Black Haw Tincture (Viburnum prunifolium) – UK Food Supplement

Black Haw tincture is a liquid herbal extract prepared from the bark of Viburnum prunifolium. The bark is extracted in a solution of alcohol and water, 1:3, 45%, to concentrate its naturally occurring plant compounds. 

Traditional Benefits

Black Haw has a long history of traditional use in Western herbal practice, particularly for:

• Smooth muscle relaxation – Traditionally used to support the normal relaxation of smooth muscle tissue, particularly in the uterus and digestive tract.

• Menstrual comfort – Commonly taken to help ease menstrual cramps and abdominal tension associated with the menstrual cycle.

• Reproductive system support – Regarded in traditional herbalism as a uterine tonic.

• General relaxation – Sometimes included in formulations intended to support calm and ease physical tension.

These uses are based on traditional herbal practice rather than modern clinical trials.
