Pine Pollen Challenge - Real Results and Reflections

This past summer, we organized a 30-day challenge with a group of pine pollen fans. The concept was simple:

A) Commit to 30 days of taking either pine pollen powder or pine pollen tincture.

B) Start with the lowest recommended dose and gradually increase to the maximum over 4 weeks.

C) Meet weekly on Zoom to reflect on changes and share experiences.

The result was a supportive community sharing progress on their health journeys. Over the next three weeks, we’ll be publishing individual stories and reflections.

Reflection on the Pine Pollen Challenge

“I wanted to share my experience with Canadian Pine Pollen. It helped me boost natural testosterone and balance my hormones. I’m 76, 6’0”, 170 lbs, active, fit, and a fan of organic food and supplements.”

My search for a natural alternative began after my naturopath flagged my low testosterone. My options were either a daily ointment or injections every two weeks ($30 per shot). After two years of shots, I wanted a change. I started researching and found pine pollen as a potential natural booster.

I focused on pine pollen sourced from North America and found Canadian Pine Pollen Co. I used to live near a Ponderosa Pine forest and liked that Ponderosa and Lodgepole pines are the sources.

I began with Canadian Pine Pollen Co. products, adding Ponderosa powder to my coffee each morning, and stopped the shots. Within a few weeks, I noticed the benefits, then added the tincture to my routine as well.

From our weekly calls, I learned it’s beneficial to take a day or two off. I now use pine pollen powder in my coffee five days a week and tincture 3-4 days a week.

For a boost, I take half a dropper of tincture. I also tried the Gold Label pine pollen extract (a blend of Ponderosa and Lodgepole pines). Both support natural testosterone production in unique ways, with Lodgepole pine providing masculine energy and Ponderosa feminine energy.

I enjoy being free from T shots. My body now produces testosterone naturally with the support of pine pollen, and I feel healthier. After hearing others’ stories and my own experience, I believe this superfood has truly enhanced my life!
