Hawthorn berries are an ancient treatment for heart disease -- people have reportedly been using them since the first century. This powerful antioxidant may help improve coronary artery blood flow and function, lower LDL (bad) cholesterol and prevent atherosclerosis (hardening of the arteries). Ask your doctor if a taking Hawthorn supplement might be smart for your heart.
