Well... yes and no. Pine Pollen has been used in traditional Chinese Medicine for over 2,000 years as a health restorative, longevity tonic, and anti-aging nutrient. The oldest mention of Pine Pollen is in the classic pharmacology text “The Pandect Of Materia Medica” by Shen Nong, who wrote about it during the Han dynasty. In traditional Chinese medicine physicians prescribe it for: Moistening the lungs Relieving rheumatic pain Relieving fatigue Increasing Endurance Strengthening the immune system Improving the skin Strengthening the heart Strengthening the GI tract and stomach Increasing mental agility Prostate problems Increasing agility Decreasing weight THE SURTHRIVAL DIFFERENCE CELL-WALL-BROKEN POLLEN We distribute cell-wall-broken pine pollen, which provides up to a 20% increase in digestibility. During the manufacturing process, a low-temperature, high-speed airflow pulverization process is used to break up about 99% of the cellular material and, according to research, makes the pollen more easily digestible. Additional Surthrival Advantages Include: Processing in a GMP-certified facility Organic Grape Alcohol tincture No Fillers (ie. Magnesium Stearate) Bottled in Miron Glass and Tinted Containers DISCOVER THE HEALTH BENEFITS: Pine pollen is a remarkable option to help build a healthy immune system. Today, many drugs come from conventional medicine and break down the immune system. That’s just how they work–You treat cancer by killing it. You treat infections by killing them.

Shelf life of Pine Pollen Tincture and dry pine pollen is indefinite. *Always store in a cool dry place and use fresh Pine Pollen to maximize potency. Use the pollen within two months after opening to prohibit any moisture from accumulating in the pollen. How long should I take Pine Pollen? In order to maximize the results of your health throughout your life we recommend that you use Surthrival Pine Pollen indefinitely. What is the difference between the powder, tincture, and capsules? The raw pine pollen is more of a food, and will be targeting the entire system, whereas the tincture is bypasses the GI tract, more effectively raising androgen levels. What are the health benefits of Pine Pollen? [See above- “DISCOVER THE HEALTH BENEFITS”] Is pine pollen for men and women? The short answer…both. For building energy and vitality, in men and women, especially at menopause/andropause, pine pollen is fantastic.   Are there any side effects? Although uncommon, a small percentage of people are allergic to pine pollen (about 1.5%-10% of the population depending on location). Allergies are generally mild ranging from rhinoconjunctivitis to mild asthma in extremely susceptible people. If you have any previous sensitivity to pollens, you may want to begin slowly with pine pollen, beginning with a tiny doses, until you are positive that there is no sensitivity. What are the recommended dosages for Pine Pollen? To Raise androgen levels: Tincture: Full dropper 3x daily or as desired (30 drops, 1.5 ml, or 3/8 tsp 3x daily). Hold in the mouth for a minute, and then swallow. This allows more contact with the mucous membranes of the throat and esophagus and increases the amount that is taken into the blood stream. *Because the pollen, when taken as pill or powder, must travel through the GI tract and its digestive processes, it is much less effective or raising androgen levels than the tincture. As tonic, nutritive, and adaptogen: Capsules: 2-3 capsules, 2-3x daily—or the equivalent of powder, in other words: 4.5-9 grams daily (Approx 1.5 to 3 tsp daily). Are there any potential risks with other herb/drug interactions? There are no listings in anecdotal reports of Pine Pollen powder or tincture interaction, positive or negative. However because it is a powerful phytoandrogen, those who are already consuming a pharmaceutical testosterone or DHT should avoid intake prior to consulting a medical professional for advice.   *THESE STATEMENTS HAVE NOT BEEN EVALUATED BY THE FOOD AND DRUG ADMINISTRATION.
