Health Benefits of Sea Buckthorn Oil
Sea buckthorn oil, which has been known to heal even the most serious wounds, has always had a special importance. This oil was made by hand: the dried berries were covered with vegetable oil in a pot, and placed into a Russian stove for the night.
How it is obtained
Nowadays, for the production of sea buckthorn oil, an inexpensive and not very high quality vegetable oil or, in the best case, a low-grade olive, almond, or sunflower oil is most often used as an additional ingredient. Strictly speaking, the finished product does not contain a great deal of sea buckthorn oil (20 carotinoids), since it is, in fact, an infusion of vegetable oil with sea buckthorn berries of a bright orange colour.
The Ringing Cedars of Russia company uses only cedar nut oil and only that of the highest quality and only wild harvested Siberian sea buckthorn berries to create a sea buckthorn extract. Thanks to a special technology, the Ringing Cedars of Russia company's sea buckthorn oil contains 100 carotinoids, which is obvious from the oil's deep dark orange colour, rich sea buckthorn taste, and fragrance.
Thanks to these two facts, sea buckthorn oil from the Ringing Cedars of Russia company is greatly superior in its medicinal qualities to the sea buckthorn oil of other producers.

Sea buckthorn oil - Treatment and Application
Internally, sea buckthorn oil is used for the treatment of diseases of the stomach and duodenum, for the treatment and preventive treatment of atherosclerosis, in metabolic disorders, to level out the hormonal background, for the comprehensive treatment of infertility, in stomatitis, and several other problems and illnesses.
Externally, sea buckthorn oil is used to heal wounds and burns, for the preventive treatment of premature aging of the skin, to fortify the hair, and to sharpen vision.
Now about this all in more detail.
Sea buckthorn oil in gastritis, and ulcers of the stomach and duodenum
This is perhaps the most widespread manner of using sea buckthorn oil. The recommendation is to take 1 teaspoon of the oil 3 times per day a half-hour before eating. In the morning, it is essential to take it on an empty stomach. At the very beginning of the treatment, unpleasant sensations may occur. These include a bitter taste in the mouth and heartburn. This stage must simply be tolerated; everything must be taken according to the schedule. The course of treatment is 1 month.
Sea buckthorn oil in stomatitis
Those areas requiring treatment may simply be rubbed with the oil. But, in our experience, it is best to apply a compress to the problem areas. Simply take cotton or sterile gauze, soak it in the oil, and apply it. It should be held for at least 5 to 10 minutes. Afterwards, do not eat or drink for a half-hour to an hour.
Sea buckthorn oil for the nose. Treatment of a head cold
Place 2 to 3 drops of sea buckthorn oil in your nose 3 times per day. The nasal passages may also be moistened with sea buckthorn.
Sea buckthorn oil in tonsillitis
Rinse the throat with the following solution: dissolve 1 teaspoon of oil in 0.5 litres of warm water. Rinse every half-hour. This emulsion is also very good for making compresses for the throat.
Sea buckthorn oil in radiation injuries
Take 1 teaspoon 3 times per day internally. Also beneficial are the berries themselves, both fresh and frozen; a tea can be made from sea buckthorn shoots and leaves.
Sea buckthorn oil in atherosclerosis
For preventive treatment, it is best to take the oil twice per day, 1 teaspoon a half-hour before eating. The course of treatment is 1 month.
Sea buckthorn oil in diseases of the upper respiratory tract
It is best to carry out a course of inhalations of sea buckthorn oil—10 procedures consisting of 15 minutes daily.
Sea buckthorn oil in gynecology: tampons with sea buckthorn oil
These tampons are used for the treatment of cervical erosion. Liberally soak a tampon (using approximately 5–10 ml of oil); press the tampon tightly to the area of the erosion, and leave it for 12 hours. Change the tampons daily. The procedures are carried out as a course of treatment consisting of 8 to 12 procedures.
Sea buckthorn oil in burns, for the treatment of wounds that are difficult to heal, for the treatment of bedsores and frostbite
It is best at the very beginning to dress the wounds with a solution of furacilin or penicilin. Then apply a bandage with sea buckthorn oil. Change the bandage daily. This treatment gives very good results.
Sea buckthorn oil in hemorrhoids
It is best to combine an internal dose of the oil with an external application in the form of compresses. Place gauze soaked in sea buckthorn oil on the painful area. It may be applied for a short time (an hour), or may be left for the entire night. If there is no possibility of applying a compress, then the painful areas may be lubricated simply by using a cotton swab.

