The common name "sea buckthorn" refers to the numerous thorns on its branches and the yellow color of its fruits. As for its botanical name, Hippophae derives from the Greek words Ιππο (horse) and φαέ (eat), which seems to refer to the legend that says that sea buckthorn was the favorite food of the mythological Pegasus, from which it obtained strength and vigor. . The legend also speaks of sick and injured horses that, abandoned and in the wild, were later discovered running completely healthy and strong. An investigation discovered that horses survived by feeding on the leaves, branches and berries of the sea buckthorn plant. Sea buckthorn is known and used in China since ancient times that seem to date back to the Tang dynasty (7th-8th centuries). Its use is reflected in the texts of traditional Tibetan medicine from the 8th century, which describe the ability of the fruits of this plant to tone the "yin" and strengthen the "yang". In India it is part of the traditional Ayurvedic remedies. In ancient Greece, Dioscorides described its invigorating properties and it seems that Genghis Khan's army drank the juice of the fruits to increase stamina. Apparently, it was the first juice that was taken into space. At the Olympic Games in Seoul, the juice of sea buckthorn fruits was classified as an official drink. HIGH FIBER CONTENT
