Organic Sea Buckthorn Oil
Hydra+ from the Eliphe laboratory is a formula composed of sea buckthorn pulp oil and sea buckthorn seed oil, both certified organic. This product contains no other additives or stabilizers. Organic sea buckthorn vegetable oil is very effective in combating dry mucous membranes and skin aging. It is distinguished by its richness in essential nutrients, omega 3, 6, 7 and 9, as well as antioxidants, particularly vitamins A and E. It is the synergy between the omegas and the vitamins it contains in large quantities that makes this oil particularly active.
Sea buckthorn is a shrub that grows in Europe and whose berries are edible. Its oil is a traditional remedy used since ancient times. The fruit of the sea buckthorn is sometimes called the sacred fruit of the Himalayas, it is a thousand-year-old remedy to fight against all kinds of diseases.
Properties
The membrane of the mucous membranes is composed of the same type of cells as the skin. On the other hand, the skin contains keratin which makes it more resistant. If the cell membranes of the mucous membranes and epidermis are not properly hydrated, they become damaged and no longer play their protective and transmitting role. However, their hydration does not depend on the quantity of water ingested, but on the quality of the fatty acids and omegas present in the mucous membranes and skin.
If these elements are lacking, the skin becomes dry and the mucous membranes of the mouth, eyes, vagina and respiratory tract become dry and can even become inflamed. It is then essential to strengthen the collagen and elastin fibres of the epidermis thanks to antioxidants (vitamin E and carotenoids, among others) and to regenerate the cell membranes of the mucous membranes thanks to essential fatty acids.
Among the omegas, the most moisturizing are the omega 7 (palmitoleic acid and vaccenic acid, among others), which, precisely, are very present and of very good quality in sea buckthorn oil. Moreover, they are resistant to oxidation.
In our organic sea buckthorn oil, it is the synergy between the oil in the pulp and the oil in the seed that produces a unique effect. From an energetic point of view, the oil from the seed represents the essence of the plant, which energizes the oil from the pulp.

Use
Internal use: as the oil is very rich and powerful, Hydraphyt is used sparingly. It is taken at mealtimes to facilitate its assimilation. We recommend 1,000 mg per day, i.e. 9 pump pressures. One bottle lasts about 35 days.
External use: rub it directly on the skin and mucous membranes: mouth, nose, ears, genital sphere and anus. In this case, it can be used pure or diluted in another vegetable oil, at a rate of 1 to 2 pressures for 1 teaspoon of vegetable oil (jojoba or sweet almond, for example).
Precautions
Hydra+is packaged in purple glass bottles but it is still preferable to keep it in a dark place. In winter, the cold can freeze the oil slightly. In this case, bring it close to a heat source before using it.
