This anti-aging tip is one your skin will love. It’s about a supplement you probably haven’t heard of yet: Omega 7.
The anti-aging benefits of Omega 7 are beginning to be touted by scientists for its ability to help control free radicals. But that’s not all! Omega 7 also contains dozens of phyto-nutrients that nourish the skin.
That’s why Omega 7 has become part of my anti-aging daily routine and is one nutrient you should consider if you want your skin to look and feel younger.
I’m sure you’ve heard of the health benefits of Essential Fatty Acids (EFAs) Omega 3, 6 and 9, but have you heard of Omega 7? Most people haven’t but those on the leading edge of nutritional science and anti-aging therapies are re-discovering what was known in ancient times in Greek and Tibetan herbal medicine.
Your body cannot make EFAs so you need to get them from food or supplements. The best source for Omega 7 is oil from the Sea Buckthorn plant.
While the benefits of Sea Buckthorn on the body’s largest organ, the skin, have been widely documented in ancient texts, Sea Buckthorn oil also has an extensive history of traditional use to promote digestive and mucous membrane health. Another major anti-aging effect of Sea Buckthorn in ancient times was relief of menopausal vaginal dryness.
Today scientists are touting Omega 7 for its anti-aging benefits primarily since it helps control free radicals and contains dozens of skin-nourishing phyto-nutrients, including full spectrum Vitamin E, well known for healing and repairing skin tissue.
Besides the other vitamin/herbal supplements in my daily anti-aging regimen, I also take one or two Omega 7 capsules each day. Talk it over with your healthcare provider – perhaps it’s right for you too, but don’t take it if you’re pregnant (or planning to be) or nursing.
So, if you seriously want to have more youthful skin, you can! Consider taking an Omega 7 supplement each day and apply my castor oil home remedy morning and evening for healthy, young skin. Want a copy of my castor oil home remedy? Just write to me at ellen@best-anti-aging-tips.com

My last post misunderstood Sea Buckthorn as being a sea plant. Apparently not. Anyway, thanks again.
