(Health-NewsWire.Net, July 13, 2015 ) Beaverton, Oregon -- For centuries hawthorn berries (Crataegus mongyna or Crataegus laevigata) have been used in a wide range of traditional medicinal treatments. These berries are particularly popular in remedies for problems associated with the cardiovascular system. Full of antioxidants, these little brown berries can help to boost the immune system and support overall health and vitality. There has been a lot of interest in these berries recently as new studies confirm that they may help to treat blood pressure and circulatory disorders. Master herbalist Dr. John Christopher and renowned physician and television presenter Dr. Oz are now endorsing the use of hawthorn berries in modern medicine.
Dr. Oz is well known for supporting natural alternatives to pharmaceutical medications and supports the use of hawthorn berries not only for a healthy cardiovascular system, but also for weight loss: "Holistic medical experts have long recommended hawthorn berry to get rid of excess water weight. Hawthorn berry also contains antioxidant flavonoides that support healthy blood flow and blood pressure."
New research conducted by the University of Maryland has found that the antioxidants within hawthorn berries can help to remedy a wide range of health problems including cardiac, circulatory, and respiratory conditions. Full of flavonoids, some of these important compounds include quercitin and oligomeric procyanidins (OPCs). These act as antioxidants to counteract the damage done by free radicals. Research reveals that hawthorn berries can help to combat angina, heart diseases, heart palpitations, high cholesterol, and elevated blood pressure.
The highly respected herbalist Dr. John Ray Christopher personally uses hawthorn berries, claiming that they are a "great heart food or tonic". According to Dr. Christopher, most circulatory and heart conditions develop as a result of poor diet. He argues that maintaining a healthy diet is important for the long term health of the circulatory and cardiac systems, although hawthorn berries can help to remedy immediate issues such as shortness of breath, heart palpitations, and high blood pressure.
People can get the benefits of hawthorn berries in a variety of ways. Some people make tea from the flowers, berries, and leaves. However, the bitter taste can be unappealing. Hawthorn berry extracts are also available in liquid form, which can be added to juices and other drinks to try and disguise the bitter flavor. Capsules are probably the best way to get the health benefits of hawthorn berries.
Mixed with other important natural ingredients, such as juniper berries, green tea, hibiscus flowers, and olive leaf can be beneficial.
