Hawthorn (Crataegus oxyacantha)

Hawthorn is a thorny shrub of the Rosaceae family, common in country hedgerows. In spring it is covered in small white flowers.

On this page you'll find all Naturalma products made with hawthorn leaves and flowers and with fresh young hawthorn shoots:

• Alcohol-free mother tincture: hawthorn leaves and flowers (10%) in vegetable glycerine and water, obtained with Extranatur, Naturalma's patented extraction method. The label dose is 40 drops (2 ml) in a glass of water, one to three times a day; 2 ml contain 200 mg of hawthorn. 60, 120, 200 and 500 ml bottles.

Good to know before use. The tablets and the alcoholic hawthorn mother tincture are for adult use only and should not be used during pregnancy or breastfeeding. The alcohol-free tincture should not be used during pregnancy or breastfeeding, or by children under 12. The bud extract carries no specific warnings beyond those common to all food supplements. You'll find the full warnings on each product page.

Tinctures, tablets and bud extract are food supplements. Naturalma mother tinctures are made to our own recipe by specialist laboratories, always starting from the dried plant; the bud extract is made from fresh young shoots.
