Why

Hawthorn (Crataegus species) berries — also known as haws — have been used since the 19th century as a traditional cardiovascular tonic herb. The deep red berries are among the most antioxidant-rich fruits in the plant kingdom, loaded with a broad spectrum of protective phytonutrients. Oligomeric proanthocyanidins (OPCs) are powerful antioxidant flavonoids that strengthen and protect blood vessel walls, reduce capillary fragility, and support vascular integrity. Anthocyanins — the pigments responsible for the deep red colour — provide potent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory protection for cardiovascular tissue. Vitexin and other flavone glycosides are the primary bioactive compounds associated with hawthorn’s venotonic and vasodilatory effects, supporting healthy blood flow and cardiac muscle tone. Dietary fibre supports digestive health and healthy cholesterol levels. Whole hawthorn berries offer the complete phytonutrient matrix of the fruit — a valuable complement to or alternative for hawthorn capsule supplements, particularly for those who prefer whole-food herbal preparations. Frontier Co-op has been a trusted source of quality botanicals since 1976.
