Hawthorn flowers and leaves Dried Herb

Crataegus oxycanthoides

Hawthorn is a prime remedy for the heart and circulation. It helps to normalise and lower blood pressure and can help in palpitations, angina, atherosclerosis (narrowing/hardening of the arteries), and varicose veins. Treatment is long-term. Suitable for children.

Probably best avoided when taking digoxin. Angina and heart problems are best treated by a qualified herbalist in conjunction with your GP. High blood pressure should always be monitored by a healthcare professional.
