    I used to take hawthorne for my BP before getting prescribed beta blockers. Any "natural" supplement that helps bring down high BP must be taken in extreme amounts to be effective whether its garlic, hawthorne, omega-3 fish oil etc. That's what the doctor said anyway.

    Btw the extract I took was called Natures-Way-HeartCare-Hawthorn-Extract. I felt I got the most bang for my buck with it

    Garlic is good for high blood pressure. I take a clove every after meals.

    i used the hawthorn to see if it helped.bottom number was 83.but the top was a little higher.nurse said it could be from taking it in the other arm.but any way i can work with that.

    I used to do that. I'd wash it down with orange juice so it wasn't harsh but you still sweat it out and stink as a result. After some research I learned that the compound Allicin, which is what stinks in garlic, mainly helps the immune system. Some companies sell the garlic extracted without the Allicin such as the "kyolic" brand.
