\nCommonly found in Asia, Europe, and North America, hawthorn berries are small berries, growing on shrubs and trees. These berries come in a variety of colours, from yellow to deep red and sometimes even black. They have a mild sweet and tangy taste. Hawthorn berries are loaded with antioxidants, like polyphenols, which help fight against free radicals that may cause cellular damage. They have anti-inflammatory properties and aid many health conditions including high blood pressure, indigestion, anxiety, and hair fall. Hawthorn berries are used in the preparation of jams, desserts, vinegar, and wine.
