Appreciated by various cultures for centuries due to its medicinal qualities, sea buckthorn is growing in popularity in the United States. Discover for yourself the benefits of our sea buckthorn extract powder.

Centuries of Medicinal Value

Sea buckthorn is a shrub native to parts of Asia and Europe. Its medicinal value, while new in the United States, has been formerly recorded since the 8th century in Tibet. Sea buckthorn is extracted from the leaves, berries, and seeds of the Hippophae rhamnoides plant, a hardy plant capable of withstanding severe temperatures. It has likely been used as a natural remedy by cultures for several thousands of years. Given that it includes important nutrients such as amino acids, vitamins, fatty acids, and minerals, it has long been used by peoples in Russia and China especially, for its nutritional and medicinal qualities. While the Food and Drug Administration does not regulate supplements, a growing number of studies are looking at the likely benefits of including sea buckthorn in one’s daily diet.

Benefits of Sea Buckthorn

As the number of studies into sea buckthorn in the United States increases, more understanding about its potential health and lifestyle benefits are being realized. Here are just some of the likely benefits of using sea buckthorn.

Promotes a Healthy Heart

Due to its antioxidants, sea buckthorn is believed to reduce the risk factors of heart disease. These include blood pressure, clots, and cholesterol levels. A study from the National Institutes of Health reported that participants who received five grams of sea buckthorn per day had significantly lower markers of blood clots than those given coconut oil. It has also been noted that taking sea buckthorn for one month can reduce blood pressure levels in people who experience high blood pressure.

Packed with Nutrients

As we’ve already noted, sea buckthorn is rich in a range of beneficial nutrients. It is rich in a flavonoid known as quercetin, which has been linked to a reduced risk of heart disease and lower blood pressure. Sea buckthorn also includes calcium, magnesium, iron, potassium, and phosphorus. Its vitamins include B1, B2, B6, C, and E. It may also provide all four omega fatty acids, one of the few plant foods known for this.

Boosts Skin Health

A number of studies have linked sea buckthorn with skin benefits, helping it against sunburn, wounds, and frostbite. It is also thought to protect against skin dryness and promote elasticity. For example, in one seven-week study, participants received a mix of sea buckthorn and water which was applied to the skin, which was found to promote skin elasticity.
