Tibetan sea buckthorn

The superfruit of geniuses

Dear reader,

Today I am happy to present to you the result of a quest also historical than that of the Holy Grail ...

A quest that fascinates scientists today, but which the greatest historical figures continue to pursue. in secret for millennia.

Aristotle, Alexander the Great, Genghis Khan, Jean-Jacques Rousseau, Albert Einstein , the Dalai Lama , Thomas Mann [1] , …

They all tasted a fruit born in the last place in the world you would venture to pick.

At an altitude of over 4,000 meters, in a country where altitude sickness is common [2] .

This is the ideal climate for sea buckthorn berries: one of the harshest climates in the world, where any other form of plant growth is extremely difficult [3] .

It's a survival champion which proliferates…

Where all competition is eliminated.

How does she do it?

And what can this berry that seems to survive everything bring us?

I combed through dozens of theses and studies on this bay

Over the past few months, I have been conducting an extensive research on Tibetan sea buckthorn.

The content of this letter is the result of intense research.

I combed through all the theses and all the studies I found on the subject.

Because what I have to tell you about the health potential of sea buckthorn exceeds anything you can imagine (and anything I imagined myself before embarking on this research).

In the next few minutes you will learn:

  • Why Big Pharma Risks Being knocked down in a very short time...
  • THE 6 essential criteria for identifying a very high-quality sea buckthorn extract
  • 5 controversial ingredients found in most dietary supplements – and how to avoid them
  • For what sea ​​buckthorn of origins is more interesting for your health than that of new GMO species,
  • The “ micro-shields ” that allow precious nutrients (omega-3 and 7 fatty acids, vitamins C, E, etc.) to reach your body intact,
  • And above all, a simple gesture to take care of your immune system , of your heart and of your skin in 30 seconds a day!

Before I clarify all these points, I absolutely want you to know two things:

  1. Why sea buckthorn (used for thousands of years in Tibet) has become the superfruit of the elites (emperors, scientists and Nobel Prize winners),
  2. What exactly are the proven and recognized benefits of sea buckthorn .

How this glacier fruit became an elite secret

Sea buckthorn has been known since ancient times. It has been mentioned in major treatises for over 2,500 years:

  • For centuries, traditional Tibetan use has been to use it against nearly 10 health problems [4] .
  • The famous Tibetan sage Yuthog Yonten Gonpo lists more than 300 sea buckthorn preparations in the treatise "Gyü-Shi",
  • The Greek scholar Dioscorides, born a few decades after Jesus Christ, praised the virtues of sea buckthorn in one of his famous treatises. Materia Medica [5] .
  • Emperor Alexander the Great noticed the preference of elite horses for this fruit [6] .
  • Genghis Khan, one of the greatest conquerors in history, consumed it regularly… and lived for 47 years [7] above average, to face the harsh climate of the steppes, to ride horses and to govern the largest empire in the world [8] .

Then the use of sea buckthorn continued in an even more elitist sphere:

  • The doctor of the Dalai Lama (Nobel Peace Prize winner) gives a central place to this berry in Tibetan tradition,
  • Albert Einstein (Nobel Prize for Physics) and Thomas Mann (Nobel Prize for Literature) regularly spent their holidays on an island where this bay was served to them with every sauce [9] ,
  • Jean-Jacques Rousseau, Philosopher of the Enlightenment, ate it regularly. He even thought that it contributed to perfect health [10] ,
  • During the 1988 Seoul Olympics, Chinese authorities revealed that their athletes had consumed this berry in various forms as a permitted stimulant [11] .

Sea buckthorn, the key to their exploits?

Learning all this, I wondered if sea buckthorn consumption could explain their exceptional performance…

I don't pretend to have the answer.

But what I can be sure of is that scientific lighting available today attests to its beneficial effects on health.

Here are its health effects tolerated by EFSA , the European Food Safety Authority (which is known to be strict when it comes to natural solutions):

  • It improves the activity of the intestinal tract ,

  • He promotes metabolism ,

  • He help in case of dry skin ,

  • It helps improve the mucous membranes of the eye, vagina and mouth ,

  • It helps to maintain a healthy skin from the inside out ,

  • It contributes to natural defenses and body resistance ,

  • He supports the immune system ,

  • He contributes to physical well-being ,

  • He strengthens the cardiac system .

