tonic. Modern scientific studies have identified a number of bioactive constituents, including OPCs (Oligomeric Procyanidins). Many of these compounds have been found to possess powerful free radical scavenging activity and help support cardiovascular health and fight heart disease, one of Canada’s top leading reasons for death.

Hawthorne has been used since the 1st Century for heart health. Active ingredients such as flavonoids, OPC’s, chlorogenic acid, and quercetin to name a few, provide cardio-protection in heart tissue and blood vessels through out the body. Research has pointed to Hawthorne treating symptoms of Congestive Heart Failure (CHF) helping to increase maximal workload in exercise, normalize blood pressure, heart rate, and reduce fatigue level. Hawthorne has also played a role inpreventing and treating angina, and treating atherosclerosis. NOW uses the whole herb powder of the Hawthorne Berry to provide all the important constituents that can promote heart health.
