Pine Pollen Powder – The Superfood of the 21st Century
Pine Pollen may be one of the most potent and powerful herbs or foods available today. It is the male spore of the pine tree and has been used for thousands of years.
There are 126 species of the genus Pinus, but only a select few are used for their amazing pine pollen benefits. Ours is collected from the Masson Pine (aka Chinese Oil Pine) from the mountainous regions at an altitude of 500-800 meters.
Pine Pollen Powder Benefits

Cell Wall Broken Pine Pollen Powder
Like chlorella, pine pollen has a hard shell on it. If this is not broken then the nutrition that is found in pine pollen will not be as readily available to your body.
The powder is processed through a low temperature and high-speed airflow sporoderm-breaking technology, leaving 99% of the pine pollen with the cell walls broken, with sizes of around 1 to 2 micrograms and thus increased availability to your body.
Pine pollen has over 200 bioactive vitamins, minerals, amino acids, antioxidants and other super nutrients in every single serving. It is a wild-harvested superfood with no added chemicals or preservatives.
Pine Pollen is a Rare Source of Phyto-Androgens
These can help combat all those endocrine disrupting xeno-estrogens our environment is full of these days, from drinking water, pesticides, plastics and more.*
This includes:
- Androstenedione
- Androgens
- DHEA
- Androsterone
This is not a steroid and you won’t have any of the side effects of those drugs. Instead, with all the natural co-factors and the small amounts of androgens these will work with your body for adaptogenic effects.*
Gibberellins – Structurally very similar to androgens. These are basically plant steroids that jumpstart the first stages of germination. Spray them on growing buds and they will grow exponentially. They are found most in the buds and pollens of plants. They have been found to actually connect with male hormones receptors in the human body. Thus they can mimic androgens in the body and stimulate androgen production.* They also appear to have a regulating action on the prostate.*
Brassinosteroids – Another essential element to plants, brassinosteroids are being used by plant growers as a highly efficient, broad-spectrum, safe plant growth regulator. Pine pollen contains many of the over 30 different kinds already identified. Two of the brassinosteroids in pine pollen are the mechanism through which the liver safely removes xenobiotic substances, such as xenoestrogens, from the body system.*
For more of the anabolic effects, you’ll want to get the Pine Pollen Tincture. This is best for bodybuilding with pine pollen.
Morning Wood Guaranteed…
For men, take a three tablespoon dose of pine pollen (a megadose) mixed in 8 oz. of water before going to bed. If you don’t wake up with “morning wood” you can send back the unused portion of your pine pollen for a full refund. But when you do wake up “erect” feel free to leave a review of our pine pollen below.
Nocturnal Penile Tumescence, as the scientists call it, is a natural process that occurs in healthy men. When your hormones are working right, this should be a daily occurrence.
When on pine pollen one man said he had to “piss in the bathtub” each morning. As for how this translates to other functioning, I’ll leave that up to your imagination.
Note that this is a bigger dose than typically recommended, but it helps to ensure you “feel” the effects. Experiment to find the right dose of pine pollen for you so that this occurs every day and be sure to check out the details regarding our Megadose Protocol below.
Of course, nothing works for everyone, but this does for many.
Pine Pollen is Great for Women Too
In China, where pine pollen has been used for thousands of years, it is considered one of the great beauty tonics for women. Yes, it can be used on your skin too. Several of its compounds support both elastin and collagen. And taken internally, with its wide variety of minerals, vitamins, amino acids, antioxidants and more it’ll help promote your health.
Many women get scared off when they see the word “androgens”, not realizing that they too need these hormones, just in lesser amounts than men. Taking pine pollen, especially in powdered form, will not make you wake up with a mustache, deepen your voice, or sprout huge muscles.
Pine pollen is used by women for the same reason as it is used by men, to battle high levels of xeno-estrogens which do not discriminate between genders. This imbalance of high estrogen and low male hormones is linked to a number of conditions like loss of muscle tone and weight gain. Pine pollen can play a significant role in helping to balance those hormones by increasing androgenic hormones and detoxify harmful xeno-estrogens.
The tinctured form, which concentrates and makes the phyto-androgens more bioavailability, is generally not recommended for women. That being said we have reports from many ladies, especially in post-menopausal years, that have received great benefits from the tinctured version.

The Pine Pollen is collected from the mountainous regions of China in Yunnan province, from pristine and unpolluted locations. The pollen is wild harvested then processed at very low temperatures to crack the cell wall of the pollen, producing a superior product that is over 99% digestible.
No need for refrigeration. Store in a cool, dry place and pine pollen will stay potent for up to a year once opened. Refrigeration may extend this though.
Our pine pollen extract has been tested and found to contain no PDE-5 Inhibitors or Analogues like Sildenafil. This is a commonly used added ingredient to cut with inferior quality sex herbs. Sildenafil is the active ingredient in Viagra®. We are proud to have Pine Pollen that is high-quality that needs no special (and highly illegal) help to make it appear better then it is. For more info, look at the test results in the lab results tab at the top of the page.
We Now Offer 3 Variations of Pine Pollen Powder Products
- Pine Pollen Capsules (150 Count)
- Pine Pollen MEGADOSE (250 Grams) Bulk Powder
- Pine Pollen (50 Grams) Powder
*Use the options menu above to get current price of each
Dosing and Megadosing
Pine Pollen Capsules: The recommended dosage is 3 capsules 2x per day (.43 Grams per Capsule)
Megadosing Pine Pollen Capsules: 11-22 capsules daily (5 – 10 Grams)
Pine Pollen Powder: Standard recommended dose of pine pollen powder is 1/2 to 1 teaspoon per day. Many people get significant benefits with this maintenance dose.
MEGADOSING Pine Pollen Powder: 1 1/2 – 3 tablespoons daily (5-10 Grams)
“Oral dosing in China runs from 5 to 10 grams per day.”
– Stephen Harrod Buhner
The massive doses recommended by Chinese Medicine makes sense when one sees the number of nutrients involved. One tablespoon approximates to 3 grams of pine pollen. To get 10 grams of pine pollen in as easy a manner to remember as possible, you can take one slightly heaping tablespoon first thing when you wake up, again around noon or after a workout, and then lastly before going to bed. This also loosely takes advantage of the body’s daily natural testosterone cycle. Some people also just take all three tablespoons all at once.
Some prefer megadosing for more potent effects instead of just taking pine pollen tincture, for various reasons. To make the most out of your pine pollen while megadosing, take a whole tablespoon three times a day and let it dissolve in your mouth to increase the chance of instant digestion and partial absorption of androgens right into your bloodstream. This should provide the best possible androgenic effect with pine pollen powder.
For more powerful effect, turn to pine pollen tincture. Some people like to megadose the pine pollen powder, while also taking the tincture as well. This should provide the strongest results. Be sure to cycle the tincture though as this can be far too strong for people’s bodies to handle. Too high testosterone too fast could result in its aromatization to estrogen.
You have 3 options here for pine pollen, you can get a 50-gram bag of powder, a 250-gram bag of powder and 150 Capsule bottle. Of course, you save some money with the larger bag and you can use it for megadosing or just simply to have more for longer on the maintenance dose.
You can order multiple bags by increasing the quantity in your shopping cart.
What are these Capsules made of?
The ingredients of our Pine Pollen Capsules are as follows:
- Non-irradiated, wild harvested Pinus massoniana pollen
The capsules themselves are made of pullulan, which is produced from starch by the fungus, Aureobasidium pullulans. It is a natural polysaccharide of non-animal origin. So they’re vegan and animal free.
Pullulan is not produced by chemical modification, and is therefore 100% natural, unlike hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC), a product that is a non-ionic cellulose ether made through a series of chemical processes, with the natural polymer cellulose as the raw material. The reason this is important (and useful) is because these fermented vegetable capsules are 1) largely natural and therefore safer than many other capsules and 2) actually protect what’s inside them from oxidization, which keeps the pine pollen potency from degrading.
Here’s a bit more about Pullulan:
- not produced by chemical modification, 100% natural
- manufactured by natural fermentation of plant extracts
- neither genetically modified nor pathogenic
- well known in the pharmaceutical and food industry
- non-allergenic
- starch- and gluten-free
So if you don’t wish to taste the pollen, these capsules are a safe, easy, and effective way to get it in your body!

I started to take pine pollen within the last couple weeks. I have noticed some encouraging results, but pretty early in the game for me to make a determination as of today. One thing that i have noticed when trying higher doses of the pine pollen tincture(2 droppers) is that my right testicle ends up being sore a day or two following. This has happened twice now. Has anyone else experienced this? Should i be concerned?

You always here about different things in the holistic and health industry, but like me, most are skeptical and reluctant to spend their hard earned money on the items being so heavily bolstered in the description sections of each website that may be selling the next big thing. If you’ve had any reservations or reluctance like I did, dispel them and order the pine pollen. I started my health journey roughly three years ago with a tea by the name of Yerba Mate, which I still use to this day, but this pine pollen is just as special and has become apart of my daily intermittent cycled eating. Fat has fallen off of me and continues to fall off of me, and I’m experiencing a level of calm, as well as elevated energy levels throughout the day. This is a very special product that continues to deliver, but like anything that your body isn’t used to assimilating, it will take time to work and for you to feel the effects of you’re a first time user. Consuming the pills while I drink my custom coffee in the morning(Cacao, Ghee, Stevia, Himalayan pink sea salt, and cinnamon) on an empty stomach allows me to absorb the pine pollen much faster and feel the effects right away. I don’t eat until 3:30/4pm everyday and this product assists me in remaining adroit until that period of time. I look forward to being a customer of lost empire herbs for a long time to come.