Scientists themselves are still far from having discovered everything about the health benefits of sea buckthorn...

But they already understand why sea buckthorn has held its reputation as a gift from nature for more than 25 centuries.

25 times more vitamin C than in oranges!

One of the greatest benefits of sea buckthorn fruit is its concentration of vitamin C.

So forgive me, I'm going to be a little technical...

But you need to know what this could mean for you.

Just compare the vitamin C rate (in mg) per 100 g of fruit on this infographic [12][13][14][15] :

Here again, on the benefits of vitamin C, the claims recognized by health authorities are numerous:

  • Vitamin C contributes to the regeneration of the reduced form of vitamin E ,
  • To normal collagen formation to ensure the normal function of teeth , gums and skin
  • It contributes to the normal functioning of the immune system
  • It helps reduce fatigue
  • Vitamin C contributes to normal collagen formation for the normal function of bones, cartilage and blood vessels
  • Vitamin C contributes to maintaining the normal function of the immune system during and after a intense physical exercise
  • She increases iron absorption.
  • Vitamin C contributes to protect cells against oxidative stress , and to function normal nervous system .
  • It contributes to normal psychological functions .
  • And to a normal energy metabolism.

He was nicknamed the “Emperor’s Heart Blood” – Here’s Why

Today, no one I know disputes this beneficial effect on the heart - more than 20 studies and scientific references support this .

But the great historical figures who consumed sea buckthorn were not aware of this... and yet they suspected that it contributed to the resistance of their bodies.

I have already mentioned Emperor Genghis Khan, one of the greatest conquerors in history [16] .

He had a very high quality sea buckthorn oil , which was reserved for him.

Convinced that this luxury product was good for his body, he consumed it daily.

So much so that sea buckthorn oil has become the "blood of the emperor's heart."

No doubt Genghis Khan made the most of it!

At a time when life expectancy did not exceed 25 years on average in France [17] .

And despite the increased danger of death in combat...

…he lived up to 72 years [18] !

This makes 47 years older than the French average at the time, braving the harsh climate of the Mongolian steppes, riding horses and governing the largest empire in the world.

A feat that nature allowed him to accomplish...

A rare source of Omega-7

Neither Aristotle, nor Alexander the Great, nor Einstein knew that sea buckthorn contained omega-7.

It is an extremely interesting fatty acid, and still almost unknown.

To study omega-7 , scientists have mainly relied on studies conducted on sea buckthorn, as it is one of the few foods that contains it [19] .

Here's what they discovered :

  • In the sufficient presence of omega-7, well-hydrated mucous membranes (ocular, oral, vaginal mucous membranes, etc.) have been observed [20] ,
  • Healthy cholesterol levels and good insulin sensitivity were maintained [21] ,
  • Proper functioning of fat and sugar metabolism was maintained [22] ,
  • They also learned that the parts of the body richest in omega-7 are the skin and mucous membranes [23] .
  • Tibetan sea buckthorn is said to be 3 times richer in omega-7 than anchovies [24] …

More than 110 publications, research papers and clinical studies on sea buckthorn

I'm frustrated that I'm only telling you about a tiny part of my research on sea buckthorn...

But I stick to the rule imposed by law:

Sea buckthorn health claims should only be based on claims tolerated by the authorities.

And, you might tell me that that's already a lot (I just quoted you about twenty of benefits)!

But I went to a lot of trouble to conduct this investigation.

And I have the right to tell you that science continues to progress on the biological mechanisms of sea buckthorn...

All sources are at your disposal.

Studies, research work, theses and other scientific publications are counted by the hundreds .

This is the kind of biological mechanisms that scientists continue to study:

  • Thanks to the mobilization of three types of stem cells [25] , sea buckthorn strengthens the cardiac system and would even contribute to the physical well-being ,
  • The interaction of omega-7 with sugar metabolism [26] would allow sea buckthorn to boost your metabolism ,
  • And many other researches related to the proper functioning of the skin , of the brain [27] , to the ophthalmological sphere (AMD), problems gynecological [28] And gastrointestinal [29] .

In Tibet it is called

“the bay of life and longevity”

In Tibetan tradition, sea buckthorn is nicknamed “the bay of life and longevity” .

