• Cockspur hawthorn, like other Crataegus species, has been traditionally used in European herbal medicine to support immune function. A decoction of the fruit may help bolster the body's defenses during seasonal changes.

  Crataegus species contain flavonoids and oligomeric procyanidins which have antioxidant properties that can enhance immune response by protecting cells from oxidative stress.
