Hawthorn Tincture - Crataegus oxyacantha Tincture

Single herbal tincture made with dried leaves & flowers of Crataegus (Hawthorn).

The hawthorn (Crataegus) is a natural source of beneficial substances. The flowers, leaves and to a lesser extent the berries of the hawthorn contain a rich variety of components, including flavonoids, procyanidins, vitamin C, tannins, glycosides and antioxidants. These substances have beneficial effects on the heart and contribute to a healthy lifestyle. Hawthorn is known for its calming properties and supports natural, deep sleep.

The hawthorn, a thorny shrub that eventually grows into a tree, thrives natively in large parts of Europe. During spring it adorns itself with beautiful white flowers, while in autumn it produces spherical or egg-shaped (dark) red berries, which have a slightly mealy taste and are therefore also known as "meal berries".

Mainly the leaves and flowering tops of the hawthorn are used, because these contain the highest concentration of active ingredients. In addition to the aforementioned flavonoids, procyanidins, vitamin C and antioxidants, hawthorn also supports a healthy heart and contributes to a good night's sleep.

With its beneficial effects on the heart and blood vessels, its calming effect and its antioxidant properties, hawthorn has the potential to be a valuable addition to a healthy lifestyle.