However, when it comes to longevity, there are two phenomena that absolutely must be combated:

  • Oxidation (or oxidative stress) is the pollution of your body by free radicals (unbalanced and aggressive atoms). They attack your cells and can cause DNA damage, accelerate cellular aging and be responsible for the appearance of disease risk factors [30] .
  • Chronic inflammation is a disruption of your immune system. It exhausts your body, damages your tissues and weakens your organs. Recent studies show that it is the cause of most of the diseases of civilization [31] .

These two phenomena cause almost all of the health problems that could affect you [32] …

And it is because of them that the diseases of civilization are EXPLODING. It is to these two phenomena that the explosion of cardiac, degenerative, metabolic diseases could be attributed...

It's as if nature had put everything in sea buckthorn to support your vital functions

It is important to know that immune system disruption and oxidation feed off each other.

So if you take care of one without paying attention to the other… It doesn't make much sense.

The one that remains will open the door to the one you chased away.

And to my knowledge, there is only one fruit that:

  • Focus them antioxidant vitamins C and E having capacities to neutralize free radicals
  • Supports the immune system (and therefore helps manage the mechanisms involved in the immune response, such as inflammation ),
  • Has a positive effect on most of your vital functions (intestinal tract activity, metabolism, immune support, cardiac system, etc.)

This fruit is Tibetan sea buckthorn .

Some companies are already using it to make creams, oils or powder.

Unfortunately, sea buckthorn berries often fall into the hands of people who waste their tremendous health potential...

From skin to seeds, I don't tolerate no waste

Some companies are not interested in all parts of the sea buckthorn.

They only keep the juice, or the oil...

And the rest is wasted.

When I imagine that such a treasure could end up in the trash, it makes me angry !

Imagine all that nature offers you in a golden setting [43] . Each fruit contains:

  • A skin sip of vitamins A, B , (including Vitamin B12 : Several studies show that a vitamin B12 deficiency is linked to an increased risk of Alzheimer's or Parkinson's disease )
  • From the pulp which contains one of the highest concentrations of vitamin C which exists (more than 80% more vitamin C than in blackcurrant, often presented as the champion of vitamin C)
  • Of the seeds which concentrate an exceptional rate of vitamin E (studies highlight that it helps fight oxidative stress)
  • Of the seeds which contain a very high level of fatty acids ( omega-3, omega-7 )
  • From the flesh which offers an interesting quantity of amino acids (precursors of compounds such as DNA and neurotransmitters ).

It would be necessary to be mad to throw them in the trash!

Yet some laboratories only exploit a minimal part of the sea buckthorn.

So if you see that their formula contains neither seeds nor skin...

This is because they only have an average quality extract to offer you.

Microencapsulation and nutrient protection:

innovation in the service of 100% natural products

The challenge with sea buckthorn extract is to obtain a formula that delivers the same benefits as fresh Tibetan berries.

But today, innovation allows us to go even further.

Scientists managed to hold all the sea buckthorn molecules together without adding any chemical excipients inside the capsule.

To achieve this, they mixed all parts of the sea buckthorn (the oil contained in the seeds and the whole fruit in powder form).

The emulsion of the oil with the powder and the juice allowed them to obtain a very interesting structure:

A concentrate of microscopic spheres

In short, the oily part is encapsulated by the aqueous fraction (the juice).

The advantage of this method?

Inside the capsule, the aqueous fraction of sea buckthorn ends up train micro shields around the oily part, rich in fatty acids (omega-3 and omega-7)

And you know how much These fatty acids are fragile ...

If poorly protected and poorly stored, they deteriorate before you even consume them.

They need shields for arrive whole to your body!

Thanks to microencapsulation, the precious vitamins and essential fatty acids retain their qualities and virtues until they reach your organs.

The health benefits of sea buckthorn oil.

