Pine needle tea kills parasites. When this happens, we typically experience die-off symptoms, which could include headaches, diarrhea, increased fatigue, or vomiting. Although it may appear that you're getting worse, die-off symptoms are actually positive signs of healing.
Exactly, herbalists, homeopaths and naturopaths will tell you only a teaspoon, and if it’s a detox 1/2 a teaspoon and gradually increase after you see how body reacts. Detoxing is never fun if taking detox substance full strength. The water however not being properly boiled, watched and tested. Was a big warning sign when watching this video.
They don't look like white pine needles, and he didn't wash or remove them from the woody twiggy bits he cut them off to add to water. And you shouldn't mess with stuff like this unless you've done your homework & then some more. Someone may think to try things, without research they'll only try it once. 🤔
@@marcopolotrail actually not all pine trees are ok. For example it's not recommended to use lodge pole pine tree needles. As far as the white pine it is just personal preference as to what you like. Not sure if the white pine is better than others for the ingredients. I prefer the pinion as it has a nice mild flavor.
I heard you can’t put the needles in a tin , you end up making turpentine, you have to pour your boiling water into a glass jar and then add needles to steep for 10 min.
@@seedtheskies Im not a scientist lol, that what I heard about making this tea, Dont use steal or aluminum, use glass. I imagine It has the same effect as using a "spoon" in some concoctions, you just dont do it.
Just learning about pine needle tea recently, and it looks like you pulled correct needles from a white pine. My guess is maybe the water did not boil long enough to remove impurities of sorts and added to the taste? Spruce also works, but in general, avoid flat needles (they can be bad trees like yew, hemlock, or others that are highly toxic). Try it with younger greener needles in the spring also to mellow the taste. The more mature needles in fall/winter can definitely have a stronger taste and need a bit of sugar or honey sometimes to mellow the taste.
I think you're supposed to steep in water that has been boiled... not boil them in the water? and then did it seem like that was a lot of pine needles for one cup?
You're supposed to pour boiling water into a cup containing some line needles. Then cover the cup with aluminum foil for about 10 minutes to allow the needles to infuse the water. I drink a cup of this every night before bed and it's very relaxing.
Could have been a ponderosa pine. 3 and 2 needle groupings. The bark sort of looks like it but it's hard to tell with the quick video shot. Keep a clear container with you for drinking anything out there.
@@braveheart4740 there is a wiki page on pinus ponderosa. It goes into better detail than what I could elaborate on in at YT comment. To my knowledge, the ponderosa, which consists of a few species of tree, is harmful when consumed.
Ponderosa pine is only toxic for pregnant women (can cause a miscarriage) Other then that its very safe for medicinal use and has been used here in Oregon by the natives as far back as we have history. Its a miss understanding of the “toxicity” from the tree, that i see repeated all over the internet yet when you read about it very clear the toxicity its specific to ponderosa and in that its only toxic to pregnant women. I encourage everyone though to do your own research on things, verify what i said was true and don’t just believe it.
Hi, so help me understand. I couldn’t exactly tell which type of tree you were pulling from. Was it in eastern white pine? Because there’s nothing wrong with that. Was it the water that made you sick? Eastern white pine to you should not taste earthy or nasty. And the way you made it it would actually be sort of subtle and its flavor.
This happened to me twice! the first time i made the tea, with biological springwater and pine needles bought also in that store. First time i made it, it turned out milky-white, it tasted okay however, but after a few sips i started feeling not so good. I was sick for 2 days and after that i did not want to drink it anymore. But a friend convinced me that it is not supposed to look that way, and that i should try it again. I did, and it tasted great, also the tea was completely clear. Months have past drinking pine-needle tea without any problem. And just this morning again, it turned milky-white.. needles to say i did not drink it. But i still do NOT know what happens or why this happens! Is there anyone that has a clue? Would love to hear it!
I'm not really sure, but if the pine needles wern't always the same species you might get sick if they are Ponderosa Pine, Lodepole Pine, Norfolk Pine, Loblolly Pine, & Common Juniper. I think in his video he had Ponderosa Pine and mentioned it looking white, so maybe you got one of the bad pines. Usally White Pine Tea is pretty clear with a little tint of green. Hopefully you figure out why sometimes your tea turns milky-white!
