History

As per Tibetan medical history, Seabuckthorn berries have been gainfully used for at least 12 centuries. A legendary story - about Genghis Khan the Mongol conqueror - says his armies used Seabuckthorn berries and seed oil to enhance individual strength, fitness and stamina. In recent times, Russian cosmonauts have effectively used them on the space station ‘MIR' to combat cosmic radiation and as an oxygen supplement. Modern scientific research has established beyond any doubts that Seabuckthorn berries contain high concentration of primary anti-oxidants and nutrients like vitamins, minerals, carotenoids, flavonoids, aminoacids and essential bio- active substances required by the human body.

 

Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO), Field Research Laboratory (FRL), Leh undertook serious research studies on the product to harness its vast potential in facilitating human adaptation to extreme cold and hypoxic environmental conditions prevalent in inhospitable mountainous region with special reference to the world's highest battle field, Siachin. The aim of the research was to find Seabuckthorn preparations for improving physical and mental performance under hypoxic environment, prevention and treatment of cold injuries, and as an immuno-modulatory agent. The research led to the development of an herbal beverage whose trials were successfully concluded in high altitude areas including Siachin under varying environmental conditions. These trials revealed that the fruit extract did not freeze even at temperatures as low as minus 15 degrees Celsius. Now the search was to find a socially responsible and seriously committed commercial manufacturer who would provide this wonder drink to common citizens at most competitive terms.

 

Subject is a small thorny nitrogen fixing deciduous temperate shrub. Grows under clear ecological conditions and thus, has accumulated physiological and Pharmacological efficient components, beneficial for normal metabolic activities. Bears clusters of small fruit, round to oval in shape with diameter of about 6mm, yellow to orange to scarlet in colour and sour to highly acidic in taste.


This temperate bush belongs to the family Elaeagnaceae and is botanically known as Hippophae . It is a dwarf to tall (3-15 ft high), much branched, thorny shrub. The plant is dioecious in nature, i.e., it bears male and female flowers on different plants. Flowering generally occurs in June and ripening sets in by mid-September.
Seabuckthorn Fruit is a unique fruit endowed with rare food qualities and can be used for a variety of food, beverage, skin care and pharmaceutical products. The aromatic and refreshing tropical flavour of the fruit makes it an ideal ingredient for, a number of sophisticated as well as general applications. Worldwide it is mainly used for the down stream products for health and skincare. In India, however, due to wild growth and zero use of chemical fertilizers and typical soil conditions, it holds additional promise for use as a beverage in the form of a Ready to serve juice and / or a juice concentrate. The juice of this fruit acts not only as an energizer and a tonic for lighting cold and altitude sickness, but also has medicinal properties of lowering cholesterol, controlling blood pressure, building up resistance against cancer, impeding ageing and improving memory. It serves as an anti-oxidant and combats free radicals in the body that cause maladies like cancer, coronary problems and angina. Besides, its oil is good for the skin. The fruit pulp, seed, leaves, branches and bark all have medicinal value. Strangely enough, seabuckthorn berries cannot be harvested in the day time. Before sunrise, the fruits drop off the plant -one only has to shake it. But once the sun is out the fruits cannot be dislodged even if one applied force. Seabuckthorn plant is also known as a Power house as it:
