Sea buckthorn seed oil
The skincare and anti-aging effects of sea buckthorn seed oil:
Sea buckthorn oil is an excellent natural plant-based ingredient for skincare and beauty. The VE, VBI, VB2, VB6, α-tocopherol, carotenoids, unsaturated fatty acids, and other components in sea buckthorn oil offer outstanding nourishing and conditioning benefits for the skin. It can visibly improve the circulation function of epidermal cells, promote microcirculation in the capillaries of the skin, inhibit lipid peroxidation, enhance metabolism, delay the aging process of the skin, and has anti-wrinkle, whitening, and anti-inflammatory effects. After use, the skin becomes smooth and relaxed. It also shows certain therapeutic effects on chloasma, skin aging and wrinkles, skin keratinization and peeling, palm skin cracking, dry skin, facial acne, recurrent dermatitis, chemical corrosion, ichthyosis, and psoriasis.
The content of free fatty acids, hydrocarbons, total sterols, phospholipids, VE, VA, and carotenoids—key skincare components—in sea buckthorn seed oil is very high, several times to even dozens of times higher than that in other plants. The sebum components in sea buckthorn seed oil are perfectly integrated with its vitamins E, A, and vitamin A precursors. These substances are highly absorbable by the skin and have skincare effects similar to those of sebum.
The mechanism of sea buckthorn seed oil’s liver protection:
Sea buckthorn oil contains a large amount of VE and other bioactive components. Experimental studies have shown that VE has anti-lipid peroxidation effects, and liver diseases are related to lipid peroxidation. Therefore, the VE contained in sea buckthorn seed oil provides certain protective effects for the liver. Clinical evidence shows that taking sea buckthorn seed oil is highly effective against liver damage caused by harmful substances, fatty liver, and cirrhosis. At the same time, sea buckthorn seed oil, extracted from sea buckthorn seeds through high-tech methods, is an excellent health food for liver protection. It significantly inhibits the increase of alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) caused by liver damage induced by carbon tetrachloride, ethanol, and paracetamol, and counteracts the rise in liver MDA (malondialdehyde) levels. Its mechanism involves protecting liver cell membranes by resisting attacks from CCl3 (carbon tetrachloride) free radicals.
