Sea Buckthorn (Hippophae rhamnoides):An Evidence-Based Systematic Review by the Natural Standard Research Collaboration

摘要

Clinical Bottom Line:Sea buckthorn (Hippophae rhamnoides) is found throughout Europe and Asia, particularly eastern Europe and central Asia. This herb is popularly consumed throughout the world for its potential impact on health, performance, and disease; however, more research is needed before a conclusion can be made on its safety and effectiveness for use in treating any human condition. The plant's orange fruit and the oil from its pulp and seeds have been used traditionally for dermatologic conditions, coughing and phlegm reduction, and digestive disorders. Promising preliminary clinical evidence has been found on sea buckthorn's use for dry eyes, atopic dermatitis, and burns.
