2 interactions related to cardiac
hawthorn + coq10
Hawthorn (Crataegus) flavonoids and oligomeric procyanidins act on the mechanical and vascular side of heart function, while CoQ10 supports the heart's energy metabolism in the electron transport chain. The two are sometimes combined as low-risk cardiovascular adjuncts, but the supportive human evidence is for each ingredient separately, not for the pair, so any "synergy" is extrapolated rather than demonstrated.
dairy + digoxin
Dairy is a dietary source of calcium, and calcium status modestly influences how digoxin acts on the heart. The dietary-dairy effect is minor on its own; the more relevant scenario is large stacked calcium loads (dairy plus supplements plus calcium-containing antacids) or intravenous calcium in a hospital setting. Milk proteins may also slightly reduce digoxin absorption from oral doses, but the effect is small and usually not clinically meaningful.
