In today's episode we're revealing the true power of Hippophae rhamnoides (sea buckthorn), focusing on why its famous Vitamin C content is overshadowed by the rare fat, Omega-7 (palmitoleic acid).
Learn the critical distinction that supplement companies hide: Fruit Oil targets mucous membranes (dry eyes, vaginal dryness) and skin repair, thanks to high Omega-7, while Seed Oil optimizes cardiovascular health and cholesterol due to its ideal Omega-3/6 balance.
We explain clinical dosing (up to 2 grams/day) and how to ensure quality results by demanding Supercritical CO2 extraction.
Don't waste money; master the Hippophae Health Benefits!

Welcome to another video of food nourish
0:05
deep dives the videocast of foodnner
0:06
nourish.net where we explore topics like
0:08
health food supplements and alternative
0:11
approaches to health and wellness. Okay,
0:13
so when I say seabbuckthornne, what's
0:15
the one thing that pops into your head?
0:17
For pretty much everyone, it's this
0:18
number. 14 times. Yeah, 14 times more
0:21
vitamin C than an orange. It's a crazy
0:23
stat, right? And that's what gets all
0:25
the buzz. But what if I told you that
0:28
the whole vitamin C thing, it's a bit of
0:30
a magic trick. You know, it's the flashy
0:32
thing the magician wants you to watch
0:34
while the real magic is happening
0:35
somewhere else entirely. The vitamin C
0:38
hype totally makes you miss this plant's
0:39
true power. So yeah, let's dive into
0:42
that. So where is the real magic? It's
0:45
in this super rare fatty acid called
0:48
omega7. And get this, seabbuckthornne
0:51
has more of it than any other plant on
0:53
Earth. The best way to think about
0:55
omega7 is as a lipocine. That's a fancy
0:58
word, but it just means it's a fat
0:59
molecule that acts like a little
1:01
messenger zipping around your body and
1:03
sending out signals to your tissues.
1:05
Basically yelling, "Hey, time to
1:07
repair." All right, so here's the game
1:09
plan. First, we're going to bust that
1:11
big superfood myth. Then, we'll get into
1:14
the difference between the fruit oil and
1:15
the seed oil. This is huge. After that,
1:18
we'll look at the actual science, and
1:20
we'll wrap up with a practical guide so
1:22
you know exactly what to do. Okay, let's
1:24
tackle that misconception head on. The
1:27
reason most people get sebook wrong is
1:29
because they're laser focused on just
1:30
one thing, the vitamin C. But in
1:32
reality, there are over 190 other
1:34
bioactive nutrients in there, all
1:36
working together. It's like you're not
1:38
listening to a single violin. You're
1:40
listening to an entire orchestra. And
1:42
that's where the real power is. And that
1:45
brings us to honestly the most important
1:48
thing you'll learn today. A distinction
1:50
that changes everything. You see, the
1:53
oil that comes from the fruit's pulp is
1:55
completely different from the oil that
1:57
comes from the seed. I'm telling you,
1:59
once you understand this, you'll never
2:00
look at a bottle of Seabbuckthorn oil
2:02
the same way again. Okay. So, what is
2:05
the big difference? Well, first you have
2:07
the fruit oil or berry oil. It's that
2:09
deep, rich red orange color and it's
2:12
loaded with that omega 7 we talked
2:14
about. This is your go-to for surface
2:16
repair. We're talking skin, dry eyes,
2:18
dry mouth, that kind of thing. Then on
2:21
the other hand, you've got the seed oil.
2:23
This one's a pale yellow and it's full
2:24
of omega 3 and six in a perfect 1:1
2:27
ratio. This oil works from the inside
2:29
out for things like your heart and your
2:31
immune system. And knowing this simple
2:34
fact, it gives you all the power. Why?
2:37
Because let's be honest, a lot of
2:39
supplement companies are happy to keep
2:41
things well, a little blurry. They'll
2:43
just label it seabbuckthorn oil and hope
2:45
you don't ask questions. But now you
2:47
know to ask. You know the difference.
2:50
Okay, so we've established they're
2:52
totally different. But what does the
2:54
actual science say? What can these oils
2:57
really do for us? Let's get into the
2:59
proof. All right, first up, the fruit
3:01
oil. That omega7 powerhouse is just
3:04
incredible for repairing mucous
3:05
membranes. And if you're thinking, "What
3:07
are those?" It's all the delicate moist
3:09
linings inside your body, your eyes,
3:11
your mouth, even your digestive tract.
3:14
The studies are pretty amazing, showing
3:15
real results for tough conditions like
3:17
sugar syndrome, which causes painfully
3:19
dry eyes, and even helping to soothe and
3:21
heal the gut lining in cases of ulcers
3:23
injured. And we're not talking about a
3:26
tiny insignificant amount here. One of
3:28
the major clinical trials for dry eyes
3:30
had people taking 2,000 milligs a day.
3:33
That's a serious dose. And the results
3:35
in just 3 months, they saw huge,
3:37
measurable improvements. Less redness,
3:40
less burning. It really worked. But
3:42
wait, there's more. The fruit oil is
3:45
also a rock star for your skin. You can
3:47
take it internally or put it on
3:49
topically. And its anti-inflammatory
3:51
magic helps with just about everything.
