Sea buckthorn, the lemon of the North
Sea buckthorn (Hippophaë rhamnoides) is a hardy wild shrub whose intensely orange-coloured berries are regarded as exceptionally nutrient-rich.

Nutrient-rich ingredients
The berries of sea buckthorn are an outstanding nutritional wonder. In addition to the already mentioned significant vitamin C content, they contain valuable provitamin A, vitamin E and B-group vitamins, including the rare vitamin B12. Particularly noteworthy is sea buckthorn oil, which is extracted both from the pulp and the seeds. It provides essential unsaturated fatty acids, including omega-7 fatty acids, which support the body from within. This profile is complemented by minerals such as magnesium and calcium as well as flavonoids that act as antioxidants.
Health benefits and uses
Regular consumption of sea buckthorn products – whether as juice, oil or jam – contributes significantly to overall wellbeing. The synergistic effect of vitamins and antioxidants strengthens the body's natural defences and promotes vitality. Sea buckthorn oil is furthermore known for its nourishing properties and is used in skincare, as it nourishes the skin and contributes to a more vital complexion. A daily intake of just one to two shot glasses of sea buckthorn juice is sufficient to supply the body with the healthy constituents.
Versatile culinary uses
The tart, sour flavour of sea buckthorn is unmistakable. Due to its wide range of uses it can be easily integrated into the daily diet. Sea buckthorn juice is excellent for smoothies or as a hot drink, while sea buckthorn purée provides an aromatic addition to quark, yoghurt or muesli. Consequently, sea buckthorn offers a local alternative to exotic superfoods and enriches the diet with a concentrated amount of valuable natural substances.