  1. Rich in powerful antioxidants :
    Sea buckthorn oil is particularly rich in antioxidants, such as flavonoids, carotenoids, vitamin E, and vitamin C. These antioxidants help neutralize free radicals in the body, which are responsible for premature aging and the development of chronic diseases. Supplementing with sea buckthorn oil helps protect cells from oxidative damage, thus improving overall health.
  2. Promotes skin health :
    Sea buckthorn oil is renowned for its skin-loving benefits. Rich in essential fatty acids and antioxidants, it helps moisturize, nourish, and regenerate the skin. It is particularly beneficial for dry, irritated, or damaged skin. Sea buckthorn oil promotes wound healing, reduces redness and inflammation, and can also help reduce signs of aging, such as fine lines and wrinkles.
  3. Supports cardiovascular health :
    The omega-3, 6, 7, and 9 fatty acids in sea buckthorn oil play an important role in protecting the cardiovascular system. These fatty acids help regulate cholesterol levels by increasing "good" cholesterol (HDL) and reducing "bad" cholesterol (LDL), thereby reducing the risk of heart disease. Additionally, they promote better blood circulation by reducing inflammation and improving blood vessel flexibility.
  4. Improved digestive health :
    Sea buckthorn oil has beneficial properties for the digestive system. It helps soothe the intestinal mucous membranes, promoting the healing of gastrointestinal ulcers and reducing inflammation in the stomach and intestines. It can also help improve digestion, reduce digestive discomfort, and promote better nutrient absorption.
  5. Support for the immune system :
    Sea buckthorn oil contains vitamin C, an essential antioxidant that strengthens the immune system. Vitamin C, combined with other antioxidants and fatty acids in the oil, helps protect the body from infection and boost the immune response. This makes it a valuable supplement for preventing colds, flu, and other viral infections.
  6. Anti-inflammatory properties :
    Thanks to its concentration of omega fatty acids and antioxidants, sea buckthorn oil has natural anti-inflammatory properties. It can help reduce inflammation in the body, which is beneficial for people suffering from chronic inflammatory conditions, such as arthritis or inflammatory bowel disease. By reducing inflammation, sea buckthorn oil can also help relieve joint and muscle pain.
  7. Eye Health Support :
    Carotenoids, such as lutein and zeaxanthin, found in sea buckthorn oil are beneficial for eye health. These compounds help protect the eyes from oxidative damage caused by UV rays and blue lights, reducing the risk of age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and cataracts. Additionally, the omega-7 fatty acids in sea buckthorn oil help maintain eye moisture, reducing symptoms of dry eye.
  8. Improving the health of the mucous membranes :
    Sea buckthorn oil is also beneficial for the body's mucous membranes, including those in the mouth, stomach, intestines, and respiratory tract. It helps maintain hydration and protection of the mucous membranes, which is essential for preventing inflammation and infection. It is particularly useful for people suffering from dry mouth, gastric ulcers, or chronic respiratory problems.
  9. Support for healthy hair and nails :
    The fatty acids and nutrients in sea buckthorn oil, particularly vitamins A, C, and E, promote healthy hair and nails. By nourishing hair follicles, it helps strengthen hair, reduce hair loss, and improve shine. It also helps strengthen brittle nails, giving them greater strength and vitality.
  10. Tissue regeneration and wound healing :
    The regenerative properties of sea buckthorn oil make it an excellent natural remedy for promoting wound healing and tissue regeneration. It stimulates cell growth and helps repair damaged tissue. This makes it an ideal supplement for those suffering from skin lesions, eczema, psoriasis, or other skin conditions.
  11. Weight management support :
    Some studies suggest that omega-7 fatty acids, found in high amounts in sea buckthorn oil, may play a role in weight management. They help regulate fat metabolism, thereby promoting the reduction of body fat and helping prevent excess fat storage. This may be beneficial for people looking to lose weight or maintain a healthy weight.
  12. Reduction of menopause symptoms :
    Sea buckthorn oil may be beneficial for menopausal women, particularly in reducing symptoms of vaginal dryness. Omega-7 fatty acids help maintain the moisture and elasticity of vaginal tissues, reducing menopausal discomfort. Additionally, its anti-inflammatory and moisturizing properties may also help alleviate other menopausal symptoms, such as hot flashes and skin irritation.
  13. Improved resistance to stress and fatigue :
    Sea buckthorn oil, due to its antioxidant and regenerative properties, can help improve the body's resistance to oxidative stress and fatigue. By protecting cells from damage and boosting cellular energy, it helps reduce the effects of physical and mental stress, thus improving vitality and overall stamina.
