Cretaegus Species
Cretaegus species
The berries, leaves, and flowers are a remedy for the energetic and physical heart. With berries rich in flavonoids, this sweetly sour food and medicine can be helpfully incorporated into daily use as a strengthener to the cardiovascular system and for encouraging healthy digestion. There is a protective essence that hawthorn brings to our emotional heart centers as a medicine, just like the thorns that adorn its limbs protect the trunk.
