Hawthorn Phytosome™ 

Supplies important flavonoids for healthy cardiovascular function.

Size: 60 UltraCaps

A recent major medical review of 14 placebo controlled studies, with over 1,000 patients, found hawthorn to be helpful in treating the symptoms of heart failure.

In the review, hawthorn extract, an herbal which is often used for heart health, was shown to significantly decrease symptoms and improve exercise performance in chronic heart failure—without significant side effects. "The best evidence that is available suggests that hawthorn has significant benefits, compared with placebo… for patients with chronic heart failure," according to the authors, led by Dr. Max H. Pittler of the Peninsula Medical School in the UK. 

The data showed that hawthorn extract has improved the strength of heart muscle contraction, while improving blood flow to the heart muscle. This makes hawthorne a useful addition to other natural and prescription therapies for the treatment of congestive heart failure. In addition, although the research focused on heart failure (which causes shortness of breath on exertion, swollen ankles, and shortness of breath on laying flat), the data suggests it may also be helpful for angina.
