The Pine is a wonderful matter of continuity in the desert. If you are out hiking and meet one who happens to be a few hundred years old, a bit scraggly, but full of life-giving health, be honored, and honor her by gently harvesting and consuming a few needles for the agelessness to enter you. From the ends of pine branches come the flavorful tips, perfect for making pine needle tea. A little further up the branch the needles are wild harvested for Pine needle powder. The needles are rinsed in clean water and completely dried so that no moisture is left, then ground into an aromatic powder ready to be used in smoothies, teas or even added to handmade soap as an antibacterial element. When you consume pine needles, known to increase your circulation and your production of red blood cells, which means a tremendous boost to your energy levels. All pines support respiratory health and the Pinus Massoniana is no different. Just as the pine tea made from needles have been known to help in the prevention or treatment of respiratory infections, so can the powder be used. As an expectorant, it has been known to help reduce or eliminate excess mucus in the respiratory tract, at the same time soothing inflammation and relieving coughs. After you have experienced the exceptional flavor and benefits of the pine needles, you will want to explore other parts that the noble pine has to offer: the highly nutritious pine pollen. If you are feeling fatigued, sluggish or slow, consider adding some Pine needle powder with loads of vitamin A and C to your salad or stew, for that ultimate energy boost.
