The history of samphire dates from antiquity. In ancient Greece, famous doctors such as Dioskorides, the ‘father’ of pharmacology, and the famous votanologist Plinius, refer to the plant and its precious properties. The samphire was highly appreciated because it contains many nutrients, like iodine, vitamins E, C, K and minerals.

It also contains high quality antioxidants and omega-3 fatty acids and it is used in pharmaceutical industry as a diuretic and a blood cleaner, while it is beneficial to the liver. The samphire’s extract and essential oil are also used in cosmetology. Samphire has a variety of properties and applications on cosmetics.
