Historical Notes:
Hawthorn has traditionally been used in Europe for kidney and bladder stones and as a diuretic. Herbal texts from the 16th and 18th centuries, by Gerard, Culpeper, and K’Eogh, mention all these uses. Modern use of hawthorn for circulatory and heart problems stems from an Irish doctor who began successfully using it for these conditions in his patients toward the end of the 19th century.
