Keeps my heart ticking properly …
I've got atrial fibrillation (up until a few months ago, I had atrial flutter - for more than 12 years) -- and the standard beta-blockers (inderal, etc.) and calcium-channel blockers caused too many unbearable side effects (mainly a low-to-mid level depression and insomnia - sleeping 2-3 hours per DAY). I told my cardiologist that enough was enough of that stuff - I was driving a tractor-trailer long-haul on the West Coast - and the depression and insomnia were killing me. I heard about an excellent Naturopath in town (Vancouver, WA at that time), and I went to see her. She treated the depression with some homeopathic remedy (carcinosin) and came up with a tincture based upon Hawthorn -- which had been used in Europe for centuries for heart issues, including arrhythmias. It worked … and, when I moved away several years later, she gave me the 'recipe' for the tincture so that I could make it myself. Herb Pharm Hawthorn Blend Extract is what I use - among other herbal extracts from the Herb Pharm - and I've been using it successfully for all of these years. The great part is that my cardiologist tells me to keep on using it - that it's been working all these 12 or so years just wonderfully. Highly recommended â€