Pine needle tea should be green. If it is white, do NOT drink it. So sad that people say "pine needle" without saying WHICH pine species. There are many species of pine. Knowing which is the difference between delicious and healthy versus deadly.
I look to these types of videos to learn and I’m finding that there are many youtubers who will post a video of something like this having never tried it before. I really think that can be dangerous with something like foraging because there’s so many plants out there that can be toxic and/or deadly. This looks like a ponderosa pine, the bark is reddish with dark black crevices. I couldn’t see the needles to well though. I love pine tea from WHITE PINE. The tips at the beginning of the year taste like Cotten candy to me, the needles have a stronger taste, still good though. I’ll make a pitcher about once a month and every time I drink it I feel amazing. You can also eat the inner cambien layer, (i collect it from fallen branches after a big storm). All of this leads to my point which is, pine needle tea can be amazing when you don’t use toxic pines. Please do your own research and look through many field guides, videos, or apps before you eat something if you’re not 100%
It was Ponderosa sure as can be, i would never leave this up, i told him too dumb to make tea, All i could think, I have spruce, Tamarac, Pine around me, had all and ot works great, I always pre wash needles, and know no person im my group ever had am issue, but like you said, if you cant Identify a tree or plant, Dont make a video 🎄🌲 simple logic,
I just made my first batches of tea from the local loblolly pine, it has a very nice flavor and I had no I'll effects. The loblolly pine has needles in bunches of 3, I read that 2, 3 and 5 needle bunches are OK but good to know to avoid ponderosa pine!
Hey there, Hope you are well, Just wanted to say that I watched the whole vid in anticipation. But you never said what got you ill; it doesn't seem like 2 sips of that brew or most brews would get you sick for over a week. Could you as a huge fluke have caught the cov? Blessings uponyyou
I've been doing some research, I may be wrong but if you want vitamin c out of pine needles, well vitamin c degrades at 30degrees Celsius. So if you're boiling it at 100°c you're only getting a fraction of the benefits
Hi, there. Today was my 1st try drinking pine needle tea. My question is, would it make a difference if the pine needles are coming from young tree? They seem to be softer and very fresh. And it really didn't have a taste maybe slightly of pine but, the water was basically clear. So where do you think it went wrong for you?
Don't go for the old grey and dry needles. Go for the fresh bright green shoots. This is best done in spring or summer when you can find green shoots. You want them to contain moisture.
Ponderosa Pine is ONLY toxic for pregnant women... it has isocupressic acid which can lead to miscarriages in pregnant women. Other then that is VERY healthy and has been consumed by the natives in Oregon going back hundreds of years.
@@joshbstevens all pine tea can cause miscarriage I believe bro... I Ireland we tell pregnant women to stay away from pine tea for that reason... still some pines are toxic and then some people may just have a negative reaction
@@cjyt6491 I would love to see that scientific proof.... the only scientific proof of it happening is from ponderosa pine because of the isocupressic acid and it’s only been PROVEN or shown to happen in pregnant cattle not humans. I haven’t seen any scientific literature on it happening in humans , but what I have seen is people repeating things that they were told with no evidence to back up the claim. Only reason I post this is because people are discouraged to used a very medicinal plant and oil because of a lack or research. Show me evidence of it happening in humans and I’ll show you evidence of it being used by the natives here since people inhabited the land I walk on without repercussion
That didn’t look like white pine to me. Does it have 5 needles to a bunch ? And it doesn’t taste bad either. Idk what species of pine that u drank but it’s definitely not white
Norwegian spruce tip tea is good. Tastes sort of like like green tea. Similar. White pine is good too. Picking the new tips on a spruce tree in the spring is really good. The new shoot off the ends of the branches then dry them. That was a long leaf pine of some kind. research your trees. There are other comments in here that say which pine trees are toxic or can make one sick. I know spruce and white pine is good. White pine is easy to identify it has clusters of 5 needles together.
I'm literally drinking a fresh brewed cup of PN tea, as I do a couple times per week. Perhaps you have a pine allergy that needs to be explored further, bc this stuff is terrific.
