Sea buckthorn is a plant native to coastlines across Europe and Asia, in fact, it can be spotted growing wild along the east cost of England. The oil is harvested from its orange berries and is a rich source of Omega-7 (Palmitoleic Acid) and Omega-9 (Oleic Acid) fatty acids. Oleic Acid is the same oil found in Olive Oil!
Omega-7 and 9 are mono-unsaturated fatty acids (MUFA), while they are not essential fatty acids (in other words the body can make them) but they are important for overall health.
Omega-7 is a primary component of cell membranes and intake is believed to help maintain the hydration of mucous membranes, therefore keeping the natural structure and delicate membranes of your skin, eyes and intimate areas nourished and hydrated.
Many women over 50 years of age may choose to supplement with Sea Buckthorn oil for its hydrating properties.
