Uvs chatsargana

(Увс чацаргана)

Uvs seabuckthorn is an edible and nutritious berry grown in the Mongolian Uvs province. Extreme weather conditions with temperatures ranging from +36 °C during summer to -57 °C during winter are not a problem for this plant, and Mongolian people have been using it in their daily lives since ancient times.


Uvs Seabuckthorn is used to make juices, jellies, jams, teas, oils, fruit wines, syrups, and liquors, but it is also widely used in cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries - it is believed that it can prevent infections, improve sight, and slow down the aging process.