I suffered from periodontosis for a long time. I was being treated by a dentist. They used electromassage, ointments, rinses. The treatment proceeded slowly. My teeth were exposed, my gums were inflamed. The dentist advised me to used sea buckthorn oil. I'll describe the method of treatment; perhaps it will be useful for someone. Initially I rinse my mouth, brush my teeth, then rinse my mouth with an extract of oak bark. After this, I make a type of wick from cotton, moisten it with sea buckthorn oil, and place it on my gums. I keep it there as long as possible, until no oil remains on the wick. At the same time, I use it to moisten my throat. The improvement was immediately noticeable: previously my throat would burn, but my throat has stopped hurting, and my gums have returned to normal.

Several years ago, I had an accident—I scalded my leg with boiling water. Blisters appeared, and my leg turned black. My neighbor advised me to apply sea buckthorn oil to the place of the burn, and within several minutes the pain went away, and by the end of the day, the blisters had subsided...

In the spring of 2012, I went to an optician complaining that my vision was deteriorating. The diagnosis was a cataract. The only thing to do was operate. But I had read somewhere about sea buckthorn oil. I began to apply two drops of the oil in both eyes almost every day. It stung and burned, but I put up with it. I did this procedure for eight months, and did not take any other medicine. Soon, according to the second opinion of that same doctor, an operation was no longer required.

"Pine Power" for improving the health of children and adolescents
Recent years have seen a constant rise in the rate of disease among children and adolescents, involving, in the first instance, neuroendocrine, immune, and allergic disorders, anemia, and diseases of the circulatory organs. The psychological health of children is becoming worse, mainly at the expense of borderline psychological disorders. There is a constant increase in the number of handicapped children.
Scientific studies conclusively demonstrate that restoring the resistance to the detrimental effects of the environment and increasing immune protection is directly related to supplying the body with a full and balanced collection of all the essential elements of nutrition.
Ringing Cedars of Russia, together with the scientists of the Clinical and Experimental Lymphology Scientific Research Institute of the Siberian Division of the Russian Academy of Medical Sciences, is offering natural protein-vitamin product - the Pine Power.
As healthy nutritional product, Pine Power contains only natural components - the flakes of the kernel of the cedar nut. The regular use of Pine Power makes it possible to effectively compensate for a deficit of protein, vitamins, and mineral substances in a natural form, and assists in the strengthening of immunity in children and adults.
Pine Power is a source of all the protein essential for the growth and development of children and for strengthening the immunity of the child. The plant protein of the cedar nut kernel contains all the necessary amino acids and is excellently assimilated.
The oil of the cedar nut contains polyunsaturated fatty acids, with an optimal ratio of Omega-3 and Omega-6 essential fatty acids, important for the formation of the membranes of new cells during the intensive growth period of children.
Cedar flakes contain a significant quantity of fat-soluble (A, E, D, K) and water-soluble (B group, C, PP) vitamins. This product is successfully used for the preventive treatment and correction of hypovitaminosis.
The mineral composition of cedar flakes is noted for its high content of potassium, magnesium, phosphorus, copper, zinc, and iodine.
Saturating the body with biological forms of iodine improves the function of the thyroid gland. The product may be recommended for the preventive treatment and correction of conditions involving iodine deficiency, which are prevalent in children and will often appear in the form of a delay in physical and mental development.
The dietary fiber in cedar flakes has the ability to bind toxins and metabolic products in the intestines and to remove them from the body. It is a culture medium for the normal microflora of the intestines, therefore Pine Power contributes to the prevention of dysbacteriosis and to strengthening immunity in children.
The regular use of Pine Power improves the formation, growth, and development of all the organs and systems of a child's body, and restores the mechanisms of self-regulation that have been genetically established.
The use of Pine Power protein-vitamin product makes it possible for adolescents to achieve their full development during the period of their sexual maturation, while allowing them to remain at an optimum level of health and creating the prerequisites for the proper formation of their reproductive functions.
A Pine Power protein-vitamin product may be effectively used for the preventive treatment of seasonal catarrhal diseases (acute respiratory viral infections, influenza, etc.) and for strengthening the immunity of children, which is especially pressing for groups of children, where infections are often "circulated."

