Although Sea Buckthorn’s use dates back thousands of years to the indiginous people’s of Siberia and China, it has only recently been discovered by modern man. Historically it was taken internally for nourishment and used externally to treat burns, circulation, wounds, and skin issues. This yellow colored berry is jammed packed with nutrients. Not only does it contain a perfect ratio of Omega 3 and 6, it also composed of 35% Omega 7, and large amounts of Vitamins C, A, E, B2, B1, F, K and P. Thanks to the huge amount of Vitamin E, Sea Buckthorn aromatherapy carrier oil has an extra long shelf life of five years.
This plant survives well in extreme cold and recently companies in Canada have begun to grow it as a cash crop. These days, you need to make sure that your Sea Buckthorn is not a product of China, for these plants will not contain much Vitamin E or C. Although the seeds and pulp both have nutrients, they are of a different quality and quantity. If you are using this aromatherapy carrier oil for skin care, make sure it has been extracted from the pulp.
