Sea Buckthorn Oil – The Best Home Remedy for Canker Sores

Looking for the best home remedy for canker sores?

Try using Sea buckthorn oil!

Sea buckthorn oil has been proven to be a natural remedy for mouth sores. This extract is made from the sea buckthorn plant; a deciduous plant originally grown in Asia and Russia.

The sea buckthorn plant was traditionally used in China for hundreds of years as an herbal medicine.

They used it to help digestion, relieve chest colds and reduce pain. The flowers of the plant were used to soften skin and the berries were believed to have anti-cancer effects.

 

Discover the Best Natural Remedy for Canker Sores:

  • Helps treat inflammation – The Chinese found this extract has anti-inflammatory properties and was useful for treating peptic ulcers, eczema, burns, psoriasis and dermatitis.
  • Strong antioxidant activity – The oil contains high amounts of carotenoids, tocopherols, tocotrienols, lycopene and vitamin E which may help fight free radical damage.
  • Supports wound healing – Seabuckthorn oil has high amounts of a rare fatty acid called palmitoleic acid. This fatty acid is found in your skin fat and scientists claim it helps support cell, tissue and wound healing.

And latest research appears to support why this product is one of the best home remedies for canker sores….

A study in 1989 treated sixty (60) children with canker sores with sea buckthorn oil. The oils were applied 3 – 4 times a day and all 60 children showed significant improvement after 2 days of treatment. After 3 – 5 days of treatment, 55 of the children were cured and two severe cases were completely cured after 8 days of treatment.

How to Apply Sea Buckthorn Oil to Mouth Sores:

sea buckthorn oilI think the best way to apply sea buckthorn oil to mouth sores or canker sores is to use a Q-tip.

If you have the soft gel capsules you can use a needle or pin to pierce the capsule and then gently squeeze the capsule to drip the oil onto the Q-tip.

The oil has very strong penetrating powers so be careful not to drip any oil on your clothes because it will stain your clothes.

I found the oil does wash off quite easily when I accidentally dripped some oil on my shirt, but I had to put it the washer to completely remove the oil.  The oil will also stain your fingers but I found it also easily washes out with some mild soap and water.

 

Follow these 4 Easy Steps:

  • Try to dry the area of your mouth where the sore is.
  • Dip a clean Q-tip into the bottle and apply to the sore.
  • Try to keep your mouth open for a few seconds to let the oils absorb.
  • Most importantly – Repeat 3 – 4 times throughout the day.

 

Where to Buy Sea Buckthorn Oils:

I found the best places to get this healthy skin oil is at local organic or health food stores.  You can also get it at many online retailers.

Due to the growing popularity of this healthy skin oil, you can now get it in lotions, soaps, soft gels and bottled oils. Many people have found it’s effective for relieving symptoms for many skin conditions such as psoriasis, dermatitis and rosacea.

Siberian Tigers Naturals Sea Buckthorn Oil

If you’re going to be using the oil specifically for canker sores, I would recommend using the bottled oils, not the capsules. The bottle pictured here is one I ordered from Siberian Tiger Naturals, based Vermont. At press time, I had bought a 1 ounce bottle for under $25.

Sea Buck Wonders is another company that sells a 1.76 ounce bottle of 100% Certified Organic Sea Buckthorn Oils available from Amazon.com which has received many favorable reviews.

The oils can be made from the fruit or seeds of the plant. It’s reported that seed oils are supposed to have a higher concentration of fatty acids (compared to the fruit oils). I have used oils made from the fruit and found it worked just fine for treating my canker sores.

You may find these plant oils are one of the best home remedies for canker sores. Please remember that not everyone will get the same results, but I hope this will be an effective treatment for your canker sores.
