Buckthorn Oil - Directory & Reference Resources
Sea buckthorn oil-From Wikipedia, the free encyclopediaThe fruit of the sea buckthornSea buckthorn identifies a
group of species in the genus Hippophae, the most commonly used of which is Hippophae
rhamnoides. Oil can be extracted from either the seed or the pulp of the
fruit. Sea buckthorn seed oil and pulp oil differ considerably in fatty acid
composition. While linoleic acid and α-linolenic acid are the major
fatty acids in the seed oil, sea buckthorn pulp oil contains a up to 50% of palmitoleic
acid. Few other vegetable oils contain a similar quantity of this fatty acid.
Both the seed and pulp oils are rich in tocopherols, tocotrienols and plant
sterols. In addition, the pulp oil contains especially high level of carotenoids.[1]
Due to sea buckthorn oil's unique botanical and
nutritional properties, and there being no reported evidence of Sea Buckthorn
Oil causing adverse reactions or negative side effects, it is also used as a
natural remedy in treating many diseases of mucous membranes, including Aphthous
ulcers, esophagitis, acid reflux, and peptic ulcers, as well as
dermatological diseases and skin conditions. It is also used topically to
treat radiation skin burns in Russian and Chinese hospitals. Due to its
ability to absorb UV rays, astronauts use the oil to counteract the risk of
suffering from radiation burns whilst working in outer-space.[2] Currently, a
number of cosmetic companies are adding sea buckthorn oil to their
anti-ageing preparations, because of its skin re-juvenating and accelerated
healing properties. It is also presently being used topically as a natural
curative treatment for acne rosacea, acne and acne scars, and as a stretch
marks prevention lotion for the skin.
