Freeze-dried Buckthorn Powder 80g BIO

Sea buckthorn is believed to have anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antimicrobial, anticancer and immune-boosting properties. Sea buckthorn can treat eczema, speed up wound healing, lower blood sugar, lower blood pressure, reduce cholesterol levels, help with liver disease, stomach ulcers and radiation damage.

Improves cardiovascular health

Sea buckthorn is rich in flavonoids and omega-3, 6, 7 and 9 fatty acids, which have a powerful effect on your cardiovascular system. Palmitoleic acid is an omega-7 fatty acid rarely found in plant foods, but sea buckthorn oil is one of the only plant sources of this unsaturated fatty acid.

Palmitoleic acid, along with other fatty acids, may help lower cholesterol, reduce inflammation and improve overall heart function.

Supports cancer therapy

Clinical studies have shown some support for the use of sea buckthorn oils and juices in cancer treatment. A number of sea buckthorn flavonoids, in particular quercetin, kaempferol and isorhamnetin, induce cytotoxic reactions in cancer cells and help to stop their proliferation.

Improves skin health

Sea buckthorn is widely used in skin and hair products as it contains a rich range of vitamins and fatty acids. In addition to vitamins C, A and E, the oil is rich in gamma-linolenic acid, an omega-6 fatty acid that promotes circulation and reduces signs of ageing.

Sea buckthorn oil also contains plant sterols, such as beta-sitosterol and campesterol, which add hydration, smooth skin texture and increase skin elasticity.

Disease prevention

Sea buckthorn contains antioxidants that help protect your cells from damage caused by free radicals. This damage can lead to serious diseases such as cancer, stroke and cardiovascular disease. Eating antioxidants can help reduce the risk of potentially life-threatening diseases.

Sea buckthorn contains no additives, preservatives or added sugar. The berry powder is packed with vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and fibre and is a great addition to smoothies, teas, porridges, yoghurts, salads and other dishes to flavour and refresh. Sea buckthorn is rich in natural vitamins, omega 3 and omega 6 fatty acids, nutrients and flavonoids.
