Omega 7 Sea Buckthorn Oil
Product Details
Sea Buckthorn is a natural supplement from the berries of the sea buckthorn plant; a shrub originating in the Himalayas.
Modern research has found that Sea Buckthorn Oil is an important source of polyunsaturated fatty acids (particularly omega 7). Polyunsaturated fatty acids are important structural components of mucous membranes, which form the protecting lubricating lining of internal organs. Mucous membranes may become dry as a result of ageing or environmental factors. Sea Buckthorn Oil may therefore help to maintain healthy mucous membranes, as a source of nutrients required to maintain their structure and function. Omega 7 offers nutritional support for:
Natural lubrication of the eyes and mouth
Healthy skin
Women with age-related dryness
Healthy immune system
Recommended Dosage
Two Sea Buckthorn capsules twice a day with food and drink for the first two weeks, one capsule twice a day thereafter. Do not exceed the recommended amount.

Other Information
The berry of sea buckthorn has for hundreds of years been valued and used as a source of nutrients. The oil of sea buckthorn berry contains fatty acids of virtually all important series, omega-3, omega-7 and omega-9 and is exceptionally rich in palmitoleic acid (omega-7), rarely found in the plant kingdom. The oil is also rich in natural antioxidants; tocopherols, tocotrienols, carotenoids and plant sterols.
Antioxidants inhibit harmful oxidation of fatty acids in cell membranes. Plant sterols may be of benefit to cholesterol metabolism. Working synergistically, the nutrients in sea buckthorn oil support general well-being and may help maintain the health and integrity of cell membranes, especially in mucous membranes and skin. The Sea Buckthorn vegecaps are made from modified maize starch and are suitable for vegetarians and vegans.
