As one of the most well-known medicinal plant, whitethorn or hawthorn has proven itself over the centuries to be that one, which exerts a very favourable, fortifying influence on heart and circulation. What physicians and naturalists already knew 400 and more years ago, is today secured insight. In all parts of the plant, in blooms, leaves and above all in the fruits active substances were detected, which support especially the blood circulation and the old heart. Besides the Crataegus-acids (acidly reacting connections out of the hawthorn), which stimulate the heart circulation, intensify the flavons (vegetable active substances with a succinct yellow colouring) the activity of the cardiac muscle.
