It is the first of the three treasures of the desert. Its vitamin C content is 400 times that of apples, making it the true king of vitamins.

China's north and south differ greatly in climate: the south is hot and humid with plenty of rain, while the north is dry with little rain, so the fruits of the north and south are also very different. People generally believe that the variety of fruits in the south far exceeds that in the north, and friends living in the north are quite envious of those living in the south, who can eat a wide variety of fresh fruits, and the key point is that the prices are all very cheap. But there is one kind of fruit that can only grow on northern soil, and it grows in remote deserts where few people set foot.

This fruit is the sea buckthorn berry, a small fruit with a beautiful yellow color and a taste that is a little sour, as sour as vinegar. Having said that, you may not have much of a good impression of sea buckthorn berries, but in fact this little sea buckthorn berry is the true king of vitamin C. The vitamin C content of sea buckthorn berries is much higher than that of the pears and apples we commonly eat, at 250 times and 400 times theirs respectively, making it worthy of the title king of vitamin C. If you find it too sour to eat, you can juice the sea buckthorn berries, so that you can fully absorb the nutrients in them without any trouble.

This sea buckthorn tree only grows in northern regions, tolerating drought and cold, so not many friends in the south have eaten sea buckthorn berries. The sea buckthorn tree can strive to grow even on barren land, and the roots of the sea buckthorn tree also have a sand-fixing effect. Planting sea buckthorn trees can also block wind, so the sea buckthorn tree is planted on a large scale in northern regions, especially in the deserts of the northwest, which plays a very big role in protecting the environment. This little sea buckthorn tree has such an important role, growing in dry and barren deserts; not only do sea buckthorn berries have an extremely high vitamin C content, but even the sea buckthorn tree itself is quietly protecting people's living environment.

In addition to the effects above, the leaves, stems and roots of the sea buckthorn tree also have high medicinal value and can effectively treat symptoms such as indigestion or food accumulation, which shows that it truly is a treasure from head to toe, with every part of the plant providing value to people. Now the sea buckthorn tree, after being processed as a raw material, is widely used in many fields. In addition to the food sector, it also plays a positive role in fields such as daily chemicals and medicine.

In the desert, sea buckthorn, sand jujube and licorice are called the "three treasures of the desert" and are an important source of income for local farmers. Among them, sea buckthorn is the first of the three treasures, leading farmer friends onto the road to prosperity.
