have not used it but know what you're talking about...the ingredients are correct, primarily the hawthorne/motherwort/capsicum. if you look at the bottle in the cardiovital ad, it is 1.75oz. this is 1 month supply. dr. Richard Schulze dosage for hawthorn syrup with motherwort/capsicum is 6 tablespoons/day. the cardiovital 1.75 wouldn't last 3 days at that dosage. you can make your own easily. at $59.95 per bottle for cardiovital, you might look into doing it yourself (and, yes you can!). Dr. Schulze also makes hawthorn syrup...his products are very good and well made, if you don't want to try to make your own.
