Use these organic hawthorn berries from Northern Europe in a traditional herbal routine focused on cardiovascular care. Hawthorn is widely used to support the cardiovascular system and may help bring down high blood pressure, assist adrenal function, and support recovery after a heart attack. It is also used for hot flushes during menopause and to stimulate red blood cells.
This 50g pack can also be prepared as a facial lotion for acne. Soak 1/2 cup of dried berries overnight in 2 cups of water. Heat and simmer for 10 minutes, then cool and strain. Refrigerate or freeze the liquid in small batches. Apply it twice daily with cotton wool.
