 Hawthorn,
a hardy shrub with small red berries that is
native to Europe, can today be found in gardens
and along roadways in both Europe and the United
States. During the 18th and 19th centuries,
people discovered that the leaves of this common
woodland shrub contained components that could
enhance cardiac health.
To function at its
optimum level, the heart requires large amounts
of oxygen. The demand for oxygen is so great
that the heart actually has its own separate
circulatory system to transport oxygenated blood
exclusively to cardiac tissue through the
coronary arteries.
Studies show that
hawthorn can strengthen and stabilize the heart
muscle, promoting regular heart rhythms.
Hawthorn also creates a positive isotropic
effect on the heart muscle – increasing the
force of the heart's contractions. Additionally,
studies show that hawthorn supports healthy
blood pressure by facilitating the opening of
the coronary arteries. Hawthorn's flavonoid
constituents are thought to inhibit the
oxidation of cholesterol, which keeps the
arterial walls clear and open.