I’ve since tried the male optimization sample pack. As with the other herbs, I seem to have noticed a better resistance workout and 3 mile walk and (occasionally) a few sprints and short jogs. The effects are subtle but once you’re engaged it seems to be a benefit. ( something has accelerated hair loss on top- I suspect the pine pollen, not certain but timing seems to fit.)

I’ve tried various herbs and recently bought the Pine Pollen Megadose. After two weeks of taking it, I can honestly say that is the most effective natural supplement I have ever taken -and I’ve tried a lot….
I wake up refreshed and have more energy, and my stress levels are WAY down. I am a 46-year old fit guy who’s been battling PTSD, who exercises regularly and the pine pollen helps with my workouts, but most importantly controls my moods and anxiety, and has helped me cope and stay calmer, which also has had a positive effect on my sex life so that is an added bonus. I feel like my hormones are finally balanced again, or at least significantly improved. Awesome product.
David Hayter (verified owner) –

Daryl (verified owner) –
Seemed to notice a subtle difference a few times during workouts. (I don’t do the maximum doses). Also seems it accelerated the already balding area on top. But anyone in my position knows it could be mind tricks, hard to be sure. A product from another company last year definitely sped up hair loss so I quit it. Was a natural T booster. Will be giving a rating on your nettle and beet products after a couple weeks of using. Thanks for all you do!

I started using Lost Empire Pine Pollen last year around October 2017 thru February 2018. Worked as advertised for me during the night and morning . Sometimes so much during the night it would wake me up with the hardness. I just bought it again, because finances allow it. So I’m looking forward to the benefits. And if finances stay good look forward to reordering.
Another thing that I did notice with taking the Pine Pollen is a calm and more relaxed feeling during the day while working. Stress was not bothering me, which is a good thing.
One of the things I would do on Fridays instead taking the powered pollen is use the Pine Tincture instead and it would seem to be even more effective in the benefits it delivered. Thank you for a great product Lost Empire. Bruce Frame

Christopher (verified owner) –
Before I found out about pine pollen from my brother, I had been going through anxiety, depression, and I experienced a bad drop in my libido. It was during this time that I also found out from my doctor that I had very low testosterone (and I’m a young guy). I spent several weeks hopelessly doing research on natural approaches to increase my testosterone, restore my libido, and get though the ups and downs I had been going through. It wasn’t until I tried taking pine pollen that I realized there’s hope! Within my first few days of taking the pine pollen at its standard dosage, I quickly noticed major improvements in my overall well-being in addition to a restored sex drive, resulting in morning wood and stronger erections. I continue to take pine pollen every day to keep myself set on a healthy trajectory. I’m very pleased with the results I’ve been getting from this miracle herb and I honestly believe that it will be of great benefit for others experiencing similar stresses in any stage of their adult lives. Believe me when I say that I’d be doing a huge disservice by not sharing my experience with this review. I’m a customer for life!

Tried taking the Pine Pollen as indicated and i have had absolutely no positive results. As a matter of fact my erections have gotten way less. Hopefully i havent made the situation worst by taking this. One of my main concerns prior was maintaining an erection. Right now it is almost none existent. I went to a lab recently to Test my T Levels so hopefully i’ll have more info soon. I am very concern. I am in my early 30’s by the way. Guys please be careful what you are placing in your body. Seek medical advice.
Mike (verified owner) –
The taste somewhat reminds me of Valerian root. Smells of stinky feet, but in a little pomegranate or cranberry juice it’s down the hatch with a water chase. I was hoping it would have helped with my sleep but I think that’s a deeper problem. Yes my manhood is stronger and I think my boys have gotten bigger too. One thing though is I’ve started getting sweats, full on hot flashes where I’m drenched and then periods where I’m cold. Not sure if it’s the increase of testosterone or what, but this part is unpleasant. I can’t say whether it’s the pine pollen or if I have something else going on. I’ve also been taking the shisandra berry powder which I take in the morning. The pine pollen I take at night along with ashwaganda and murica puriens. Maybe I’m overdoing it. So like I said, can’t say what’s causing the hot flashes, could be one herb or the combination of or something totally unrelated.
Zane Christopher –
Mike I have emailed you so we can help you figure out these hot flashes. Please respond when you can. Thank you.

I tried pine pollen and was skeptical of the benefits. I use it in my morning smoothies and noticed the things down below became more “Rock Solid’ as well as seeing a boost in strength. I really could tell when I went a couple of months of not taking the supplement. I continued to lift weights and noticed I wasn’t making any gains in strength. I ordered a megadose and within two days of consuming the product, I almost doubled my reps in the gym. This is by far the best bang for the buck of supplements that I have ever tried.

Started taken Pine Pollen for the last two weeks and it works. Arousal comes quickly. Walking around with it half cocked…again
Casey Bingham (verified owner) –
I have been take the bare minimum of 1/2 tsp twice daily as a starting point and I must say I noticed a difference in the first week. I didn’t get a stimulant effect which I love, but a more overall sense of things changing. I add it to my coffee and it’s tasteless!!! A little perk in my step, a clear mind, libido actually increased (which is weird because I’ve been on HRT) I could write for days about my positive experience but won’t. I just know after a month of supplementing on it I’ll continue to use it!
I’ll also continue to buy from LOST EMPIRE because of how fast it came to my house and the packaging is top notch!! Customer for life !!

Back Order Finally Filled, Thank You! They were B.O on Pine Pollen Mega Dose, after 3 months they filled the order! Cudos for not dropping the item all together!
Carlos (verified owner) –
In love with this company! You can just taste the freshness, and see the quality by the rich texture, and color of their products. Would buy more if i could at the moment. Will come back for the mega dose! Remember, some people are really sensitive, and some aren’t. I can just TASTE the energy of the herbs (thank you for the copper tongue scraper), and while others are not so sensitive, and also we are all different, it does not mean the herb is not exerting its effect in your phisiology! You are just not sensitive enough to feel it, and not only that, it takes time for the compounds to work in your personal chemistry, and body structure as a whole. There is an old saying that says “You won’t get the effects of the herbs if you don’t take them.” And that applies to long term commitment, wich in reality is a small step in greatly advancing your personal well being. Again, just cause you don’t feel it doesn’t mean its not working! Let’s respect nature, and the gifts it has given us a bit more! We are not smarter than nature!

I want to give this full stars, but tooo be honest… it really didn’t work for me. I took the powder every day and night for a week, and no results. But one thing DID happen.
My erections disappeared.
I kid you not. Im a 25 year old male relatively healthy, was having some mild erection problems before and taking this actually NULLIFIED my boners. Now I’m not sure what happened. It could’ve been me, it could’ve been that this overloaded my T and shut off my production or whatever (although I was only taking the normal dosage). After the first few days when I finally realized it was getting worse, I kept taking it. I was pretty confident it would turn around. But instead it got worse. I could barely even maintain an erection period by the end of the week! It was almost hilarious if it wasn’t kind of scary. Has anyone else experienced this? I wasn’t going to write a review because I figured it couldn’t have been the pollen, it was just probably something about my body that didn’t like it. I purchased the tongkat ali at the same time and I could actually feel the boost from that, but still no erections. I stopped using them after that week, and you’ll be able to breathe a sigh of relief that my boners are back since then (that was about three months ago) and strong as ever, but still no morning wood which confuses me (I literally popped a random boner that would not go away before writing this lol, my body confuses the s**t out of me).
So I cant give it a 1 star because it had to be my body. But I can’t give it a 5 star cause, well, it didnt work. Just a warning to other guys out there, it may not work for you. Im gonna be buying 7 herbs and doing the 7 day cycle to see the effects, but another question Im also wondering about: am I too young to be taking these?????? Lol I think my erection probs spawn more from not exercising right now (I have to get a hernia surgery first before I can go back into the gym), and basically sitting down all day at work (not sure if I have low T I have to get that checked (but I really dont think I do). Maybe I need to take Nettle and it will help? Not sure lol. ANYWAYS MY DONG WORKS NOW LOL IM HAPPY, but its more than likely not because of regular use of the herbs (I threw away the pine pollen like an idiot instead of returning it to get my money back lol, but I just started taking the tongkat again this week and my energy levels and mood have spiked HARD). Hoping I can give the herbs a 5 star in the future!

Damn, that is really unfortunately and the first time at least that I have ever heard of this happening. Were you taking it every single day then, both the tongkat and pine pollen. I would try the tongkat without the pollen if you wanted too to narrow in on which one actually did it but that is at your own discretion. I realize not being able to get it up might dissuade any guys from further testing.
My first thought was that you just might have a completely opposite reaction to those herbs then most people. It isn’t unheard of for recreation drugs to have a completely opposite reaction then the normal outcome in some people. This may be a similar state.
Anyways, besides possible experimentation, don’t take those anymore! I will email you and get you that refund on the pine pollen as that is really shitty. What was your intentions with the herbs if I may ask? Perhaps there are better recommendations I can provide, even if we do not have something for it.
And god speed with that surgery Dami!

I have been taking pine pollen for about seven months now, along with several of your other herbs. Since that time, it has been an essential part of my recovery from a long term stressful situation (I think they call it life!). My workouts are far easier, my recovery times shorter, and my overall health is excellent. While I will be 57 in June, I am still in far better shape than most in their twenties. This, while sitting in front of a computer for much of my day! I take one teaspoon with each meal (along with Lion’s Mane, Bacopa, Nettle Root Powder, local bee pollen, and either royal jelly or plain raw honey, and horsetail. I am finishing up my last bottle of pine pollen tincture as I no longer feel it is necessary). I found the combination of the bee pollen with the pine pollen to be a very powerful force. Though many may read your claims and find them too much to believe, I think you are quite conservative with them. I consider this (as well as your other herbs which I use) to be an essential part of my diet. Thank you so much, now you only have 999 more people to dramatically impact!
Zane Christopher –
James, this is a really good review! I am overjoyed that the herbs are helping you so much! Going to move this over to the testimonial section since it seems a good review of the company. Keep up all the hard work with becoming as healthy as you can be!

