Pine Pollen Tincture
Pine Pollen Tincture
Western Pine pollen
Our Pine Pollen Tincture is a potent, dual-extracted formula made from wildcrafted Lodgepole (Pinus contorta) and Ponderosa (Pinus ponderosa) pine pollen, sustainably harvested from forests in British Columbia. These two native Western pine species are prized for their rich nutritional profiles and naturally occurring phytoandrogens—plant-based compounds that may support hormone regulation, energy levels, and healthy aging.
Through a slow dual-extraction process, we preserve both the alcohol-soluble constituents (such as androgens, resins, and sterols) and water-soluble compounds (like polysaccharides, flavonoids, and micronutrients). The result is a full-spectrum tincture that delivers deep nourishment, hormone balance, and adaptogenic support for modern living.

Origins + History
Pine pollen has been revered for centuries in Traditional Chinese Medicine as a powerful tonic for promoting vitality, longevity, and hormonal balance. Traditionally used to invigorate yang energy and support resilience through the aging process, pine pollen is increasingly recognized in modern herbalism for its dense nutritional profile and naturally occurring phytoandrogens.
At Medella Mushrooms, we use pollen from wild Lodgepole (Pinus contorta) and Ponderosa (Pinus ponderosa) pine trees from the pristine forests of British Columbia. These native Western species offer a uniquely rich balance of bioavailable nutrients, amino acids, and plant sterols. By preserving their full-spectrum benefits through dual extraction, we honour the ancient wisdom of pine pollen while delivering a modern, highly absorbable wellness tonic.
Recommended Uses
Shake well before use. Take 1–2 mL (approximately 1–2 droppers) daily under the tongue or in a small amount of water. For optimal absorption, consume on an empty stomach or between meals.
This tincture can be taken as part of a morning vitality routine or used adaptogenically to support periods of stress, fatigue, or hormonal fluctuation. Regular use is encouraged for best results.
Always store in a cool, dark place and avoid exposure to heat or sunlight.
