Sea buckthorn oil is an extract of the sea buckthorn fruit containing palmitoleic acid, an omega-7 fatty acid. Traditional Chinese herbalism has used sea buckthorn for 1,000 years to support overall health and vitality. Recent preliminary research on cells in culture suggests that palmitoleic acid, a normal component of body fats and cell membranes, may also work together with insulin to support the uptake of glucose by cells. Palmitoleic acid is extracted from the sea buckthorn fruit via supercritical CO2 for a vegan-appropriate, non-GMO source of omega-7.
Omega 7 is a nutritional supplement that is produced using the berry and seed of the Sea buckthorn plant. This shrub, originating from the Himalayas, is rich in Omega 7 fatty acid, including palmitoleic acid and vaccenic acid. The vitamin A that is found in Omega 7 contributes to the maintenance of normal skin, vision and mucous membranes.
There are only a few plant species that are good sources of these essential PUFAs. In addition to the omega-7 PUFAs, sea buckthorn oil is a great source of the PUFAs alpha-linolenic acid (omega-3 type), linoleic acid (omega-6 type), and oleic acid (omega-9 type), as well as containing high levels of antioxidants (tocopherols, tocotrienols, carotenoids plant sterols and vitamin C).
That is why it’s beneficial for thousands of people across the UK for dry eyes, dry mouth and intimate dryness, meaning 98% of customers would recommend Omega 7 Sea buckthorn oil.
