Sea Buckthorn Benefits: Meet The Most Underrated Super Berry

WHAT IS SEA BUCKTHORN?

With an impressive collection of omega fatty acids: omegas 3, 6, 9 and rare omega 7, more vitamin C than an orange and high amounts of nutrients, there are plenty of sea buckthorn benefits for your body.

Sea buckthorn has long been used in traditional medicine to slow down aging, promote heart health, and improve digestion.

The Ancient Greeks recognised its anti-aging and beautifying properties, and even used it to keep the coats of their race horses shiny.

The use of Sea Buckthorn was first documented by the notorious warlord Genghis Khan, who noticed the positive effect it had on his horses. He noted that after grazing on this plant their coats became particularly shiny.

4 WAYS SEA BUCKTHORN BENEFIT YOUR HEALTH

1. SLOW DOWN AGING

Sea buckthorn contains vitamins A, C and E, antioxidants and other healing nutrients that help slow down the aging process and help smooth skin.  

Sea Buckthorn is particularly rich in the rare essential fatty acid "Omega 7" (Palmitoleic Acid) - also known as the "Beauty Omega" for its contribution to shiny hair and glowing skin. 

2. SUPPORT WEIGHT LOSS

Recent studies with Sea Buckthorn have shown its ability to contribute to weight loss by preventing the storage of excess fat. 

Omega 7 fatty acids actually signal to the body not to use excess calories for the creation and accumulation of fat cells. Clinical studies have shown that it is also effective in the dissolution of existing fat deposits as it helps the formation of enzymes that burn fat.

3. BOOST THE IMMUNE SYSTEM
