Omega-7 Secrets: Why Sea Buckthorn Isn't Just Vitamin C

from Foodnourish Deep Dives · host Pavlos Giorkas

In today's episode we're exploring Hippophae rhamnoides, or sea buckthorn, a resilient shrub packed with over 190 bioactive nutrients.We explain why focusing on its Vitamin C content misses the true therapeutic potential: Omega-7 (palmitoleic acid), the rarest fat that sends repair signals to epithelial cells and mucous membranes. Learn the critical distinction: fruit oil (rich in Omega-7) is best for skin repair and dryness (like dry eyes), while seed oil (high in Omega-3/6) supports cardiovascular health and manages cholesterol.Finally, we detail how to avoid low-quality products by seeking products made only via Supercritical CO2 extraction.Reference: Hippophae (Sea Buckthorn) Benefits: Omega-7, Skin & Heart Health.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/foodnourish-deep-dives--6602003/support.🤗 Support the show: Become a supporter for just 2€ per month to remove advertisements and help us continue bringing interesting topics while confronting mainstream narratives on health. Support FoodNourish Deep DivesThis episode includes AI-generated content.
