Patients with arrhythmia can generally consume dried hawthorn. Hawthorn helps stimulate appetite and aid digestion, and it can also help prevent and treat cardiovascular diseases by assisting in lowering blood cholesterol levels and blood pressure. It offers certain protective benefits to the heart, and moderate consumption of hawthorn can be beneficial for patients. In addition to hawthorn, patients can also eat other nutrient-rich foods that promote heart and vascular health, such as milk and walnuts.
