Phytochemicals- These are important plant-based chemicals created by the plant to protect itself from external sources, like predators and harsh weather. The harder the conditions, the richer the phytochemicals in the berries. These phytochemicals benefit humans by strengthening the immune system, reducing inflammation and regulating hormones.

 

Phospholipids & Glycolipids - These lipids help stabilise and regulate cellular regeneration within the cell membranes. They improve the communication between cells and ensure they function at a higher and more effective rate.

 

Beta Carotene - A red-orange pigment that naturally occurs in Sea Buckthorn berries. Beta Carotenes convert to Vitamin A in the body, which helps to prevent age-related macular degeneration and slows down cognitive decline. It’s also good for the immune system and skin.
