How many calories in sea buckthorn?
Raw sea buckthorn contains 75 kcal per 100 g. Because the berries are small and intensely tart, typical servings in juice or jam form tend to be modest, so actual calorie intake per use varies considerably.
How much vitamin C is in sea buckthorn?
Sea buckthorn contains 131.2 mg of vitamin C per 100 g, which is substantially higher than most common fruits. For context, that is more than double the vitamin C content found in a raw orange.
Is sea buckthorn keto-friendly?
Sea buckthorn is listed as compatible with a keto dietary pattern. At 9.9 g of carbohydrates per 100 g — offset by 6 g of fibre, giving around 3.9 g net carbs — it fits within typical keto carbohydrate limits when consumed in small amounts.