Okay, so next time put SIMMERED WATER not Boiling Water over pine needles because - 1) you're killing the high Vit C levels & 2) boiling water brings out the bitter terpene oils. HINT: Use honey or agave or Monk Fruit to sweeten.
yikes, im from maine, and I can DEFINITELY tell you that is NOT white pine. I can tell from a distance even, it looks way too thick. White pine is tall and wispy looking, very soft. You drank poison tea
A quick Google, and it says older needles are more bitter but some pines are poisonous incl. Norfolk, Yew and Ponderosa. Which pine tree was that by the lake shore?
he put WAY too many pine needles in that tea! lol all we have around here are lodgepole pines and there is a lot of hype about them being toxic and poisonous, which is too bad because they're EVERYWHERE.
So you aren't going to say WHY you got sick? Was it the wrong tree or what? The cluster of needles has five in a cluster, they say. Did the needles you chose have five in a cluster? If not, it wasn't an eastern white pine, they say.
From butcher's cull box, we got FREE 40 lbs of grassfed beef trim (mosty beef fat). We separated into: 10 pounds of pure cowfat chunks ( to be ground and rendered over salted water to make deepfryer oil);; 8lbs of bone/meat/fat chunks (boiled to make rich beef soup and rendered fat.) 4 pounds of prime ground steak, and tenderlion chains (makes nice hamburger patties); 8 pounds fatty hamburger meat ( for meatloaf or meatballs). 6 lbs of pure sinews (can be boiled to make soup thickener); 1lb of cow heart fat (hard); 1 lb of beef heart for soup. Cats could eat chopped boiled beef sinews? ( will give away free on craIgslist.) Bean counters are predicting 10 percent annual inflation in US, portending milions of homeless. 10 percent inflation means that stored pantry food will be the best investment of money available to most people, better than stockmarket. This understanding will empty the shelves faster. Democrat Progressives Seem to be AntiNationalist Socialists (favoring immigrants and external people). ANAZIS. Maybe they are UnNationalist Socialists, favoring global Socialism at the expense of the people of their native homeland. UNAZIS. Russian Socialists who caused the HOLODOMOR famine put up posters stating: "It is wrong to eat your own children." EMPTY SHELVES BIDEN has provoked Russia to withhold exports of fertilizers. Already, because of Biden' s increase of fuel prices, increased fertilizer prices have already stopped planting and farm production in many parts of US. AMERICAN HOLODOMOR is now foreseeable. It may be a good time to stock up and prepare. Prepare to store, spice, and consume alternative foods, such as squirrels (obtained by traps and bb guns), pigeons, dogs, cats, and burglars. Prepare for burglars by getting clean plastic buckets, and tons of pure salt, in case a burglar comes to steal your food, and his body/meat will not fit in your freezer. You can throw the whole burglar onto an open bonfire to sterilize/ cook the outside and inside before handling. Just debone the meat and pack it into plastic buckets in excess of dry salt. These sealed salted meat buckets can be buried away from premises. Now you have some fresh meat with which to barter, make meatloaf or sausage paties, or give away to the starving homeless. Or, hang whole salted burglar legs to dry in freefood shed out in front of your place, offering free food to anyone in need who stops by. Provide a sign welcoming other burglars to donate themselves as food for the needy by climbing over your fence like the last guy did. Tips: DO NOT STORE CANNED TOMATO OR PINEAPPLE PRODUCTS. THEY RUST OUT AND OOZE AND RUST ADJACENT CANS. ONLY GLASS JARS for tomato and pineapple. Store cans on a plastic grid to elevate them above moisture. Canned coffee and vacuum brick coffee lasts forever. Spagetti and white rice can last forever if protected from insects and mosture.
So sad that people say "pine needle" without saying WHICH pine species. There are many species of pine. Knowing which is the difference between delicious and healthy versus deadly.
So how are we not supposed to make pine needle tea? What did you do wrong? This video literally does nothing to help us figure out what went wrong here and what to do right.
I'd guess that you used the wrong needles, cause I grew up drinking white pine tea (and black pine tea) and it's not disgusting...it has a citrus flavor that is very pleasing.
Will it be possibility to make a shorter video please,,,, sorry there are people only click on your video for just how to make pine needle tea without poisoning themselves
looks like a pinus ponderosa some luck there, you picked probably the only non edible conifer needles i can think of off the top. almost all spruce, firs and pines are edible tho. but obvs always get confirmation before eating anything.
i think you drank the the ponderosa pine which is poisonous to play it save you need not the long needle tree species but half long ones who produce smaller pine cones like the easter white pine what is very rare to find in the northwest european area
Just found you today and subscribe because I loved your content nice drone and music. Was looking for Infor on pine needle tea.. I was seeing if there is some toxicity to them.
