About Sea Buckthorn Oil
Sea buckthorn oil, derived from the berries and seeds of the sea buckthorn plant, is a rich source of omega fatty acids (3, 6, 7, and 9), vitamins, and antioxidants. Oral consumption is used for supporting skin health, cardiovascular function, dry eye relief, and immune system function. The typical dosage ranges from 500mg to 1000mg daily. While generally safe, potential side effects include gastrointestinal discomfort and interactions with certain medications, particularly blood thinners. Further research is warranted to fully elucidate its therapeutic efficacy and optimal usage.
