Gaia Herbal Liquid Phyto-Caps

Hawthorn Supreme Liquid Phyto-Caps
60 Liquid-filled Capsules • 100% Vegetarian $19.99

Ultimate Support of Cardiovascular Function
A combination of the Hawthorn berry with its flower and/or leaves has traditionally been used in Europe as a highly regarded heart tonic. Its specific application includes heart weakness, particularly where nervous exhaustion is present.

This highly nutritive plant, nourishes the entire cardiovascular system promoting connective and cardiovascular tissue integrity. Due to the absence of plant bioflavonoids, from foods in the American diet, simple plant compounds, such as these, will prove to become increasingly effective with many of today's chronic degenerative disorders. This compound contains two groups of active flavonoids that exert their actions upon the cardiovascular system.

One group of flavonoids has been shown to enhance rhythmical activity (Positive inotropic) of the heart while the other group has been shown to reinforce the collagen tissue of the cardiovascular system.