Ponderosa also called yellow pine, toxic yew, yew pine/buddhist pine. Some types of yew are safe, some are deadly. Norfolk island pine, aka australian pine. Semi-toxic, lodge pole, monterey pine. Anything but white pine, including cedars and firs may induce abortions that can kill the mother and paralyse her. Only give small amounts to women, and not often. Rose hips, the the weird red hard seed pods of roses are also high in vitamin c. Do not eat holly berries or red winter berries on trees. They can kill you.
Shane on you!!! What a long & terrible video! "Warning"??? WHAT Warning ⚠️ I'd be Embarrassed to put this up & False Advertising. We learned NOTHING! Only Watch You 🤢
Do you really don’t have to sweeten it. If you get younger Pineneedles the flavor will be less bitter. Older Pineneedles have more vitamin C content but I’m more bitter taste. It might be because he picked such a long needles that the nails were very old and had a more bitter taste then a younger growth needle from the end of the tree branch
Look for pine needles in bunches of 3,that is the white pine.there is higher levels of turpentine in most other types .spruce is also a viable option but white pine is the easiest to identify to a novice.it should have a almost citrus peel flavor not earthy .you are probably drinking a nasty water source.
@@CarolFeasterbock That's what thought. 5 needles for white pine and the bark matches it whereas the red pine has a rougher bark and you can see red it in.

Bean counters are predicting 10 percent annual inflation in US, portending milions of homeless. 10 percent inflation means that stored pantry food will be the best investment of money available to most people, better than stockmarket. This understanding will empty the shelves faster. Democrat Progressives Seem to be AntiNationalist Socialists (favoring immigrants and external people). ANAZIS. Maybe they are UnNationalist Socialists, favoring global Socialism at the expense of the people of their native homeland. UNAZIS. Russian Socialists who caused the HOLODOMOR famine put up posters stating: "It is wrong to eat your own children." EMPTY SHELVES BIDEN has provoked Russia to withhold exports of fertilizers. Already, because of Biden' s increase of fuel prices, increased fertilizer prices have already stopped planting and farm production in many parts of US. AMERICAN HOLODOMOR is now foreseeable. It may be a good time to stock up and prepare. Prepare to store, spice, and consume alternative foods, such as squirrels (obtained by traps and bb guns), pigeons, dogs, cats, and burglars. Prepare for burglars by getting clean plastic buckets, and tons of pure salt, in case a burglar comes to steal your food, and his body/meat will not fit in your freezer. You can throw the whole burglar onto an open bonfire to sterilize/ cook the outside and inside before handling. Just debone the meat and pack it into plastic buckets in excess of dry salt. These sealed salted meat buckets can be buried away from premises. Now you have some fresh meat with which to barter, make meatloaf or sausage paties, or give away to the starving homeless. Or, hang whole salted burglar legs to dry in freefood shed out in front of your place, offering free food to anyone in need who stops by. Provide a sign welcoming other burglars to donate themselves as food for the needy by climbing over your fence like the last guy did. Tips: DO NOT STORE CANNED TOMATO OR PINEAPPLE PRODUCTS. THEY RUST OUT AND OOZE AND RUST ADJACENT CANS. ONLY GLASS JARS for tomato and pineapple. Store cans on a plastic grid to elevate them above moisture. Canned coffee and vacuum brick coffee lasts forever. Spagetti and white rice can last forever if protected from insects and mosture.
I feed my goats pine needles for deworming.
Maby its ny omagination
BUT
your face wasnt red at the begenning of tbis clip and it was at the end
Well u really didnt say y u thought u got sick
So sad that people say "pine needle" without saying WHICH pine species. There are many species of pine. Knowing which is the difference between delicious and healthy versus deadly.
No way was that an Eastern white pine, looked to me like a red pine. Idk how thay changes the tea though
i dont know about white pine needles, but the pine needles around here have disinfectant qualities and it can flavor a tea AND make for a soap.
I wish you would have got to the point of the video. I dont have time like that to watch you have fun. People want info not a circus show
Hello. Its the lake. The government sprays the skies. It's not the pine teas. Pine teas fights the pestilence 19
So how are we not supposed to make pine needle tea? What did you do wrong? This video literally does nothing to help us figure out what went wrong here and what to do right.
