Pine Pollen Benefits - Tincture vs. Powder - Which Is Right For You?

 

Pine pollen has been used medicinally for over 1500 years, beginning in China, Korea, and Japan. Because pine pollen has such a rich history of medicinal potency in China, there is a vast amount of clinical Chinese research testifying to its myriad of health benefits.

These benefits may include:

  • Improved hormone profile, increased testosterone
  • Anti-aging effects
  • Improved energy and endurance, reduced fatigue
  • Strengthened immune system
  • Healthier skin and hair (due to the many vitamins and minerals)
  • Improved sexual health, heightened libido
  • Removal of free radicals
  • Decreased inflammation

In this article we’ll take a closer look at the benefits pine pollen can offer you, while also answering the most common questions I receive about it. Before we get started though, it’s important to clarify that there are many versions of pine pollen on the market. Two of the most common supplemental forms of pine pollen are cracked cell pine pollen powder and pine pollen tinctures.

The tinctures and powders are both beneficial when used in their proper context, but it’s very important that we understand the key differences between them.

Simply put, the Cracked Cell Pine Pollen powder I offer is great for nutritive support, but it offers a more gentle and subtle hormonal support due to the powder having to be processed by the digestive system.

Whereas the Cracked Cell Pine Pollen Spagyric extract offers the most concentrated, potent, and bio-available hormonal support.

So if you are wanting the most androgenic hormonal support, then this spagyric extract is the product you want to go for. 

This product is NOT recommended for those who do not need it. Generally, this product is only for males who know they require androgenic support.

Cracked Cell Pine Pollen Powder - Nutritive, Energizing 

Pine pollen powder is a great choice for those seeking a sustained, calm boost in energy. Many of the ‘yang’ herbs typically thought of as uplifting or energizing (yohimbe, ashwagandha, etc) can be a bit overheating or overstimulating for many people, leading to big ups in energy but then a crash or burnt out of sorts. 

Pine pollen powder, on the other hand, can support your energy levels, your exercise routine, and your athletic endeavours without being overstimulating or causing depletions in the long term. Similarly, pine pollen will support your sexual health and libido in a balanced way, without causing you to be overly aroused and sexually stimulated.

Taking ¼ to 1 teaspoon of cracked cell pine pollen powder will not only give you the calm energy boost mentioned earlier, but also be very nutritious, supplying you with the hundreds of vitamins, minerals, and nutrients contained in pine pollen. Smaller doses will also support healthy hormone levels.

When choosing your pine pollen powder, it’s important to get one with a cracked cell wall. Cracking the cell wall allows for the optimal bioavailability of the nutrients in pine pollen, allowing you to reap the many benefits of this adaptogen.

Pine Pollen Spagyric Tincture - Potent Androgenic and Anabolic Effects

A tincture is an alcohol extract of a plant or tonic herb. Making tinctures is a very old process, traditionally used in Western Herbal Medicine.

The main advantage of a pine pollen tincture over a powder, is that the tincture allows for a stronger concentration of the phyto-hormones that occur naturally in pine pollen. This means pine pollen spagyric tinctures illicit a much more potent hormonal response than pine pollen powder.

Pine pollen spagyric is a unique, natural source of androgenic hormones like testosterone and DHEA. This is why many athletes use pine pollen to help increase their physical strength, endurance, and stamina. However, pine pollen spagyric’s hormonal effects also make it a great choice for older men, or for anyone looking to counteract the many xenoestrogens found in other food sources.

Healthy testosterone levels are a cornerstone of overall health, and have been found to be beneficial in many areas of life. By supporting testosterone levels naturally, pine pollen spagyric is a potent tool for increasing your overall health.

Summary

Both pine pollen powder and pine pollen spagyric tinctures offer many health benefits, but there are key differences between these two forms of pine pollen. Pine pollen powder is more nutritive and offers sustainable energy support, while pine pollen tinctures offer unique hormonal benefits. Both are excellent choices depending on your current health needs.
