Hawthorn (Crataegus laevigata)

The common hawthorn, or hawthorn or Crataegus oxyacantha, is a shrubby or tree-like plant in the rose family that is widely distributed throughout Europe and North America. It is characterised by its deep green leaves and beautiful white flowers that bloom from May to July. Hawthorn is also known for its sharp thorns and small red berries, which are especially common in the winter months. It grows in sunny to shady places and can be found, for example, at the edges of woods, in bushes and as part of hedges.

Hawthorn products have considerable potential in the medicinal and pharmaceutical industries. For example, its fruits are a rich source of vitamins and minerals and are therefore used to make various jams, marmalades, juices and wine liqueurs. In the pharmaceutical industry, hawthorn is used for its beneficial effects on the heart and vascular system. It contains substances that have the ability to normalise blood pressure, strengthen the heart muscle and improve blood circulation. It is also used in the treatment of arrhythmia and angina. There are a number of preparations on the market that contain hawthorn extract, whether they are drops, capsules or teas. But remember that despite its positive effects, some hawthorn products may have undesirable side effects, so it is important to follow the recommended dosage and consult your doctor or pharmacist before taking any medicine.
