Transformative Pine Pollen Tonic Recipe

Wonderfully rich in minerals, Pine Pollen provides bio-available calcium, copper, iron, manganese, magnesium, molybdenum, phosphorous, potassium, silicon, sodium and zinc. It also contains over twenty amino acids, including all eight essential amino acids making it a complete protein. As an incredible adaptogen and androgen, it can be consumed on an ongoing basis to balance meridians and combat stress, without stressing the body. Being a natural source of testosterone, it can dramatically improve athletic performance, mood, normalize weight and protect the organ and gland systems in both men and women.

This no doubt, makes Pine Pollen a potent superfood to craft tonics with, which is why we are so excited to share Vitajing’s Pine Pollen with you in this month’s Rosehive Box!

The goal is to create a daily drink that:

  • satisfies a portion of our caloric needs
  • helps us fulfill our plans for the day, and
  • reach our personal health goals for our individual bodies into an amazing tasting concoction that we enjoy with every sip.

When you fulfill these goals, an elixir can transcend from being a simple beverage and/or meal replacement, and turns into a spiritual experience! To learn more about crafting your own herbal rememedies visit our blog here: DIY: Elixirs | Make Your Own Herbal Remedies.
