Hawthorn is reported to have strong cardiotonic, vasodilatory, and hypotensive properties. It has been used for heart failure, myocardial anemia, paroxysmal tachycardia, hypertension, and Buerger's disease. The flowers, leaves, and fruits positively contribute to the resolution of serious heart problems. They act as antioxidants, protecting the heart tissues from damage. They relax the arteries that are responsible for supplying blood to the myocardium, which improves circulation and relieves angina. They regulate heart rhythms, making its function more efficient. This action is beneficial in cases of heart failure. It helps reduce high blood pressure.

We do not use it if we are simultaneously taking medication for high blood pressure because there is a risk of lowering our pressure more than necessary. It seems strange that hawthorn can help with both hypertension and hypotension problems. This is due to the herb's action that normalizes heart function. That is, its ability to relax or stimulate the heart, depending on what is needed.

The strengthening of the contraction of the heart muscle helps with hypotension problems, while the herb's simultaneous ability to cause dilation of the coronary circulation vessels helps with hypertension problems.

How to use:

• The tea from the leaves and flowers is safe and has no toxic effects. It is prepared as an infusion (let it steep in boiling water for 20 minutes), and the daily dose is 2-4 grams.
• The fruits are prepared as a decoction (boil for 10 minutes), and the daily dose is 2-4 grams.
• For hypertension and poor circulation, it combines well with yarrow, linden, and mistletoe.
