FAQ

What Are the Health Benefits of Hawthorn?
Hawthorn has been used traditionally for centuries to support cardiovascular wellness. Today, hawthorn extracts are commonly used to support heart health, healthy circulation, and overall vascular function. Much of the scientific interest in hawthorn centers on its naturally occurring flavonoids and oligomeric procyanidins (OPCs).
What Are Oligomeric Procyanidins (OPCs)?
Oligomeric procyanidins, or OPCs, are naturally occurring polyphenol compounds found in hawthorn berries and other plant foods. They are valued for their antioxidant activity and are considered among the primary bioactive constituents of hawthorn extracts.
How Does Hawthorn Support Cardiovascular Wellness?
Research suggests that hawthorn's flavonoids and OPCs interact with pathways involved in vascular function, blood flow, and cellular antioxidant activity. These mechanisms have made hawthorn a subject of scientific interest for supporting healthy circulation, vascular wellness, and overall cardiovascular function.
What Makes Swanson Hawthorn Extract Standardized Different From Other Hawthorn Supplements?
Swanson Hawthorn Extract Standardized combines two forms of hawthorn in a single formula: 250 mg of whole hawthorn berry and 250 mg of a concentrated hawthorn extract standardized to provide 1.8% vitexin-2-rhamnoside and hyperosides, two of hawthorn's characteristic flavonoids. This dual approach delivers both the naturally occurring compounds found in the whole berry and the consistent potency of a standardized extract, providing a broader hawthorn profile in every serving.
Is Swanson Hawthorn Extract Standardized Suitable for Special Diets?
Swanson Hawthorn Extract Standardized is non-GMO and dairy free. However, it is not suitable for vegan or vegetarian diets because the capsules contain gelatin, and it is not gluten free.
