Hawthorn Standardized Extract - 90 - Capsule

What can I say other than it works. My husband and I have been taking this for the blood pressure lowering benefits and we both have better blood pressures than we have in years. I take one a day and he's been taking two. I've had borderline hypertension to hypertension depending on the day but doctor choose not to put me on meds. My husband has been on prescription meds for years and was tired of the side effects (specifically an on going never ending dry cough). He quit taking his prescription and switched to herbs. His most recent read the lady did a double take and tested again because it was so good. She asked him if he was taking prescription and he shared what he is taking and she wanted to write it down for herself too. (I wrote this about 2 or three weeks ago) Wanted to add at another appointment.. a Physical through work my husband was questioned by the nurse he told her he has lost 15# (through diet and exercise) an was using Hawthorn to control his blood pressure. This Nurse gave him the stink eye and asked him " Does your doctor know this?" Needless to say we both still have good blood pressure taking this herb and it's natural effective and way cheaper.

I take a second product called Cardio~Juvenate+. That lowered my BP big time but there was still some fluctuation. I took this for three months. I think had I taken it longer it would have made a difference but I prefer a pill. It was easier for me. Stopped and tried Hawthorn alone. However the Cardio Juvenate did get me off my meds. It is another great product. My husband prefers this product. It is a powder he adds to his water and takes to work. He HATES pills. It has taken him from Two blood pressure medications to none so, yeah, it works. It does need some stevia in my opinion.I took Hawthorn for three months and it also lowered my blood pressure.(or kept it lower and off meds) I take one pill three times a day. I think this is very powerful and really works. My original PB was 175/110. After three months of Hawthorn my bp ran 140/70. I have been taking this Hawthorn now about nine months and my bp runs pretty consist 130/70. I'm good with that!!

I believe Hawthorne supplements have been instrumental in my BP regimen. I use several Supplements, but when I added hawthorns it seems to have been the key. I have bought expensive ones and less expensive... Have not noticed a great difference between them. So this was good price

I have been taking this product for a few months and it works really well. I had tried another product, but my BP started to rise again. I am now back on Nature's Way - Standardized Extract and after a week my BP is returning to where it was before I stopped taking this product. Quality of a supplement does matter. Foolishly I thought I would save some money, but it wasn't worth the savings.I know this can be a dangerous alternative to taking prescription drugs, but I had discussed this with my MD and she gave me a green light to try it. I don't think she believed it would help and frankly...I don't think she gave a hoot one way or another, but seeing is believing and when I came back for a check up she was embarrassed to admit that it did make a difference without taking the script she prescribed that nearly landed me in the hospital from the reaction.I would advise to discuss this with your doctor before embarking on this particular adventure. Any time you try a supplement you always need to make sure it is safe for you.

Less than the work the manufacturer claims it does.

I've been taking this product for over a year, with my doctor's blessing, to help maintain a healthy blood pressure after some initial high readings. I ran out a month or so ago and waited to see if there was a difference in my readings when I didn't take any. I experienced a marked increase in my blood pressure. I'm back on Nature's Way hawthorn again and looking forward to the benefits I clearly get from it.According to the Medscape reference app from WebMD, a double-blind study confirms increased coronary circulation, and states specifically that taking hawthorn extract is comparable to the ACE inhibitor captopril. That's pretty darn amazing in my opinion. There are some drug interactions and possible adverse effects (though I've not experienced any). There is one caution listed in the reference for: concurrent cardiovascular meds, vasodilatory agents, or CNS depressants. As I mentioned, I consulted with my doctor about taking hawthorn, and would recommend anyone having a health issue to do the same.In addition, be sure to check the drug interaction list if you are taking any other prescription meds. There are a number of interactions in the "significant - monitor closely" category. Don't count on your doctor to know this information. They have way too much to keep track of to know this information and precious little time to check on it for you.

This product has an EXTREME diuretic effect. Far more so than an ethanol extract would. I would say that unless you are taking this for its diuretic effects, get yourself some high-quality hawthorn tincture from a local herbal medicine producer, and forget the standardized extract (full spectrum is better).

The great Dr. Blaylock recommended Hawthorn as a very effective antidote to hypertension, and indeed it is. Mine has gone from 140/70 to 115/60in one month using this stuff. That's huge - from borderline dangerous, to quite safe and healthy.Get some! It's cheap and it's easy to take - two a day with food.Plus, it has eliminated a heart arrhythmia that had been nagging me in recent years. I had read in various places that Hawthorn berries and flowerscould accomplish this, and indeed it has. A remarkable and most welcome added attraction.There are a great many supplements out on the market today re blood pressure reduction. I have tried a few, but none of them was nearly as effective as this Nature's Way Hawthorne.
