Hippophae rhamnoides seed giveaway

Recommended Posts

While in India I collected some seeds of Hippophae rhamnoides, the common sea-buckthorn berry, from a wild population of them in Ladakh. The berries are both medicinal and edible and make a very unusual, but delicious, tasting "juice" (more of a punch).

If people are interested, I'll give away 10 packs of 20 seeds. If more people are interested, I'll do another round.

Post here if you'd like some seeds and PM me your address.

The habitat:

Some more information can be found from leaves_of_the_yggdrasil off Ebay.

Also, have around 15 or so varieties of chilli I collected seeds from. If people are interested, I'll do the same for those on another date.

lots of claims made in the link including below. i wonder if it could be helpful for someone with reflux?

Gastrointestinal Health and Liver Health:

Containing numerous anti-inflammatory and anti-ulcer substances, the pharmaceutical effects of SBTSO is direct and clear. The concerted and mutual promoting actions of the more than elements have positive effects on the endocrine, circulation, immune, and nervous systems and this in turn creates a most favorable condition for the digestive system. First, the oil provides a protective coating inside the stomach, intestines and duodenum, thus preventing pathogens from harming them, and keeping pathogenic changes from spreading. The anti-inflammatory and anti-ulcer properties of b-sitosterol-b-D-glucosides, usorlic acid and betaine promote ulcer healing, prevent spread and inhibit erosion. b-carotene, vitamin E, unsaturated fatty acids stimulate cell metabolism at site and repair injuries.

Meanwhile, SBTSO has remarkable inhibiting effects on gastric acid and abnormal increase of gastric proteinase, thus keeping the ulcer from spread and metastasis. SBTSO reduces liver damage by alcohol, parasetamol and carbon tetrachloride, and prevents fatty liver. This is because it increases metabolism of cholesterol and fat.
