White Pine Tincture

Pinus strobus

ABOUT: 

With its fresh, clean taste, white pine is an evergreen herb that is a great addition to your wellness cabinet. 

White Pine can be used when working through respiratory and bronchial complaints, as it can help dry and thin the mucus from the lungs, especially green mucus. It is useful for removing mucus that needs to be expelled from the lungs. The resin from the needles can also help to heal the tissue after excessive amounts of coughing. 

When used externally, it can be a warming circulatory stimulant for cold, winter nights. It can be massaged into the skin in areas that need warmth or lymphatic support. It can also be used to clean wounds and help prevent infections. 

As emotional support, white pine can be taken to help open the lungs which can become smaller in times of grief.
