Ingredient Overview
Pine needle

Pine needle tea has been traditionally used in Chinese medicine to alleviate the flu, hormonal imbalances and complications with vision. North American natives used it as an expectorant and decongestant for respiratory congestion. There is growing scientific research to support its use with viral infections and chest infections.

Pine needle tea is rich in polyphenols and antioxidants, which help our body deal with oxidative stress such as pollution and UV damage. Some studies strongly suggest that diets rich in polyphenols may offer protection against development of certain cancers, cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, and neurodegenerative diseases.