Drinking white pine needle tea now and last few weeks, no problems.
I'd guess that you used the wrong needles, cause I grew up drinking white pine tea (and black pine tea) and it's not disgusting...it has a citrus flavor that is very pleasing.
Great video guys, love the drone shots!
Star anis and fennel has the same propertys
Will it be possibility to make a shorter video please,,,, sorry there are people only click on your video for just how to make pine needle tea without poisoning themselves
looks like a pinus ponderosa some luck there, you picked probably the only non edible conifer needles i can think of off the top. almost all spruce, firs and pines are edible tho. but obvs always get confirmation before eating anything.
Probably wrong pine, some pine's are toxic! I drink all the time and it's very healthy and good.
I tried spruce tea today for the first time. It’s very bitter. Just trying to trust it’s good for me. 😅
Yeah I think it might be the water
Lake water ?????
This why he got sick
I drink blue spruce and I don’t get sick
Not all Pine is safe. A few verities are not and some are difficult to tell from the safe varieties.
Totally a waste of time!!
i think you drank the the ponderosa pine which is poisonous
to play it save you need not the long needle tree species but half long ones who produce smaller pine cones like the easter white pine what is very rare to find in the northwest
european area
You should try mansanita tea it won't kill you!
I’ll have to look that one up!
@@crashoutdoors2384 there are mansanita tree here in Philippines they are found in mountain's
He used too much pine needles
He used the wrong pine needles! He used ponderosa pine which is toxic
That was not a white pine.
You have to put little sweet cactus farms blue agaue nector..
Thank you for sharing this beautiful video 😍👍 happy to join your channel 🔔
Used wayyy too much, 5 needles per cup
You live and learn that's ok.
Thanks for the waste of time.
Keep goin man were here for ya
Poop water, maybe the problem!
what's the point of the video?
But do your research first
No information whatsoever.
When you make tea of anything it should be dry!
Not so
Who here has drank either Short Leaf Pine or Loblolly Pine ?
Sick drone footage.
Thank you! Check out snow foot outdoor adventures channel For more! Link in the description
I have to agree with hockey life. The drone footage is pretty sick! Thanks for the plug! Video is awesome! Stick with tea bags though.😂😂
Your welcome bro! It’s always a pleasure collaborating with you !
Just found you today and subscribe because I loved your content nice drone and music. Was looking for Infor on pine needle tea.. I was seeing if there is some toxicity to them.
Ponderosa also called yellow pine, toxic yew, yew pine/buddhist pine. Some types of yew are safe, some are deadly. Norfolk island pine, aka australian pine. Semi-toxic, lodge pole, monterey pine.
Anything but white pine, including cedars and firs may induce abortions that can kill the mother and paralyse her. Only give small amounts to women, and not often. Rose hips, the the weird red hard seed pods of roses are also high in vitamin c. Do not eat holly berries or red winter berries on trees. They can kill you.
It looked more like a scotch pine
5 frogging minutes till you get to the point of an 8 min video. ffs man get to the point
You should steep it for much longer than you did.
That looks to be red pine .that's not what you want.
Shane on you!!! What a long & terrible video! "Warning"??? WHAT Warning ⚠️ I'd be Embarrassed to put this up & False Advertising. We learned NOTHING! Only Watch You 🤢
Your supposed to sweeten it lol
Do you really don’t have to sweeten it. If you get younger Pineneedles the flavor will be less bitter. Older Pineneedles have more vitamin C content but I’m more bitter taste. It might be because he picked such a long needles that the nails were very old and had a more bitter taste then a younger growth needle from the end of the tree branch
Look for pine needles in bunches of 3,that is the white pine.there is higher levels of turpentine in most other types .spruce is also a viable option but white pine is the easiest to identify to a novice.it should have a almost citrus peel flavor not earthy .you are probably drinking a nasty water source.
5
@@CarolFeasterbock That's what thought. 5 needles for white pine and the bark matches it whereas the red pine has a rougher bark and you can see red it in.
5 bunches is white pine!
Bunches of 3 leave it be!
@@650tonyd bunches of five drink it and thrive!
👎👎 Dumb title and video way too long 👎👎