Hello Mr Ajay. I presume you are indian and residing in India. If so, kindly tell the custom duty which you paid. I live in mumbai and has ordered pine pollen, pine pollen tincture and tongkat ali total USD 99.17 including shipping.
Mr Zane Christopher , kindly post the comment. My order has arrived at local distribution center and I need to know how much custom duty I will have to pay to Indian customs. To save my identity, I am writing comment from another login.

Hi logan bro, i ordered your pine polllen powder mega dose. I took it tonight a mega dose of it with a mega dose of he shou wu extract. So i took 3 tablespoons of pine pollen powder and 3 table spoons of he shou wu with warm milk and started writing this review. Its just a one off mega dose, after this i will start taking the normal dosage, I have heard that he shou wu is very yin where as pine pollen is very yang so do you think after taking a mega dose like this it will still give morning wood, or will he shou wu neutralize the effect of pine pollen and not give the morning wood, sorry just wanted to clear the doubts. i am 28 year old male by the way, any info regarding this will be helpful, cheers.
Also i wanted to know if i can take he shou wu and pine pollen powder together after meals with warm water or with milk before going to bed?
Zane Christopher –
Hi Ajay, Taking He Shou Wu with megadosing of Pine Pollen should not prevent the morning wood effect. It is very Yin but that makes it perfect for balancing something so Yang as pine pollen. You should actually experience a greater effect in health because of this then you would taking either alone.
Yes, you can take them together, it is probably easier to do this then taking separately. Warm water or milk is fine. He shou wu is good right before bed too as it will ground you. Some people find pine pollen a bit stimulating when taken at night, however. Others do not. I use to take a tablespoon of pine pollen (sometimes 3) before bed and believed it only enhanced my sleep. Just try it out and see how your sleep is. For many the morning wood effect comes through only when they eat the pollen before bed. Let me know if that answers your questions. Thanks Ajay.
kevin –
Yes Zane you are correct. My apologizes for that replay. Not all that come from China is bad. But I have now uses Pine Pollen from Surthtrival because your sending costs are to high to deliver it to Belgium (+-25euro with DHL I must pay with the import duties +-25euro=50euro. Can you not see if you can do something about that high shipping cost please? I order regularly from the USA and I pay -12 dollars for getting it here. Why 25 dollars here? Can you not see for other options please? )… and the first time I take it I feel it working but then al the days after when I take it for fitness I feel nothing. But since I’m on it I feel more balanced trough the day but for fitness it does not work. So I’m guessing that people do not feel it is that they are good balanced from themselves and then they feel it not so much and also I do not need it to take it every day to be more balanced. 3-4 times/week 5gr Pine Pollen with honey and some raw milk is all I need here. Now I’m searching for the right herb to take for fitness…
Zane Christopher –
Yeah, unfortunately, we do not have a distributor in Europe like Surthrival does. If we did then their would be no import fees. We have switched from DHL back to USPS for internationals as DHL really drops the ball.
Pine Pollens effects can become really subtle for many people, even I don’t feel it much unless I am really working out hard day-in-and-day-out. Only effect I really notice is quicker recovery then when I am not on it. I have taken it for a long time though. Another good workout herb to look into is Maral root. Eleuthero and Cordyceps are also excellent work capacity building herbs. Definitely look into those and get from where ever you can without those import duties!

Lots of claims on this board about pp raising T levels…has anyone actually done a freaking blood test to confirm that or is it “just a feeling”. Also, no one is mentioning that pp conatins epitestosterone…this is an anti-androgen that is very high in young boys until puberty hits and it plummets. In other words, it is a testosterone regulator. Epitestosterone is good for prostate issues however, since it will block the androgen receptors. There have been studies done showing that pp reduces symptoms of BPH while simultaneously reducing testosterone! Better do your research – caveat emptor.
Zane Christopher –
Please forward us the links to these studies. I have never come across them in my 5 years of research on pine pollen. We are open to any new information as we are not trying to swindle anyone even if you perceive that we are. Also, we say it will balance testosterone but do not say that this is the only reason people feel great off it. If we did then perhaps it would be a sham but just getting the nutrition from the pine pollen can have crazy results for people as well. I kindly await your references. Thank you.

I am in India and have ordered pine pollen. Can any buyer from India tell me about the custom duty to be paid when the order arrives in India. Please help.
Zane Christopher –
Unfortunately, we do not know every countries individual customs laws or duties. I am sure you can find it online somewhere though.
Johnathan (verified owner) –
This Pine pollen is amazing. It really does raise testosterone and puts your body in a more anabolic state. During the period that I used it, I noticed my voice got a lot deeper, I built more muscle almost effortlessly, my sleep quality improved, my skin looked thicker, firmer and clearer. My attitude changed a little too. I was more confident in myself and was not afraid to speak up.
Zane Christopher –
Wow, we’ve never heard of a voice change, that’s pretty crazy!

