Pine needles heal wounds, promote hair growth, balance the body's organs, curb hunger, and support longevity.
These are the documented benefits of pine needles as recorded in Donguibogam, the comprehensive encyclopedia of East Asian medicine.
Donguibogam documents that various parts of the pine tree—including not only pine needles but also pine resin, pine cones, pine joints, pine flowers, and pine bark—have been used as medicinal ingredients.
The medicinal benefits of pine trees are widely recognized, having been documented not only in Donguibogam but also in over 40 traditional East Asian medical texts. Among them, pine needles are particularly known for promoting longevity.
Rutin, a compound found in pine needles, helps dissolve fat deposits, cholesterol, and blood clots within blood vessels while also expanding capillaries to improve circulation. Additionally, pycnogenol, a type of polyphenol, boasts powerful antioxidant effects—over 50 times stronger than vitamin C.
Notably, the concentration of these compounds increases in autumn pine needles, making them particularly effective for liver, digestive, nervous, and circulatory system disorders.
Aditionally, pine needles aid in detoxifying nicotine, while glycoquinine, one of its key compounds, helps lower blood sugar levels. Rich in vitamin C and iron—both essential for preventing anemia—pine needles also support hair loss prevention and treatment. Furthermore, they assist in managing stroke, hypertension,
bacterial infections, and rheumatic skin conditions. Acting as a natural vascular cleanser, pine needles help slow down vascular aging.
Pine needles, often called the elixir of immortality favored by sages— Among them, the purest form is Pine Needle Distilled Concentrate, a 100% natural extract obtained through distillation without any additives.
Perhaps due to these remarkable benefits, many health functional foods made from pine trees and pine needles are now widely available on the market.
With advancements in extraction and purification technology, Pine Needle Distilled Concentrate has become more accessible than ever. However, it is crucial to carefully examine the raw ingredients and production process before choosing a product.
Consumers should check whether the product has passed clinical trials, verify the source of its raw materials, and confirm that it is made from 100% Pine Needle Distilled Concentrate. Selecting the right product based on one's health condition is essential.
