Analysis

Solaray Hawthorn 525 mg (marketed as 1050mg for a 2-capsule serving) utilizes whole Hawthorn berry powder. While this provides the full spectrum of compounds naturally found in the plant, it lacks standardization for specific active compounds like vitexin, meaning less consistent potency for targeted cardiovascular effects compared to extracts. It offers a decent dose of whole herb Hawthorn, but the price per serving for a non-standardized form is moderate.

Pros
  • Delivers a substantial amount (1050mg per serving) of whole Hawthorn berry powder.
  • From a well-established and trusted brand (Solaray).
  • VegCapsule form is suitable for vegetarians and vegans.
Cons
  • Uses unstandardized whole berry powder, which is generally less potent and consistent than standardized extracts for specific therapeutic outcomes.
  • The '1050mg' quantity refers to a two-capsule serving, which might require clarifying for some consumers.
  • Price per serving is on the higher side for an unstandardized berry product, limiting its value compared to cheaper alternatives.
Warnings
  • For individuals seeking specific or more pronounced therapeutic effects for heart conditions, a standardized extract might be more effective.
  • Consult a healthcare professional if currently on heart medications or blood pressure medications.

Goals
Cardiovascular Support 78.0
Hawthorn, even in berry form, along with grape seed extract, contributes to cardiovascular wellness by supporting healthy blood flow, maintaining vascular integrity, and providing antioxidant benefits, making it a good general circulatory aid.
Heart Health 75.0
While Hawthorn berry or powder provides general heart support with its broad spectrum of compounds, the unstandardized form may offer less potent and consistent effects for specific therapeutic needs compared to extracts.
Anti-Aging 55.0
While maintaining overall health contributes to anti-aging, this product does not contain specific high-potency antioxidant or cellular repair ingredients strongly associated with direct anti-aging benefits.
