Hawthorn Extract Full Spectrum and Standardized
Supports a Healthy Cardiovascular System

Hawthorn is the primary herb used by herbalists in America and Europe to support a healthy heart. The leaves, berries and flowers are rich in flavonoids and proanthocyanidins, renowned for their ability to support the normal activity and integrity of the heart. Planetary Formulas Full Spectrum Hawthorn Extract combines a concentrated extract of hawthorn leaves and flowers, standardized to 2% vitexin, with whole berries. This ensures that all important compounds of hawthorn are captured, for a broad range of hawthorn activity.

Hawthorn - Botanical Support for the Heart
Hawthorn (Crataegus spp.) is a small thorny tree with white flowers and red berries. Hawthorn originated on the hillsides and sunny slopes of England, Europe, and North America.Hawthorn has been the subject of botanical writings since as early as the first century A.D. Herbalists traditionally used all parts of the hawthorn plant, which has been regarded as the most important cardiac tonic in both Chinese and Western herbalism. A syrup of hawthorn berries was reportedly used as a heart tonic by the private physician of King Henry IV of France.

Research Validates Traditional Beliefs
Today modern research is confirming traditional beliefs about hawthorn. Hawthorn has been shown in animal studies to positively influence the contraction of heart muscle. More significantly, 14 clinical studies on humans have shown positive results for cardiovascular health. Hawthorn's bioflavonoids have documented antioxidant activity, which is vital for protecting the heart from the ravages of free radicals.

Planetary Formulas offers three scientifically advanced and clinically derived hawthorn products: HAWTHORN HEART, FULL SPECTRUM HAWTHORN EXTRACT tablets, and FULL SPECTRUM HAWTHORN LIQUID EXTRACT.
