Sea Buckthorn - Powerful plant

Sea Buckthorn


A medium-sized thorny shrub indigenous to Asian and European countries, sea buckthorn’s leaves, flowers, seeds and fruits have been used to support health for centuries.

Sea buckthorn fruit (berries) are a rich source of nutrients and phytochemicals. They contain high amounts of vitamin C, as well as other vitamins such as A, thiamin (B1), riboflavin (B2), pyridoxine (B6), and E (tocopherols). They also contain healthy carotenoids and flavonoids, including beta-carotene, gamma-carotene, lycopene, zeaxanthin and quercetin. Additionally the berries are rich in oleic acid (omega 9), palmitoleic acid (omega 7), palmitic and linoleic acid (omega 6), and linolenic acid (omega 3). Omega 7, which is found in only one other plant source - the macadamia nut - is a principle constituent of the mucus membranes in the lungs and gastrointestinal tract, as well as all cells, especially those of the skin.

Sea buckthorn has been shown to have powerful antioxidant activity believed to be attributable to its high flavonoid and vitamin C content. Additionally, sea buckthorn has been shown to support the maintenance of normal cholesterol levels. Though the exact mechanisms through which sea buckthorn works are not known, it is believed that much of its benefit is derived from its ability to control free radical production and damage, as well as provide healthy fatty acids that are known to support and improve various health aspects.

  • S180
  • Part88
  • SGC7901
  • Lymphatic leukemia
Sea Buckthorn exerts antihypertensive effectin part by blocking angiotensin - 2 receptor on cell surface.

A lot of research work is still needed to find cellular and molecular mechanisms of these activities and also yet to be explored for its activity in isteoporosis, hemorrhage,cataract, urinary sone, acne, psoriasis, polyneuritis, glossities, baldness, ant-obesity, gout,and chronic prostitis.
