Sea Buckthorn (Hippophae rhamnoides)


Sea buckthorn grows where almost nothing else will — coastal dunes and mountain scree, ground with no nitrogen in it at all — and it solves that by making its own, through Frankia bacteria living in nodules on its roots. Freed from the usual constraint, it spends everything on chemistry instead: one of the highest vitamin C contents of any temperate fruit, and a pulp oil that runs 30–35% omega-7, a fatty acid almost nothing else in the plant kingdom produces. The Greeks noticed long before the chemists did — horses grazed on it grew visibly glossy coats, which is how the shrub ended up named Hippophae, “shining horse”.

Scientifically Supported Health Benefits of Sea Buckthorn

1. Immune function

Sea buckthorn berries are among the richest temperate sources of vitamin C [1] [2] [3]. Vitamin C contributes to the normal function of the immune system, and to maintaining that function during and after intense physical exercise.

2. Skin, collagen and connective tissue

Vitamin C contributes to normal collagen formation for the normal function of skin, blood vessels, bones and cartilage. Beyond that, a double-blind trial in patients with atopic dermatitis found that oral sea buckthorn pulp oil taken for four months significantly improved symptoms, while seed oil had a weaker effect [4]; a companion analysis showed measurable changes in the fatty acid composition of skin glycerophospholipids [5].

3. Eyes and mucous membranes

The best human evidence for sea buckthorn concerns mucous membranes. In a placebo-controlled, quadruple-masked trial, 100 adults with dry eye symptoms took 2 g of sea buckthorn oil daily for three months through the winter. The supplemented group showed significantly less of the seasonal rise in tear film osmolarity — the standard objective marker of tear film instability — and reported less symptom intensity [6]. A companion paper traced the effect to changes in tear film fatty acids [7].

A separate randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled study in postmenopausal women found improved vaginal epithelial integrity with sea buckthorn oil [8].

4. Omega-7 and barrier tissues

Palmitoleic acid occurs naturally in human sebum and in the lipid layers that keep membranes supple. Sea buckthorn pulp oil is the richest common plant source, at 30–35% of its fatty acids — macadamia, the next contender, runs roughly 15–25% [1] [2] [9]. This is the compositional basis for the mucosal and skin findings above.

5. Blood lipids

A 2022 systematic review and meta-analysis of 15 randomised controlled trials found that sea buckthorn supplementation reduced triglycerides, total cholesterol and LDL cholesterol and raised HDL cholesterol. On subgroup analysis the lipid effect was concentrated in people whose lipids were already abnormal [10]. A randomised crossover trial in 80 overweight women found the same pattern: participants with higher baseline cardiometabolic risk showed lower triglycerides on dried berries and lower total and LDL cholesterol on the oil [11].

6. Inflammation

In a double-blind, randomised, placebo-controlled trial in 233 completing participants over 90 days, serum C-reactive protein — a standard marker of low-grade inflammation — fell significantly compared with placebo [12].

7. Antioxidant compounds and their absorption

Vitamin C and vitamin E both contribute to the protection of cells from oxidative stress, and sea buckthorn supplies both together with a dense flavonoid fraction. That the flavonoids are actually absorbed has been demonstrated: in a three-month trial, plasma quercetin rose by 3.0 ng/mL and isorhamnetin by 3.9 ng/mL on 28 g of dried berries daily [13].

8. Digestive tract and gut microbiota

In a 90-day trial, 90 g of sea buckthorn puree daily enriched nine butyrate-producing bacterial genera, including Faecalibacterium and Prevotella [14]. Traditional use for gastric complaints is supported by animal work: in rats, sea buckthorn seed and pulp oils were protective across several experimental gastric ulcer models [15].
