Hawthorn Leaf Extract
Description
Hawthorn leaf extract is derived from the leaves of Crataegus pinnatifida or Crataegus monogyna, plants traditionally used in European and Chinese medicine for cardiovascular support. It is rich in flavonoids and oligomeric procyanidins (OPCs), which contribute to its strong antioxidant and vasodilatory properties. The extract is known to improve blood flow, strengthen heart function, and reduce blood pressure. It is widely used in natural remedies for heart-related conditions and circulatory health.