My wife and I are both in really good health, IMO…..we do not take any meds (never have), we eat healthy (low carb-high healthy fat), take some supplements, exercise regularly, have positive attitudes, work full time and are often mistaken for persons 15-20 years younger. Now, my sex life did not totally go away, but I missed the good old days of an erection on demand that was ominous and threatening (at least from my point of view!). I did try a few products that helped but did not really get me there. My wife was experiencing low libido and shared some similar feelings with me of less than grade A sex (by the way, that was from her side of the equation, well, at least she ‘say’ it was my performance! lol). Read about the benefits of pine pollen and decided to give it a try. We both began taking the minimum suggested dosage of the pine pollen, having patience, and giving it a few days to kick in. Then I read where someone said to give it a test and ingest a couple of tablespoons. So I took 1 TBL 3x per day and my wife took 1 TBL 2x per day……it only took one day!…the next day she looked at me a little funny and said she felt some twitching/energy in her privates, but assured me it was a good thing. I confessed that I had some teenage morning wood that day which felt awesome and was very profound!!!…….so in the afterglow for some great sex which followed that conversation, we looked at each other and laughed realizing we had both regained our sexual vigor from yesteryear……..and were ready for more!! Afterwards, we decided we would cut our dosage back just a little to see at what point we needed to be to maintain this rediscovered energy level. I am 67 and my wife is 66 (and she still turns heads when we go out…5’6″, 135 lbs, redhead, 38DD….yes I am a very fortunate, blessed and proud husband of 44 years). We also plan to add some nettle root to balance our hormonal levels; excess estrogen we suspect may have been the culprit that was over powered by the pine pollen. And, we also just ordered the large pouch of pine pollen so as not to run out! Enough said………….
Patrick –
I assume the Pine Pollen was good for me holistically but as far as sexual performance, I noticed nothing at all.
Thomas (verified owner) –
Tried this product for two weeks. Noticed none of the purported effects but everyone is different in their reaction to various herbs. Not surprised that that are no testosterone enhancing effects since, as another reviewer noted, there is zero medical support for boosting testosterone with pine pollen taken orally.
Zane Christopher –
Yeah, wish we had an extra $100,000 to do an initial study. I’ve been looking for someone that can actually test for androgens in the pine pollen for the last four years and so far…nothing has popped up on the radar. Believe me, we want to be as accurate as possible with what we are saying. I do not believe personally that all the androgens are destroyed in the stomachs acids as they are combined with other cofactors and minerals in the pollen.
tom –
It’s important to understand what can be backed by science and what can’t After a poster notes that testosterone is destroyed by stomach acid the proprietor says ” I believe that it can be obtained sublingually and that hormonal balancing occurs” . Belief is not science.
Zane Christopher –
It is important to know the limitations of belief in regards to science as well. You make it sound like its infallible and doesn’t change on a yearly bases. What is not know is how pure testosterone combined with cofactors in a whole form is processed by the stomach. Clearly studies show that pure testosterone is destroyed by stomach acid but no studies have been done to show that it destroys what little amount is found bound up in pine pollen. Until such studies are done then even “science” has no definitive view, just a hypothesis. Hormonal balancing can occur without testosterone as well. Gibberellins are structurally very similar to testosterone and studies have shown mimicry of it. Are those destroy by stomach acid? Who knows? Something in pine pollen has strong hormonal effects, whether they come from androgens or plant sterols does not really matter.
tom –
Did nothing. Noticed it was sourced from China so maybe that affected quality control. Noticed no effects after two week plus of using.
Zane Christopher –
Tom really sorry about that. I will respond to both your comments with a reply to your other comment on pine pollen.
Robert Perry –
All you guys who take pine pollon for the testosterone benefits are not getting any because the testosterone is destroyed by stomach acid. That is why hormone replacement in men is done by either a topical cream (like androgel) or by intramuscular injection! You might be able to get some of the benefits by taking it sublingual by placing a little under your tongue but I am not 100% sure that would work.
Zane Christopher –
While that might be true that it is destroyed in stomach acid, until more testing is done to clarify, eating pine pollen has certainly helped many guys in the sexual department. I have been taking it sublingually now for awhile and just had my blood tests done again. Course I take to many herbs to know which does what (and even then it could be more lifestyle stuff anyways), my T is increasing. I believe that it can be obtained sublingually and that hormonal balancing occurs with the pollen even if ALL the testosterone in it is destroyed in the stomach. As hormones are handled differently by digestion, the plant androgens that mimic our androgens may make it through (no studies I know of prove either way) and provide similar if not long lasting benefits that mimic testosterones.
…or its all simply placebo but I strongly doubt that.
Neil Horwitz –
Back in November I purchased pine pollen powder.. It’s been 3 weeks since I started this. I take it as soon as I wake up in the morning ..I place the powder under my tongue and down it with 8 ounces of water. I immediately get a tremendous rush of energy just in time for my morning workout.. I haven’t had this much energy as it lasts throughout the day in 60 years. I feel great and youthful as well enhances my sex drive.. I cycle this 5 days on and 2 days off .You got me sold on this and as a loyal customer.. Thank you
Dwayne (verified owner) –
I have been suffering from ED for the last 3 years. I started Mega Dosing with Pine Pollen, and have almost finished my first bag. Unfortunately for me, I have yet to experience any “morning wood” yet. I have not noticed nocturnal tumescence for probably over 10 years now. What I did notice was more night time energy and difficulty sleeping, so I started taking my doses earlier in the day.
I was hoping to experience a more rapid hormone normalization with the first bag of Pine Pollen. Because of the nutritional benefit and natural androgen effect of Pine Pollen, I have decided to purchase a second bag along with Tongkat Ali. I understand this as a second level protocol in trying to nutritionally work on improving ED. If this doesn’t have any effect, then I will proceed to adding Mucuna (when it come back in stock) to help with improving dopamine levels. I’m open to any suggestions from the Lost Empire staff to more quickly achieve my expected goal.
Zane Christopher –
Seems like you are on a good path Dwayne. Just a reminder that if none of this works for you we will refund your money in full so keep the empty bags. I usually recommend tongkat if pine pollen powder alone doesnt help and many people find that the combo of tincture and pollen works best for those over 40. You also might try the Ashwagandha tincture, maybe even before the mucuna. This stuff has definitely effected my T levels in a positive way though I know that T levels are not the end all for ED. It would at least help with the stress of ED by toning down the levels of cortisol in your system and help with getting a good nights rest.
Michael –
Who is this goon responding to these reviews? He has no idea what the fuck he’s talking about and sounds like a used car salesman. No wonder this shit didn’t work!
Zane Christopher –
Such hurtful words! I imagine that goon is me. You sound like a ’40s gangster using such words sir. Can you elaborate on exactly what I am confused about? Sorry that the pine pollen didn’t work for you. Perhaps it is your bad attitude? How did you take it? What quantities and all that? Love your email address btw.
Wayne Palmer (verified owner) –
I can’t really give a review of this product or a rating. I bought the 50 gram pack of Pine Pollen to see it worked. Didn’t work ! Have also tried some other products from organic stores here in my town. None of those worked either.
While reading some of the emails from Lost Empire,something clicked….Check the meds that I am taking. Went in hospital 4 years ago for A-FIB. They put me on a Beta Blocker.Doc’s didn’t tell me the med was a beta blocker and my life was to crazy at the time to check it out or question it…. Well needless to say I now know what is killing my Hormones, and “Morning Woody ! ”
My Doc is resistant to taking me off of it or changing it. So have to set up appointment for Cardiologist.
That is about all I can say for a review. Maybe I can get things straightened out sometime.
Zane Christopher –
Hi Wayne. That is super interested! Definitely a good catch! I know some people might have missed that one and just assumed herbs didn’t work for them. Let us know what goes on if you get off those. I am sure there is some herbs that could work as a beta-blocker that wouldn’t have such extreme side effects too if you really needed them. Not sure what they are though so you would have to do some research. If you get off it and try any herb (don’t care if its not ours) let us know the results. I’m a nerd for this kind of stuff.
Also, we can certainly refund you for that Pine Pollen since it didn’t work for you!
Kevin z. –
I do not like that herbs are coming from China. China has a bad rep with pollution so I do not get that your buying that crap from China. Switch to an other because there are many issues with China or do we think really that they can have great clean herbs with all that pollution over there? Come on wake up…
Zane Christopher –
Dude…maybe learn some more about the issue before just telling someone that has been dealing in the industry for years now how to do their jobs. Of course we would love if we could get pine pollen from somewhere on the North American continent but so far we have found only one supplier in Canada (from multiple years of looking) that is a small start up. They aren’t that established and collect pine pollen in their free time which means the price is excessive. We would have to sell a 50 gram bag for something like $100+. So right there, we have to get pine pollen from China because that’s the only place supplying it. If you have a source elsewhere please let us know!
As for other herbs, well if they have traditionally been used in Chinese medicine then their preparations need to be done right. Companies that start supplying in American for example don’t have the many hundreds of years of experience for best harvest times and especially, how best to prepare certain herbs. So again, right there if you want it done right, certain herbs will HAVE to come from China until the world heads more in an herbal direction and starts expanding supply properly elsewhere.
Finally, where we source our herbs in China is very important to us. You make it sound like the whole country is bad. Is the whole of America’s police force bad because a few cops in many different cities beat and kill black people on a seemingly frequent bases? No, certainly not. This is why we take care to source in better environments too. Not all of the country is Beijing with its smog days and lung deaths. Beijing is actually 1,650 miles from Yunnan Province where we source our pine pollen. It is a highly mountainous region with huge forests. Polluted? Perhaps by the city of Yunnan, yeah I am sure. It is a decent sized city. Does that mean the whole of the province is? No, you have to give nature more credit then that.
So why blame China for it. China’s factories and cheap goods and pollution were in large part created because of the American consumer, a consumer that wants cheapness at the price of quality. They were making herbs before we demanded they make TV’s and clothing for us. I will always prefer a traditional Chinese herb to an american version cause we stupid, we always want the cheap. Cheap is not sustainable. Paying the true cost of something is.
We don’t even get ALL of our herbs from China either…another blanket statement.
It is your opinion whether you buy items from China or not but it is a limiting belief. Get your herbs elsewhere please, live your life, and stop bothering us with your lack of erroneous ignorance.
Cliff (verified owner) –
Been on the pine pollen about 3 weeks taking 1 tablespoon twice a day, I haven’t yet noticed any change. I am 60 years old in good health, maybe will try boosting the dosage. My wife also tried it but gave her bad heart burn.
Zane Christopher –
Bad heart burn? Never heard that one, yeah don’t let her take it if that is the cause. If you don’t notice anything and stop taking it Cliff, pay attention as sometimes its easier to notice changes like a lack of sustained energy and such after getting off a herb.
Kevin Stiles (verified owner) –
I have purchased Pine Pollen Powder for other suppliers (before finding Lost Empire Herbs). I did get results from both suppliers; however, Lost Empire Herbs has a much higher quality powder than others I’ve tried. This stuff is much finer, isn’t clumpy, and practically dissolves on its own without having to be stirred. I feel as if Lost Empire Herbs has a much higher standard of quality. I tried the “morning wood” challenge with no success. There are still major benefits felt with Pine Pollen Powder, so I will continue to take it. My workouts are better and I can see muscle where I didn’t before. It also lifts my spirits and makes me feel more energetic and altogether happy. This is an excellent quality herb!

I’m 67 years old and have survived a 2004 bone marrow treatment of full body x-rating and chemo-therapy. Treatment had left me with a weak immune system and very little testosterone and libido. After living with infections after infections and no muscle mass and little sex., about 3 years ago my loving and concerned wife finally said she had have enough of my falling asleep early in the evening and never able to stay awake after dinner. It was becoming more and more difficult for us to sleep together as I was simply wasting away to quote her into a “bag of old bones”. Bumping into her nightly left her brussed and sore. My weight loss was becoming a medical concern after going from 170 lbs to 148 with no end in sight. Doctor after doctor recommended or referred various treatments and testing. I finally ended up with a doctor that identified me with nearly no testosterone. He had me on the heaviest dosage possible. With this, I saw my alterness, weight, sleep and libido begging to return. However, about 5 months ago my regular testing showed concerns about the dosing and problems in my blood condition and immune system were approaching a tipping point. I was facing having to cut back on the testosterone and begin weekly treatments to boost my immune system. It was at that point, 5 months ago I found your web site. I ordered the Tongkat Ali and Pine pollen and also the tincture, l believe.
A few months ago, my labs came back showing my blood counts in testosterone had increased to 1200 after having to cut in half the dose. This past week another round of blood tests are showing my immune system has improved where I am no longer in any need; so much that the doctors where questioning where I had gone to get their recommended treatments. I was so surprised and they were in total denial, when I told them I have been taking your immunology related herbs. I have been feeling so much better, gaining weight to were I have been consistently weighing 165ish for the last few months.
I now am taking many more of your herbs. To the point where my wife has asked about them. She is now joining me in taking Athena, Maca, Cistanehe,Kacip Fatima, Mucuna and Shilaijit. I’m taking most of these as well as your mushrooms and Nettle Root.
She has stated that she feels and acts with much more confidence and doesn’t get that beat down or sinking feeling having to look for that afternoon cup of coffee. She has been healthier and missed all the office “bugs” that staff have been passing around.
I’m hopeful that my immune system will hold, having gone from below 400 to over 740 in just a few months. If it does hold, I’ll be able to have a much need surgery to restore some functionality I lost due to a series of illnesses that occurred years ago.
Thank you so very much. Your website and staff have been so informative and helpful in trying to prioritize the herbs I should be focusing on. I really don’t know if my results would have been so dramatic had I not the chance to work with such quality and caring people.