3:53
We're talking acne, rosacea, wound
3:55
healing, even supporting collagen to
3:57
fight aging. And the craziest part, it
3:59
has a comedogenic rating of pretty much
4:02
zero. That means, get this, it doesn't
4:04
clog your pores. How cool is that? Okay,
4:07
now let's flip over to the seed oil.
4:10
This is all about what's happening
4:11
inside your body. There was this huge
4:13
metaanalysis that's basically a study of
4:16
a bunch of other studies, and it found
4:18
something really impressive. It showed
4:19
that the seed oil can significantly
4:21
lower the big three risk factors for
4:23
heart disease. Total cholesterol, the
4:25
bad LDL cholesterol, and triglycerides.
4:28
That's a massive win for heart health.
4:30
You know, seeing all these proven
4:31
benefits, you're probably wondering,
4:33
"Okay, where can I actually find
4:34
highquality stuff?" Well, a really great
4:37
resource is foodnnerish.net/dealss.
4:40
They've gathered all sorts of deals and
4:42
discounts from top wellness brands.
4:44
Think Perpetual Life, IH Herb, Source
4:46
Naturals, Neutropics Depot, By
4:48
Optimizers, the whole gang. It's a super
4:50
helpful page. And of course, you can
4:52
find the link for that right in the
4:53
description. All right, let's say you're
4:55
on board. You're ready to give this a
4:57
shot. So, let's get down to Brass Tax.
4:59
How do you actually use it? And what do
5:01
you need to look for when you're
5:02
shopping so you don't waste your money?
5:04
So, here are the dosages that the
5:05
science actually backs up. For just
5:08
day-to-day health maintenance, a
5:09
complete blend of both oils, somewhere
5:11
between 500 and 1,000 milligrams, is
5:14
perfect. But if you're targeting
5:15
something specific, like we talked about
5:17
with dry eyes, you need that
5:19
heavyhitting 2,000 mg dose of just the
5:21
fruit oil. And for heart health, the
5:23
studies point to about 75 ml of the seed
5:26
oil each day. The bottom line here is
5:28
crystal clear. You've got to match the
5:30
right oil and the right dose to your
5:32
goal. Now, for that skin routine, it's
5:35
super simple. But I have to give you a
5:37
heads up, a really important one. The
5:39
pure fruit oil is this incredibly
5:41
bright, deep orange color, and it will
5:43
stain things. I'm talking your face,
5:46
your hands, your nice white pillow
5:47
cases. But don't worry, the fix is easy.
5:50
Just mix two or three drops into a
5:52
carrier oil like Jojoba or squaline
5:55
before you put it on. And maybe, just
5:57
maybe, use a dark pillowcase for a bit
5:59
just in case. Okay, now listen up
6:02
because this next part is maybe the
6:03
single most important factor for
6:05
quality. It is non-negotiable. I'm
6:08
talking about the extraction method. You
6:10
have to have to have to look for super
6:12
critical CO2 extraction. It sounds super
6:15
scientific, but all it means is they get
6:17
the oil out without using high heat or
6:19
nasty chemical solvents. This protects
6:21
all those fragile, precious nutrients,
6:23
especially the omega 7, and make sure
6:24
you're getting a pure, clean product.
6:27
So, I'm going to make this super easy
6:29
for you. Here's your buying checklist.
6:31
Five simple questions to ask when you're
6:33
looking at a bottle. One, does it tell
6:36
you if it's fruit oil, seed oil, or a
6:38
blend? Two, does it list the omega 7
6:40
percentage? Three, does it mention that
6:43
CO2 extraction method? Four, does it
6:45
come from the Himalayas or Tibet? That's
6:47
where the best stuff grows. And five, is
6:49
it certified organic? If you can tick
6:52
all five of those boxes, you've got a
6:53
winner. Let's boil it down even further.
6:56
Here's what to avoid. Any bottle that
6:58
just says seabbuckthorn oil with no
7:00
details. If a company isn't shouting
7:02
from the rooftops about their extraction
7:04
method or their sourcing, that's a huge
7:06
red flag. What you want to choose are
7:08
the brands that are totally transparent.
7:10
They'll clearly label it fruit oil or
7:12
seed oil and give you all those
7:14
important details right up front. So, if
7:16
there's one thing you walk away with
7:18
today, it's this. Seabbuckthornne isn't
7:20
just another supplement you pop. Think
7:23
of it more like a specialized repair kit
7:24
for your body. It's literally providing
7:27
the raw materials, the building blocks
7:29
your body needs to fix your skin, your
7:31
internal linings, even your heart. So,
7:33
the question really isn't if you should
7:35
take it anymore. The real question is,
7:37
which part of this incredible plant does
7:39
your body need most right now? And
7:42
that's a wrap on our deep dive. We
7:44
really hope you feel empowered now to
7:45
use Seabbuckthornne the right way and to
7:47
find a product that's actually going to
7:49
do what you want it to do. For even more
