The hawthorn tree…more than just a shade tree that
grows in the northern hemisphere. The hawthorn tree’s medicinal reputation
is spreading! Just as its shade is welcome when it’s hot, the antimicrobial, antibacterial, and antioxidant
properties of hawthorn extract are welcome to diminish
bacteria, oxidation effects and more. Already recorded
to have promising benefits for cardiovascular health and
treatment of cardiovascular disorders due to its flavonoid content,
the hawthorn tree’s flavonoid content determined it to be
valuable for more issues including spinal cord injury
and staph infection. (1,2) Back And Neck Care Center creates
Severna Park chiropractic treatment plans with incorporated

FLAVONOIDS IN HAWTHORN LEAVES’ EXTRACT
Hawthorn leaves’ antioxidant and antimicrobial attributes
are growing its reputation as a well-known herbal
medicine plant. Hawthorn’s total phenols, total flavonoid content, and
antioxidant activity tested well in a new study, especially
for hyperoside, chlorogenic acid, and isoquercetin in hawthorn fruits. (2) Methanol
and ethanol extracts of hawthorn showed high levels of total
flavonoids and polyphenols. The methanol extract of hawthorn showed
the strongest antibacterial level against bacteria, especially
stapholococcus aureus (SA). It damaged the cell wall and membrane
of SA and stopped its enzyme activity, increased
reactive oxygen species, transformed gene expression, and
provoked SA cell death. (3) Hawthorn’s methanol extract is powerful!
FLAVONOIDS IN CARE OF SPINAL CORD INJURY
Research set to
be published in 2021 presents the powerful therapeutic
benefits of hawthorn leaves’ flavonoids for spine cord injury. Hawthorn leaves
were tested and discovered to have plenty of total flavonoid species and content. Research described
that this type of plenty of
flavonoids can lessen apoptosis (cell death) and utlilize
neuroprotective effects to promote motor function in
rats with spinal cord injury. (4) An interesting step toward potential human benefit and Severna Park