Kenneth (verified owner) –
I first started using your products (Shilajit, Tongkat Ali, and Pine Pollen) on 5/26/15; since that time, I have tried virtually all of your herbs, except the mushrooms and cognitive enhancement ones. Present day, I use several of your herbs once a week schedule according to the teachings of Mark Wilson. I also regularly use your Ashwaganda and Pine Pollen tinctures.
I am 49 and have never felt better. I have tried many supplements over the years, but can honestly say that none of them hold a candle to the products you sell. I am thankful your company is in existence. Using your products has given me increased strength, endurance, mental focus, and increased libido. I also listen to your podcasts faithfully and read your blogs.
Your customer service is first rate and your pricing is more than reasonable in comparison to the current market. I tell everyone I can about the virtues of your company and products. I have even gotten a few of my acquaintances to make purchases. I can see that your family really believes in what they do and it’s refreshing to say the least.
Although you now go by a different name, the previous one, which I won’t mention here, suits your products to a T because that’s how they make me feel, lol
If you ever open up an East Coast branch, I would love to work there.
Thanks again for all that your company has done for me and continues to do.

This review is long overdue I’ve been a customer since the site was named superman herbs. I found that taking the pine pollen Gave me increased energy, morning wood as promised and i just felt better overall and it also works for fatigue. I Love the benefits!! A great herb to keep around with all the chemicals in the plastics ect.

I have been using this for about a month or so now… I noticed that when I take it with my work out it makes a difference… but I havent noticed the huge benefits that others are posting about… I am also taking tongkat ali… I will review that there…
I am excited for doing the tincture though next… overall I thought it was not bad but not 5 star

Hey David, how exactly is it helping your workout? Just curious. How old are you too? Other herbs certainly might help more or you could try increasing the dose size a bit and see what happens.

I have been taking this Pine Pollen for almost two years with a 4 month gap in-between. The difference I have experienced in overall energy and positivity is huge. I live in Alaska and use Pine Pollen as a tonic along with my winter supplement approach. Pine Pollen has done phenomenally with supporting my energy and feeling of well-being during dark, cold and depressing winter months. Cheers and I hope its back in stock soon!
Zane Christopher –
Nice Eric. What’s the 4-month gap? Summer? Glad its working in those dark months up there!
Lee Walker –
I’m not a user of pine pollen yet, I have a question first. I am 81 years old, have not had an erection in about five years. I have read all the reviews and the oldest person that I found was 77. Is it possible that this product can give me morning wood as it has for most others. I don’t know which size package I should order. If this works I would like the large size, if not it would be foolish to order the larger size. On the other hand if it does work I would sure like to have the larger size in my possession. You can’t believe how much I want it to work, because it has been so long since I have been able to preform. Well I’ve just talked myself into ordering the large size package. Thanks for listening to my ramblings, If you have any suggestions to give me the best chance for success, I would appreciate your help. Thanks Lee Walker Powell, TN
Zane Christopher –
Haha, well, let us know if it does work for you Lee. If that doesn’t work you can always send it back. Sometimes it can take awhile before it reaches therapeutic levels so try it for a couple weeks or more. Obviously, the morning wood thing is a good test but it not working the first couple days doesn’t mean it won’t eventually work. Remember, there is so much crap in our environment now that affects our hormones, it can take awhile before the body gets to a more normal operating level even with herbal help. These are not wonder drugs, in fact they are not drugs at all so thinking they should respond like drugs is wrong thinking. Certainly, make sure you are getting adequate sleep, nutrition (some extra saturated fat might help with sex hormone production), moving (preferably outside) and enough hydration to help along the process.
If its not working for you, or just for your own knowledge, refer to this: https://lostempireherbs.com/first-time-buyers-guide/
And it doesn’t mean other herbs won’t be better for you. Would recommend the pollen and the tincture for your age but if the powder works for you then no point in wasting money on the tincture, right?
Cheers!
Colin Muller (verified owner) –
Morning wood guaranteed. That’s what you said, but I got no morning wood. I tried your megadose pine pollen three nights in a row but no morning wood, and I found the taste so bad that it was nearly making me sick. I can tolerate the taste of tongkat ali, but pine pollen is too bad. Needless to say I stopped taking pine pollen, and I should return it for their refund.
Zane Christopher –
Please do return it, Colin. Really sorry it did not work for you. The few people that do not get morning wood from taking 3 Tablespoons of Pine Pollen before bed have other issues going on that are messing with there hormones. And thank you for the taste review 🙂 We do not want to cater to peoples’ sweet tooth in anyway haha.

Rusty (verified owner) –
I bought two 50g bags and made a tincture with one bag. My workouts have been excellent with high energy. I do have a question. Can the tincture convert in to DHT in the body?
Zane Christopher –
Imagine so. The body has an amazing ability to convert things into stuff you would rather not have it convert too. Any time you raise T levels, there is the chance that more of it will convert to DHT, cortisol, or estrogen. But by taking the tincture itself I don’t believe that would cause an increase. It would depend on what is going on in the body at the time.
Jim (verified owner) –
I think I’m the only person here who has yet to try the mega-dose of pine pollen powder, but it works well enough for me as I use it now! Thanks. I’ve been using pine pollen, both powder and tincture, for about two months now. Since then, I’ve noticed greater clarity in my thinking, general improvements in my health include better vision, energy levels, recovery times, muscle gains and fat loss, greater libido, and so on. It has truly had a positive impact on every aspect of my life. For me, it works even better when I combine it with shilajit and nettle root. While I have only been using it for two months, the results have been extraordinary and I believe are just the beginning as these gains show no sign of slowing down! While I like the products, I like the service and attitude of Lost Empire even more. It seems to me that everyone here is truly committed to delivering their promise of positively impacting lives. Thanks, Jim

Caroline –
Is pine pollen safe to take for women? What effects does it have on female hormones?
Zane Christopher –
Caroline, it is very safe for women to take! We know a lot of women that have pleasant effects with their menstrual cycle. It does this by bringing balance to their hormones. Even women can have to much estrogen from all the plastics and pollution in the environment/food/etc. Pine pollen can help deal with that extra load. It also can help booster nutritional imbalances thereby allowing the body to facilitate balanced hormonal production. This is especially important for women going through menopause!
If you try it out please let us know how it works for you in the hormone department! And thank you for the questions.

The first batch of pine pollen that I ordered was fluffy, with a great nutty taste….my 2nd order was very gritty and had a somewhat mealy taste. Although the second order may work just as well it just doesn’t taste as good…not sure if i’ll be ordering any more .
Zane Christopher –
Hi Oliver. This is probably because of the supplier switch we did. Many people forget that taking herbs is not always a pleasent taste experience. Nor should it be. Vibrant health implies hard work. If it was easy to be healthy, we would not be in a health crisis like we are with cancer and chronic disease that we are now. Part of being healthy is being uncomfortable. It makes the body and you as a person better able to adapt to stress.
On the flip side, we do have some good tasting herbs too. Ziziphus, goji berry powder, sea buckthorn powder and next month we will be releasing our Raw Black Maca powder.
If you make any smoothies you could try masking the taste by throwing it in there too.

Been using Pine powder from Lost Empire & SMen Herbs previously for nearly a year now… The new website is a lot more modern than the old site and the customer service is first rate as usual. My first order on this site was actually returned to the sender as I was traveling during the 2 week period that the mail service provider held my package (but somehow the left package note got misplaced along the way) but Lost Empire reshipped the order (to an international destination) at no additional cost after they got the package back. Have now received the items (which included the Pine pollen in their new 250g packaging rather than the round plastic tub it used to come in). I find Pine Pollen to be less extreme than the concentrated Tongkat Ali but will still give you morning wood like a teenager and provide you with the necessary hardness when you need it. It’s more mellow and easier to take on a daily basis where as Tongkat Ali taste super bitter and Thor’s Hammer really does combine all the harsh tasting herbs into a strong herbal cocktail… if you can handle the taste, your performance will be up there for sure. Top quality products at a reasonable price.

Interesting follow up especial for KKD. I posted in Feb that my muscle soreness was way down when I worked out. Well I started taking Tong Kat Ali in Sep to try to drop a few inches off my waist and to check the efficacy of the Tong Kat I stopped taking Pine Pollen. Three weeks after starting to use Tong Kat my reps in the gym were up and my weight was down. However without even thinking about my extreme soreness was back!
Fortunately I was not out of Pine Pollen so I immediately went back on it and now my reps are up and my soreness is down and I’m starting to see some outline on my abs again!
This seems like a winning combo (Tong Kat Ali and Pine Pollen) for guys over 50!
Zane Christopher –
Mark, that’s what I like to see! Nice experimentation! Forgot about pine pollens knack for tackling soreness. With all my training I’m gonna have to up it past the heaping tablespoon I take a day and see if I can train even more.
KKD –
You can take a sugar tablet and if you believe it works, then it will work. Many studies done to prove this. You know it and I know it.
Zane Christopher –
Of course, placebo is how even modern medicine works much of the time for people. That doesn’t mean you shouldn’t try things out. Plus there has been next to no science done on many herbs. Does that mean they are all snake oil because of that? No, it just means that no studies have been done to show any statistical significance to many of the traditional claims. That’s all it means. Assuming that their is no statistical significance cause a study hasn’t been done is kind of being unrealistic and in my mind, a very unscientific thing to think.
Also, I wouldn’t advise taking sugar tablets unless you can really get yourself to believe they are good for you, which would be kind of difficult with all the evidence that proves otherwise. Have you tried the herbs? We will gladly send you free samples to test them out for yourself. Email us at info@lostempireherbs.com if you care to prove yourself right but realize that believing they won’t work is also placebo and will reduce the effectiveness of any drug, not just herbs. They’ve also done studies to prove that.

