Sea Buckthorn

I was reading a magazine when I came across an interesting article about the wonders of Sea Buckthorn. With a little bit of extra research I now know that Sea Buckthorn originates in northwest Europe and central Asia. The Russians introduced the berries to North America in the beginning of the 20^th century. Sea Buckthorn berries have amazing medicinal purposes. The oil is anti-inflammatory, anti-microbial, analgesic, and regenerative. To find out more about Sea Buckthorn berries health benefits click here

Clinical tests on Sea Buckthorn medicinal uses started in Russia during the 1950s. The first Russian factory for Sea Buckthorn product development was located in Bisk. The Sea Buckthorn industry has been thriving since then. The berries are sold throughout the world as juice, oil, crème, tea, sorbet and jelly. Because of their anti-aging properties many Russian and European cosmetic companies are adding the oils to there products. For more information visit
