Sea Buckthorn

Arctic berries are naturally rich in vitamins, antioxidants, nutrients and fibre. They grow and mature under the midnight sun, absorbing the goodness from their clean and unpolluted surroundings. Every berry receives 24/7 sun throughout the Arctic summer, which means they’re naturally higher in their concentrations of antioxidants in comparison with berries grown elsewhere.

Each teaspoon of the berry powder is equivalent to a handful of fresh berries. Because our berry powders are made from 100% Arctic berries, they contain the same, valuable array of important nutrients.

health benefits of sea buckthorn include:

  • Full of natural antioxidants, flavonoids and polyphenols that can help strengthen the immune system, prevent infections and offer a powerful, natural anti-inflammatory effect

  • Contains over 190 different nutrients, and more than 60 antioxidants

  • Extremely high content of vitamin C – over 6 times higher than in oranges. Sea buckthorn also contains essential vitamins A, B1, B2, B12, C, E and K1

  • Beneficial source of omega fatty acids 3, 6, 7 and 9. These contribute to healthy skin and hair, as well as in healthy cardiovascular function

  • Anti-inflammatory components of sea buckthorn can improve the body’s natural healing processes. They have also been seen beneficial in healing skin damage, burns, cuts and wounds, as well as providing anti-aging benefits which can prevent wrinkles, premature aging or acne

  • Medicine uses sea buckthorn because of its impressive nutritional content. The berries are also used widely in skin and hair care products