I’ve tried pine pollen from other places also tincture s. Lost Empire Herbs has the best .This is according to the effects i feel I don’t know where they get their pine pollen and all herbs from but the quality and service is the best i’ve had 🙂

I recently placed an order for my third Mega Dose container of Pine Pollen. I do cycle this herb, I am not super consistent, but I try to start on it about Wednesday of every week with a morning & evening 2 table spoon dose, then on Friday I up the dose to 3 table spoons twice daily & occasionally continue that through to Saturday; I cycle off Pine pollen staring in Sunday. All I can say is wow! I have incredible wood & great sex when I do this & an increased mental clarity & an overall feeling of mental clarity & “just plain old feeling better” once I do more than 1 weekly cycle back to back. Oh, I also just eat the stuff, no mixing, no mixing it with water or anything else, just let it soak into your mouth about 3-5 minutes, chew it around some & swallow it down with a tiny amount of water – I highly recommend it!
Tony –
I was wondering if anyone has tried this, and if so what their results were. Here is what I’ve done modifying your tincture recipe…
I’ve created a ‘tweaked’ tincture out of your Pine Pollen Powder. Rather than diluting the alcohol before extracting, I used straight 190 proof Everclear for 3 weeks shaking the solution daily. Then I sucked the “Golden Juice” on top & mixed 50/50 with Collodial Silver (which I’ve been making for 15+ years), rather than water (Since I make my collodial silver out of distilled water & .9999 pure silver rods, & 32V electricity). This is my second batch of tincture I’ve made, and the first I followed your recipe. I gotta say I love the Pine Pollen, wonderful product providing me more energy, a better sense of clarity (less brain fog), and amazing morning wood. thank you. I have just completed this concoction this morning, but I’m curious if anyone else has tried this.
Thanks for everything!

I first bought a small package of pollen from Lost Empire Herbs, and was very pleased with the product. Since then I bought the Megadose size, and yesterday I ordered the pre and post workout blend. Cannot say enough about the products and service so far. Thanks!!!
Tim –
pine pollen are the best!!! and that’s my favorite pine pollen and the best i have ever !!! two thumbs up !!!
tim –
PINE POLLEN POWDER 5 STARS !!!
Elijah –
This is the good stuff. I got the megadose and still have some left, but am wanting to buy another megadose, when they get it in. I have tried and used 6-10 different brands of pine pollen and/or pine pollen tincture. I now regularly get my pine pollen from lost empire herbs. The megadose is the best deal for me, then I just use everclear and make my pown tinctures. Thanks Lost Empire Herbs for this awesome pine pollen! THis stuff will give you wood for sure and energy and staminia. Trickies part is figuring out how much you need, but I was consuming about 3 times as much as they recommend with excellent results! The only bad thing is once you run out of this stuff, your body sadly suddenly suffers, so its as if once your body gets a taste of this premium product, it needs it for top energy, power and staminia.

I am 59 years old after about a week of taking the pine pollen I stand at attention again and wife is very pleased thanks a lot lost empire herbs
John Newsome –
While I haven’t seen the improvements in energy and vitality, that is probably due to only getting 4-5 hours of sleep. But, I have seen an improvement in sexual functions, not going into details though. I’m a Type 2 diabetic and have been suffering in that area, so this is great. I plan to get the Phoenix Formula and another bag of Pine Pollen to increase my dosage to see if “things” improve even more. Give it a try if you are having bedroom troubles, at $16.95 you can’t lose.
Jack –
Can I take Shilajit, Ashwagandha and Pine Pollen & Tongkat-Ali together. I mean is there any side effect if I take all of them together for 3 months.
At present I take Shilajit & Ashwagandha 2 table each every morning.
I take shilajit with warm milk as soon I get up and Ashwagandha after breakfast with cold milk or water.
Please advise
W Howard –
The Pine Pollen is an excellent product that works with no side effects for me.
It is best mixed with cinamon and stevia and it works.
Well done folks!
Roy –

How long does it take to have a review I made and added question to be posted, and hopefully a response? I ask this because this is the 2nd time I’ve asked the question but without yet a response. The question is for my wife who is 65 years of age. I am 65 and have had some success with Pine Pollen and Tongkat Ali, with increase energy and slight improvement in the bedroom. I’m considering Nettle for the problem of frequent peeing, unless you have other suggestions
Martin –
I can vouch for some of the benefits of the pine pollen. I take half a tespoon 3 times a day each before a meal sublingually. I will redo my review after a month of regular use.
Chris –
I’ve been ordering a combination of products from Lost Empire Herbs for quite a while now and have found a combination of things that work for me.
I am a 51 year old man who is often mistaken for being around age 35-40. I have an intense daily weight lifting routine which I think goes a long way to keeping me feeling and looking pretty damn good. In spite of this, I have to be conscious of my T levels because they naturally begin to drop in men starting in their 30s. I have found a combination of products at Lost Empire Herbs that seem to help me in this area, and I have the blood test to prove it.
Prior to lifting weights in the morningI take the recommended dose of PINE POLLEN and TONGKAT ALI (ok, maybe “rounding up” a little, especially on the TONGKAT ALI) and again before bed. Additionally, I also take the NETTLE ROOT extract as recommended to help keep the estrogen level in my body in check. If I’m taking the PINE POLLEN and TONGKAT ALI to increase my T levels you’re wondering about the need for NETTLE ROOT? Simple.
If I’m pushing my body to produce considerably more T than it currently has naturally it could fight the increase in T by converting the excess to estrogen with disastrous results! I think we’ve all seen the competitive body builders who have developed gynecomastia. This is a result of their major increase T levels and the body converting the excess into estrogen (thanks for the irony, Mother Nature!). Many bodybuilders taking various steroids (including testosterone, and no judgments here so don’t flame me) inject an aromatase inhibitor to counteract this.
There is a natural, effective alternative and that is the NETTLE ROOT extract. Given my age and the level to which I’m trying to push my T (back to what’s normal for an 18 year old) I religiously take the NETTLE ROOT as directed. So far everything seems to be good.
Now, referencing back to my personal experience with blood tests, I was purposefully not taking anything at all at the time and had my blood drawn in early May of 2015. My Total T was in the mid 400 range and Free T was in the 7 range, both on the low end for my age.
At the end of July that same year, so almost 3 full months later I was retested (thyroid issues were the actual driver for the test) and my results were astounding. My Total T had jumped to just under 1200 and the Free T levels were just over 14.
My sex drive was off the charts, the progress on my weight lifting was more than I had hoped for, however my aggression was a little high, as you might imagine.
I highly recommend these three product if you’re having low T issues or are simply wanting to increase your T levels for whatever reason. For me, at least, they’ve proven to be highly effective.

