After being put on Toprol by a cardiologist, I started researching a natural alternative for treating heart palpitations and occasional racing heart. My blood pressure has always been normal; the problem with Toprol is that it is also used to lower blood pressure. I did not like the feeling of lightheadedness and no energy caused by the Toprol. Hawthorn extract has been used for years to help with heart issues. Even though it is also used for high blood pressure, it helps to regulate heart rate without causing the same problems with normal blood pressure that Toprol does. I have had very good results with Hawthorn - less palpitations, less racing heart rate, and more energy. I love Now brand products and have changed all our vitamins to this brand. They are a very good product with less fillers than other vitamins.
Do your own research for why and how much to use hawthorn powder, and if its use is indicated, this specific product has done the job for both I and my wife.
5つ星のうち4.0CAUTION: do not use if you have hypoglycemia or naturally low-normal blood pressure

I give this supplement 4 stars because it indeed works as advertised for lowering blood pressure and possibly controlling insulin response/sensitivity. However, it's effects are quite strong - stronger than what is casually discussed in any resource I could find describing it's effects on both insulin and blood pressure. Taking just one capsule with a meal sent me into a hypoglycemic tumble along with reduced heart rate to the point that I almost went to the ER. My blood pressure is usually in the low-normal range and I am hypoglycemic, but I did not realize that this particular herb would have such a pronounced double whammy effect on me. So, minus one star for the lack of warning not just on the bottle (though it does have a very vague "caution" if you have pre-existing blood pressure issues or currently take Rx meds for it) but for the lack of warning regarding potentially serious contraindications for hypoglycemia as well.
I bought these to help with my fast heart rate and palpitations. To my surprise, it also takes care of my headaches. When the barometric pressure drops, I have a pounding headache until it rises again, until now. I take Hawthorn four times a day now and feel so much better! I’m on auto ship now so I don’t run out.
