Hawthorn Berry Capsules
Part of our Capsules range, manufactured and exported by Arizone International LLP.
Hawthorn Berry Capsules are herbal supplements made from the small red berries, and often the leaves and flowers, of hawthorn trees in the Crataegus genus. In European herbal tradition, hawthorn is the classic heart herb, used for centuries to support the heart and circulation.
Arizone International manufactures and supplies Hawthorn Berry Capsules with berry powder or standardised extract, for nutraceutical brands, heart-health companies and private label businesses.
About Hawthorn
Hawthorns are thorny shrubs and small trees common in hedgerows across Europe, North America and Asia. In spring they are covered in white blossom, and in autumn in dark red berries known as haws. In the English countryside, hawthorn is also called may tree, because it flowers in May. In China, a related species is used to make haw flakes and tanghulu, sweet snacks made from the fruit.
In the late nineteenth century, an Irish doctor became famous for treating heart patients with a secret remedy that was later revealed to be hawthorn tincture. Since then, hawthorn has been studied widely, especially in Germany.
What Hawthorn Contains
- Oligomeric Procyanidins (OPCs)A key marker in hawthorn extracts, especially from berries.
- FlavonoidsSuch as vitexin-2''-rhamnoside and hyperoside, more concentrated in the leaves and flowers.
- Triterpenic AcidsIncluding ursolic and oleanolic acid.
- Phenolic AcidsSuch as chlorogenic acid.
Applications
European herbal monographs recognise hawthorn leaf and flower for mild heart-related complaints, and studies have looked at it for circulation and blood pressure. Hawthorn Berry Capsules are used in:
- Heart and circulation wellness supplements
- Healthy blood pressure support blends
- Formulas with garlic, arjuna, CoQ10 or omega-3
- Antioxidant supplements
- Private label natural heart-health ranges
Hawthorn supplements should support, not replace, medical care for heart conditions.
Formulation Options
We can fill capsules with dried hawthorn berry powder, or with extracts standardised to OPCs (commonly 10% to 20%) or to total flavonoids (often 1.8% to 5% vitexin). Leaf-and-flower extracts and berry extracts can also be combined. Typical fills are 250 mg to 550 mg per capsule.
Safety Notes
Hawthorn may add to the effect of heart medicines such as digoxin, beta-blockers, nitrates and blood pressure drugs. Anyone on heart medication must consult their doctor before using hawthorn. It is not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding.
Quality Considerations
- Crataegus species and plant part (berry, leaf, flower)
- OPC or flavonoid content by stated method
- Moisture, heavy metals and pesticides
- Microbiological quality
- Batch consistency and Certificate of Analysis
Hawthorn berries are naturally tart and slightly sweet. Because the extract is fine and free-flowing, it encapsulates well and blends easily with minerals such as magnesium and potassium in heart-focused formulas.
Tips for Buyers and Formulators
Choose an extract standardised to flavonoids or oligomeric procyanidins (OPCs) for heart wellness products. People taking heart medicines should consult their doctor.