The 5 stars is for the great customer service and the ease of taking this herb.
I can’t apply it to the effects of Pine Pollen Tincture, as I don’t feel anything YET.
I took this at 7:00am and it’s been an hour now and I feel my usual self.
I took 1/2 a dropper since this was my first time, but I think I’ll take a full dropper the next time.
I’m also taking the Phoenix Formula at the same time, which also has Pine Pollen in it.
Keep in mind I’m a slow reactor to medicine/drugs/herbs so it may take a few more doses.
The good thing is I have no allergic reactions.
I took both of these herbs on an empty stomach, although the Pine Pollen can be taken with food.
Again, both of these herbs was very easy to administer and the taste is not an issue.
Than again, even if it did taste bad, I’m not taking this for “good taste” I’m taking this for health issues, so taste is a non-issue for me with any herb.
I’ll report back later with any effects.
Aloha!
Ken –
I have tried quite a bit of lost empire herbs’ products and love most of them. I can’t wait until the pine pollen tincture is back in stock again and will definitely re-order. Also, i got vip promotion letter saying there is the spagyric tincture as well. When would that be available?
Mark von Kampen –
I started taking pine pollen in Dec 2015 at the suggestion of Peter Ragnar. I use to be in the Navy and did a lot of heavy lifting both on the job and in the gym. I retired from the Navy in 2003 and have been mostly doing office work since.
When ever I would go into the gym and lift I would have muscle soreness for at least 2 days if not 3 or 4 (depending on how hard I lifted). Since using pine pollen I have increased the number of sets I do in the gym by almost double and now my muscles are tight the next day but no more soreness.
The only thing I am doing differently is taking the pine pollen. 1/2 half a tsp. twice a day for two months now.
Great stuff, thanks Peter and Lost Empire Herbs!
AW –
What if the “morning wood” doesn’t work so well with our work schedule….. Can this be taken at a better time of the day to have the same effects around bedtime?
Ibrahima Sanogo –
Can we trust the products from China as natural products? I want to ear from you. Do am I paranoia?
Brandi –
Unfortunately looks like I am that small percentage that is allergic to the pine pollen. Disappointed, was looking forward to the great benefits!
Christian –
Ive tried pine pollen and its pretty awesome stuff. You just have to try it yourself. Anyways i wanted to point out that i think the conversions on here are pretty off. It said to try 3 tablespoons of pine pollen before bed in water. 3 tablespoons is 45 grams. Thats almost the whole bag? Or “At a dose of 10 grams a day (approximately 3 tablespoons)” i think the author means 3 teaspoons. This article made it very confusing. But it was full if great information.
aj –
Hi guys,
I am a new customer with yall.your pine pollen is of good qualty works well.slightly pricey than others but i understand the independent quality testing and the great education, which is very essential,takes time and money.thank you for a good product and the sincereity.
Rob –
I received a 250-gram megadose. I’ll order more before it is gone.
I made a tincture using Kentucky straight bourbon whiskey. It works great. Probably not good if you don’t like bourbon.
I am now making one with vodka.
My experience is the residual pine pollen left after filtering has significant benefits and is too valuable to discard.
My wife (62 year young) caught a cold and she took a half dropper three times over 48 hours with oil of oregano and the cold abated!
Tyron Hatcher –
Been taking pine pollen for a week now since my first order and lm happy did this stuff is the real deal the morning wood test is crazy lol very happy with the product and it’s other benifits i just orderd the mega dose and cant wait
Antonio –
I was attracted to this because of my philosophies on healthy food made the way nature intended it. I also love the idea of boosting the bodies muscles in a safe way, this is a treasure! I love the great care that Lost Empire Herbs has taken on quality, and potency. I work at a bar on the weekends, and one thing I have to do is dump large buckets of ice into the well where they keep the ice for scooping into drinks. One day while taking the pine pollen powder daily for a few weeks. I went to replenish the ice as normal, and while I was about to pour out the ice, I thought the bucket was stuck on the bar somehow so I poured very carefully. When I turned to look to my surprise, the bucket wasn’t caught on anything! I was shocked, I was so much stronger I actually believed that the large bucket must have been resting on the bar, there was no way I could be lifting it with such ease. That was from the powder, I am excited to use the tincture next time around! I truly give this 5 stars for working well for me and being healthy at the same time! Thank you Lost Empire Herbs!
daniel –
really god stuff getting morning woods constantly ha ha
Mike –
Good for a “pick me up”. Great as a pre workout supplement!
Greg Russell –
I would have to say that pine pollen is, hands down, one of the best things to happen to myself and my mother and father. It has changed their lives and mine. I no longer have the debilitating brain fog and lack of energy. I have tried numberous tonic herbs and love them all, pretty much equally, but if I could only have one, it would have to be pine pollen. It’s so well rounded as a superfood and tonic herb given it’s qualities. Even a few people I work with, one who had a cold the day I let try some, said they felt great with tons of energy after having tried pine pollen as their daily vitamin. Thank you so much Lost Empire Herbs, you’ve made a difference in my life and the loved ones I’ve shared your high quality products with. Much Love! Peace and Thank you!
Scott –
Received my order yesterday, and thought I’d try the “morning wood” test. Didn’t work. I’ll try it again tonight, and maybe tomorrow. Not sure how much I’m supposed to take on a regular basis. No dosing instructions came with the order.
Adam –
I received my pine pollen in the mail yesterday and thought I would give the megadose (that they recommended) a try. This doesn’t really prove too much for me though, as I am a healthy young adult who still gets morning wood almost every day without it. I just wanted to take this to boost my overall sexual vitality and to receive the other health benefits that come with taking this herb. so anyway, I took the dose and what do you know, I actually didn’t have morning wood for once.. however, this is probably because I had a wet dream that night! Pretty crazy considering I’ve only had a few since puberty. So in conclusion, it’s definitely doing something…
John –
Almost two weeks in and yet still waiting for results. I’m taking 2tsp Pine Pollen and 400mg of tongkat Ali. I was hoping for a noticeable change by now 🙁 ….. Reason for purchasing the herbs: sex drive and function
Brian –
The morning wood protocol didn’t work for me, but I’ve only tried it once. Maybe I’ll try it again, but in any case, I think I’ll keep taking it for the other listed benefits.
jackie –
My husband has started the Pine Pollen for his prostrate so next time he has a blood test hopefully there will be a difference.The only problem the frieght is a killer to Australia.
thanks
AJ –
Definitely feel the boost in energy during my workouts. Feel and see more results as far as muscle production. The increased “strong like bull” results aren’t a bad side effect either! Nicely done, great product.
Keith –
This stuff is great, helps get more energy, stronger morning wood. I really like this. Also gives me more energy for workouts.
John –
I ordered the 50g bag and made my own tincture as per the instructions on your website. At first, I took one eyedropper under the tongue twice a day and didn’t notice any difference. Then I doubled the dosage to two eyedroppers twice a day and still nothing. Maybe it needs something else added.
Lyle –
Im a long term high level martial artist.just turned 50 and for last year been trying all kinds of stuff from nootropics to Chinese medicine. Only two products that i feel deserve to be permanent residents are Cordryceps and pine pollen. And compared to the ants this stuff tastes great.
robert –
I took testosterone gel for a year tried to get off several times. I took pine pollen tincture the first time and new it worked haven’t taken testosterone since plenty of energy and erections.
John –
I too had little success with pine pollen before bed and morning wood. So I ran an experiment where I used a heaping teaspoon of pine pollen and a half teaspoon of shilajit in warm tea first thing in the morning and 1 hr before bed. This combo did the wood thing for me big time. I have also been adding a half teaspoon of organic olive oil for absorption. I also found that this only really works on an empty stomach. I believe the shilajit really does help the body absorb everything much better.It is a great combo that really works. I call this my testosterone smoothie: pine pollen, shilajit, green tea and olive oil. All proven to raise testosterone levels.
jose –
A few weeks back I was talking to my friend about trying test boosters. I’m 34 200 6ft with a low libido and occasional morning wood. My erections are not as hard as they were 5 years ago. He gave me a partial container of this pine pollen. Two days later I woke up to an amazing boner. I all day that day I was getting spontaneous erections. I was even getting a chub while at the urinal. I’m ordering the tall can. Thanks guys
David Carrier –
Greetings all. i have been taking Pine Pollen, Horny Goat Weed and Nettle for the last month. I am in my 60s, and was due for my regular 6 month check for PSA. A year ago it was 9.5-rather worrisome, then 6 months later it settled at 7.5, and now the only change in my life since that check is taking these herbs. It came back today at 3.5, a stunning drop, thank you Lost Empire Herbs!
Dr. Clifford N. Alford –
The myth is that this suff tastes good. It is bitter as hell! I even tried the recipe you folks gave for mixing it with honey. Either you guys have fried your taste buds from having too much of this stuff, or you did not taste it before you came up with the idea and published it. But, mixing the pine pllen and honey mixture in some goat milk worked out fairly well. My favorite so far is mixing a tablespoon of the pine pollen in a serving of anyof the Orgain organic nutritional shakes and about six ounces of water.
As to the effects of it, I have a major problem so was not surprised by the lack of “morning wood”. I did the allergy test, and was pleasantly surprised at feeling the energy move rapidly through my body. Doing the full three tablespoon megadose for the morning wood test proved to be a bit traumatic as shortly after I took it my whole body became uncomfortably hot, and I sweated like mad for about twenty minutes. The same thing happened with the two tablespoons in honey. Is this a common occurence? There are no such side effects from one tablespoon at a time.
Before getting your pine pollen, when I would urinate I either had to sit on the toilet or stand with my legs spread over it so that I could dribble into the toilet without showering the whole area. As of the morning after the megadose test, I can stand about six inches away from the toilet, and hit the back wall of the toilet with a steady stream of urine.
On the second day, I went back on your site and ordered the Phoenix formula, and signed up for email notice when you get the Shilajit resin again. Do you have any ideas when that will happen? Thanks.
Michael –
As a sufferer of ED and low testosterone, I have been searching for something to supplement my meds with something natural. I started out with the powder and did the morning wood test. It worked! It was amazing! I am now trying the tincture, to get the greater hormonal benefit. It seems to be working as well. My sexual performance has improved with the use of pine pollen. I will keep using it. I am getting my T level checked soon. It will be interesting to see the results!
Rob Lyons –
Hi Logan. I wanted to let you know what I believe pine pollen has done for me. For over 20 years I have had to use a drug to help with prostate/urine flow problems and getting up 4 or 5 times a night to pee. I have tried several times to get off the drug without success until now! After starting the pollen I noticed I wasn’t getting up as often and when I did I didn’t really have the urge to go so I tried not taking my pill before bed. I have now gone 63 nights without the pill and I average getting up less than once a night!! My urine flow isn’t perfect but I’m not going back to the drug and I sleep much better. My wife gets up more often than I do. Hahahaha. As far as morning wood goes if I take 1 heaping teaspoon twice during the day and 4 at night before bed the morning woods is great! I have recently started using the tincture as well about 4 days a week. Thanks. Sincerely, Rob
Dominic Federico –
I have one bag left of the mega dose pine pollen and have taken it nearly every night since I received my order. But, alas
no morning wood no wood at all.
The ant is awesome I have started many large projects both times I have taken it.
Paul Thompson –
Your products are truly awesome and I apologize in advance for the length of this review! I have been working out since I was 13yrs old and am currently 50. I’m happy to say that I haven’t stopped! 7 yrs ago I had an unknown medical ailment that obstructed my bladder causing me to almost die because my kidneys had grown to almost 4times its normal size due to my inability to fully empty my bladder…Neurogenic bladder was the result, as well as the “joys” of self catheterization until I could heal. Then 2yrs ago in April I was diagnosed with BPH and prostate cancer with a Gleason score of 6.
I’ve always maintained a healthy diet but after hearing that diagnoses I began to search on line for natural cure/alternatives. Then one day in an email from Rick Kaselj (one of your affiliates) he mentioned Lost Empire Herbs and pine pollen…the rest as they say is history! Literally too!! My last prostate exam in Aug 2014 all my readings were benign! My BPH levels are normal. I’ve also been taking He Shou Wu off and on for the last few months to help my kidney functions and can attest to it helping me. Also your Tong Kat Ali is the bomb and a must to complete my “needs” :-). I have no reason to blow smoke up anyone’s butt and normally I wouldn’t give a review. However I can’t ignore the positive difference in my body since taking your products considering how careful I have to be with what goes into it. Keep up the good work!
PS.I don’t know if you can see this pic or not but that’s me on the right! Taken this past sunday. cid:ACE48683-0B34-45A2-BCCE-FB3D154091A1
Mike Lawrence –
Hi, I have been using Pine Pollen for a month now and am loving the amazing results! I also love the taste. It’s like eating pine nuts. Well I took Logan’s suggestions to do the Morning Wood test so I followed his instructions, which I took 3 tablespoons before bed. Not much happened the first night but noticed some tingling in my private area. The second night I did the same amount and around 3:30 am did notice a semi hard wood! But wow on the third night of taking it I had an amazing Morning Wood that was throbbing like I was a teenager again. Now I keep getting spontaneous erections through the day. It has also given me a much fuller package and my energy level has increased. I sleep better through the night know I will wake up to morning wood poking through my shorts. I just ordered more of the Pine Pollen. This time I made sure to get more so I don’t run out. Thanks Lost Empire Herbs I’m glad I came across your site.
Cheers And Aloha
Mike
Ricky –
Skeptical I was!! But after the morning wood test, woke up at 4:30a with a good erection wasn’t a “WoW” one but good enough. I have been dealing with Low T for 4 years now and have been trying alot of natural supplements but so far this pine pollen is one of the best. Tried tongkat and it has not worked for me like tribulis has. Can you guys consider tribulis. Email me and I’ll let you know with have worked for me
FPR –
I’ve been a cycler of androgenic male hormones for several years. I do so for the anabolic benefits, but more so because it helps me recapture the sex drive of my youth. As anyone who has done exogenous hormones can tell you, when you come off, you MUST have a strong Post Cycle Therapy if you expect to put your natural production back online. I’m using this product and the tongkat ali, along with a VERY low dose of a pharma grade SERM and I feel INCREDIBLE. I may never touch another exogenous hormone again, ever. These products are the real deal. Libido and male function are at on-cycle levels still. Simply incredible.
walter Bud Karas –
I use pine pollen daily this groups knowledge base is the best I have ever seen I am sharing with all my boxing friends and will be embarking on a tour to share what they have created it works for all not just sports nutrition Keep up the great work and have a great day
Abe Heide –
I have been using pine pollen powder for two weeks now with no benefits, now I’m using pine pollen tincture for one week but so far nothing work’s for me my sex drive is all the way down, don’t know what to use.
Glenn –
Just got the Pine Pollen yesterday and tried the “Morning Wood” test. Took it at 10 pm. At 2am, woke up to, yes, a “wet dream”. At 57 with ED for 4 years and some success with Cialis, I wanted to try a more natural approach. Could not be happier!
Miro –
Pine pollen had a great effect for me as a pre-workout supplement. It didn’t help with endurance, but I did manage to lift more if I take it before a workout.
It also had a positive effect on my already very healthy sex life. Keep in mind that I am physically active 30-year-old, so there weren’t any issues to begin with. Having said that, I noticed even harder wood and the time between intercourse greatly reduced since I started taking pine pollen. Awesome stuff!
Russell –
I was taking testosterone injections, they worked in reverse. My prostate became extremely enlarged, I gained 12 lbs, and the equipment was not working very good.I quit about two months ago so the stuff is out of my system
One week of taking Pine Pollen I feel like million buck and the wood is back,volume much bigger and great work outs.
Bill B. –
I am 66 years old and have been following Pavel’s strength training methods for years. I am stronger in my 60’s than I was in my 40’s. I have been experimenting with herbs and your site seems to offer everything I need. I have been taking Pine Pollen extract for about a year now and it has helped increased my free testosterone over 100% and lowered my estradiol. I used to supplement my DHEA but I do not have to now with the Pine Pollen. This is an amazing product.
Ken LoVetere –
…yes thats right,and I’m 77yo and my libido is thru the roof. Pine Pollen really is amazing. Thanks and Merry Christmas Ken

