What do scientific studies say about hawthorn?
▶ Natural support for heart function
Hawthorn is traditionally used as a plant supporting healthy heart function. Clinical observations, such as Pittler et al. (2003), suggest that hawthorn extract may contribute to maintaining normal heart function in adults, especially with long-term use.
▶ Antioxidant activity
Hawthorn extracts contain flavonoids and oligomeric procyanidins, which according to some studies exhibit antioxidant effects. Studies like Bahorun et al. (2003) describe the ability of these substances to neutralize free radicals associated with oxidative stress.
▶ Circulatory system and vascular comfort
Hawthorn is associated in traditional phytotherapy with supporting a healthy circulatory system. Research, such as Walker et al. (2002), suggests that hawthorn extracts may influence peripheral circulation and vascular elasticity.
▶ Liver health support
A systematic review of randomized controlled trials suggests that hawthorn may contribute to improving liver function, especially in individuals with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Studies report a positive effect on liver enzyme levels, such as ALT and AST, which may indicate liver health support. More information can be found in the review study: Lipids in Health and Disease (2023).
