Vitacost Standardized Hawthorn Extract -- 1000 mg per serving - 120 Capsules 4.5 5 9 27

Excellent Product that delivers real benefit As with all the VC brand products this delivers quality and value. I take this every day and it is one of my "indispensable" herbs. It helps me breathe easier. I notice when I don't take it I seem to be always gasping for more air. Read somewhere that hawthorne delivers more oxygen to the heart, don't know if this claim is true, but it has definitely helped my breathing issue. August 23, 2012

Higher dose, more for the money I like these in VC brand - they are a higher dose than I was getting and more come in a bottle for less. July 25, 2012

Contains stearic acid, magnesium stearate, & silicon dioxide. Find a product without them. November 8, 2011

"per Serving" trick Notice the "per Serving" amount:: The back says "2 capsules per serving." So it is really 500 mg per capsule. I consider that trick to get you to think it is a higher amount "per pill", knowing that most people don't pay attention to the back label. But that is NSI who is doing that, not Vitacost. Vitacost is great. April 20, 2011

Best value for the price and very high quality supplement. August 7, 2010

Warnings

Due to the narrow safety index of prescription cardiac medications, such as dioxin, it makes sense for people taking these drugs for congestive heart failure to consult with their doctor before using hawthorn-containing products. Reports of hawthorn interacting with digitalis to enhance its effects have not been confirmed.

Pregnant or lactating women, diabetics, hypoglycemics, and people with known medical conditions and/or taking drugs should consult with a licensed physician and/or pharmacist prior to taking dietary supplements.