I have always been skeptical of cultural medicine, but the research that has been done in recent years persuaded me to give some of it a try. My first order from Lost Empire Herbs was the Male Hormone Package, and it has worked so well that now I am hooked on trying new herbs. I can definitely feel the increased energy and sense of well-being in the long term, and often immediately after dosing as well.
I just tried the morningwood test the other day, and it absolutely worked. It was a useful test of my tolerance/dose, and my conclusion is to try and get in the full 10 grams per day that is recommended in the Megadose Protocol. Taking a large dose at night especially seems to help my recovery and energy the next day; it even seems to have helped the small gum infection that has been bothering me.
I highly recommend the Pine Pollen and other supplements to anyone who wants to improve their health, mental or physical. I really believe that popularizing these herbs can lead to increased happiness on a global scale. I also just want to say thank you to Lost Empire Herbs for creating such an awesome website, one that teaches with research instead of convincing with hype.

I tried the tincture, pine pollen powder, and nettle root package. I really like the results and they are definitely impressive. I am 49 years old, very active and I do exercise and eat properly. When I first tried the package I started in the morning on a empty stomach and I felt a great improvement on energy almost immediately of taking it, my mind became more focus and clear and I could feel a great amount of well being. On the same day I took a half teaspoon of the powder with a half tea spoon of needle root by afternoon with a little coffee and regained energy, tonight I took a half tea spoon of the pine pollen powder and went to bed. I did experience vivid dreams to a high level. A month passed and I still feel the same but I have to say that exercises have a good influence on the powder, they definitely help the effects. I feel so energized during the morning and so good that I don’t need to have breakfast! Manhood: Another impressive results as far as improvement on seminal liquid volume and even texture and color. Increased erections and pleasure, also increased desire and libido just a bit. I also would say that increase erections just a bit as I never had problems with erections, but my libido is not as good as when I was younger, erections still the same. To finish this review I would strong recommend this product if you want to improve your overall health and well being. It is a powerful supplement that should be tried by anyone seeking health improvement. Remarks are: Energy, Focus, A sense of well being, Men tonic. Caution: Do not abuse the tincture and always use on the same day at least one time the pine pollen powder, if you use tonight don’t abuse it due to the increased amount of mental activity and vivid dreams. May my experience help yours!! Good luck.

I tried lost empire herbs for the first time this weekend, which happened to be July 4th. As a way to kick off the party, each day I woke up and had a spoonful of Hydrilla & pine pollen. I then proceeded to drink beer for 10hrs. The following morning i woke up with zero hangover. This was three days in a row, since july 4th was on a friday. As much as we partied i would normally have a rough monday. I wasnt even a little under the weather. I attribute this to lost empire herbs

I got a sample of this with a recent order and I really liked it. In my opinion this may be the best product that lost empire sells. I plan to order get some more when I can. The idea of making a ticture out of it though sounds crazy. At the high price I wouldn’t want to waste a ingle grain of this stuff. I wonder if you could get a similar extract effect by just taking this with a shot or two of vodka, or chasing it down with a fine Northwest IPA or Pale Ale. I’d give that a try first before making any extracts.

I bought pine pollen, ant and brown shilajit, mixed them together and put the mixture in 00 capsules. I take 5 capsules in the morning and 5 capsules in the evening. I can say I wake up in the morning with an extreme erection every morning. By the way I am 67.

First I want to thank you guys for all the educational info, quite enriching, the pine pollen by it self was great, 1st day definately experienced a boost in sense of well being, strength, and even confidence, woke up next day in a hightened state of arousal as mentioned, had similar only better experience with the Pheonix formula great before and after a workout and/ or hard bike ride, very potent stuff, food of the gods!

I was skeptical about the claims. But even the first day I had tremendous energy. As far as the male benefits, the day after I took the pine pollen I woke up with morning wood that could dent a car door. I will definitely be ordering again.

I was really hoping it would. I followed the directions, and took it with water, but sorry to say I didn’t get the results I was hoping for. If someone can give me some advice to get them , I’d appreciate it. Thanks.

I bought pine pollen powder and made my own tincture using over proof Jamaican white rum. Let me tell you, that rum by itself is strong so when taking my portion I mix it with liquid vitamin B12 and let it sit under my tongue for about 60 seconds. I also am taking testosterone injections every two weeks because my level was under 100. I am 62 yrs old and I am getting excited in the shower, a mere thought of a sexual image is enough to do the trick. Needless to say I am going to continue taking pine pollen because I feel like a horny young man.

Thank you Logan I’m glad I found you I received the package with the pine pollen in it in my PO Box! Mann that stuff gave me a rush! I guess I needed it because if I didn’t need it I wouldn’t have felt the rush! I will be ordering your ant extract next! I’m a bodybuilder and seen reviews on that. I need more power I already bench press 295. Yes I found you through research and I think all your supplements are true. Lastly but surely hope to be a lasting lifelong customer thank you sir! G.G.

Love this stuff. I used to have high blood pressure and had to take metroprolol. Now, my blood pressure is normal and I am weening myself off of blood pressure medications with all their side effects. I feel stronger and my blood pressure is normal. I also gave a bag of pine pollen to a female friend who also had high blood pressure and her blood pressure normalised as well. Superb stuff.

I made a 1:4 (w/v) extract of pine pollen in 100 proof Orloff brand vodka, and extracted for approximately two weeks. At which time the batch was vacuum filtered before transfer to amber bottles. The androgen rush from this preparation was more intense than I expected or realized. I was having constant erections for the first two days at approximately 60 ml/day. My strength has improved noticeably. I do caution against teenaged males using or abusing this preparation. One can be hormonally overstimulated. I have nothing but profound respect for pine pollen now, and I am amazed that it is considered a seasonal nuisance. Thankyou Lost Empire Herbs for providing this product.
