Very safe; mild GI effects; mild antiplatelet potential at high doses.
Interactions to respect
No major interactions are on record for Sea Buckthorn at typical doses, but tell your clinician about everything you take.
What Sea Buckthorn is
Sea buckthorn berries and seeds yield an oil rich in omega-7 (palmitoleic acid), carotenoids and vitamin E, used for skin and mucous-membrane health.
The honest bottom line
A well-tolerated omega-7 oil with real dry-eye and skin/mucosal-barrier benefits — a reasonable, gentle option for those issues.
