The vitamin A that is found in Omega 7 contributes to the maintenance of normal skin, vision and mucous membranes. There are only a few plant species that are good sources of these essential PUFAs. In addition to the omega-7 PUFAs, sea buckthorn oil is a great source of the PUFAs alpha-linolenic acid (omega-3 type), linoleic acid (omega-6 type), and oleic acid (omega-9 type), as well as containing high levels of antioxidants (tocopherols, tocotrienols, carotenoids plant sterols and vitamin C). Dryness can be caused by mucous membrane breakdown. Mucous membranes line the inner surface of the digestive system and urogenital tract as well as the surface of the eyes and mouth. The essential PUFAs and antioxidants present in sea buckthorn oil act synergistically in maintaining healthy mucous membranes throughout the body.