Our Unique Production Technique:
The brand name "THE RINGING CEDARS OF RUSSIA" stands for business integrity, decency and the highest possible quality of product. All products marketed under this brand name convey the primordial power of Nature and the warmth of our hearts. We offer:
A variety of high-quality cedar products, including cedar nuts and cedar nut oil.
Huge plantations of cedar trees grow in the Siberian taiga, said to be the ecologically purest area of the world. The virgin forest of the taiga has never been treated with any chemicals or artificial fertilisation, nor abused by agricultural machines.
Cedar nuts (the seeds of the cedar tree) take two years to mature, during which time the tree accumulates a huge volume of positive cosmic energy. Crops of nuts are harvested manually by people lovingly devoted to this task, working in a pleasant environment without undue haste to create unique products full of positive energy reflecting the infinite powers of Nature. Specific preparations include:
We pick only cedar cones which fall naturally from the trees, thus ensuring that only ripe cones are selected. We always avoid hitting the trees to shake unripe cedar cones down (as happens with some other commercial operations) -- a practice which causes the nuts to lose their healing power.
Cones are then manually shelled with the help of wooden shell-removers. Nut centres are separated from their shells using wooden rollers.
Cedar nut oil and cedar nut flour marketed under our brand name are obtained by the cold-pressure method, using manual wooden oil-presses.
Cedar nut oil is then stored in special containers and packed in a small village near Novosibirsk by name "Kandayrovo" using unique technology to avoid any contact with metal. The whole process is strictly supervised to ensure it complies with all sanitary requirements.
Final products are placed in special packaging to prevent daylight penetration, and stored at a temperature of 0C to +5C to better preserve the product's natural components. The resulting product is a bright gold-coloured liquid with the pleasant smell of cedar nuts. It is a 100% natural product with strong healing powers.
SIBERIAN CEDAR NUT OIL
Siberian Cedar nuts (cedar nuts) contain about 60% oil. They are therefore pressed to obtain Cedar nut oil, which is available on the market as a very expensive gourmet cooking oil. Cold pressing in all-wooden presses is preferred to retain the nutritional properties of nuts and derive the oil of highest quality.
The Cedar nut oil bearing "The Ringing Cedars of Russia" brand comes exclusively from wild-harvested Siberian Cedar nuts - one of the most nutritious Cedar nuts in the world. In comparison, other Cedar nut oils are usually pressed from the Italian pignolia Cedar nuts, which are not nearly as potent and are often harvested from trees growing in plantations. Our Siberian Cedar nut oil is extra virgin (100% cold pressed from freshly shelled raw Siberian Cedar nuts), whereas most Cedar nut oils on the market are either not cold pressed or even pressed from roasted (!) Cedar nuts, which significantly decreases the oil value. Finally, "The Ringing Cedars of Russia" Siberian Cedar nut oil is the only one which is available on the market anywhere in the world pressed with wooden presses in accordance with traditional techniques described in Vladimir Megre's life-changing book "The Ringing Cedars of Russia". In contrast, all other Cedar nut oils are pressed using steel presses, which immediately degrades them (contact with steel oxidizes some of the Cedar nut oil's most important ingredients such as vitamins, and is known to remove the 'life force' from the oil).
Cedar nut oil has also traditionally been used in ancient Russian and European natural medicine to cure a wide array of ailments - ingested (decreasing blood pressure, boosting immune system resistance, etc.) or applied externally (a range of dermatological disorders). It is also used in expensive cosmetics.
Cedar nut oil contains pinolenic acid, a polyunsaturated fatty acid, and is marketed in the U.S. as a means stimulate cell proliferation, prevent hypertension, decrease blood lipid and blood sugar, and inhibit allergic reactions.
