You can find sea buckthorn oil from the seeds and the berries. The extraction process is important, and some health experts recommend what’s called “supercritical CO2-extracted sea buckthorn oil” since it better preserves the nutrients within it than other processes. Though you should follow the directions on the bottle, look for 1,000 milligrams of pure sea buckthorn per serving, and take it twice per day.
Like most anything, if the label is unclear, it’s likely to contain other ingredients, meaning it isn’t pure sea buckthorn oil. To see the benefits, you probably need to take it for at least 30 days.
Typically, juices and blends have very little sea buckthorn in them so take time to read the labels carefully. If you can find sea buckthorn oil that comes from both the seeds and the berries, you will gain the most benefits. You should be able to find it at your local health food store. Just be careful to ensure that you are getting the pure product.
Sea buckthorn is tart when eaten raw, which is why it’s often found in jams and syrups, or as supplements found as a capsule or in juice form, making it easy to include in smoothies. *
