Let customers speak for us
from 81 reviewsI was Vax injured but I'm not going into details but my situation has been helped immensely by the Eastern white pine elixir. Won't go without it now...
Since using the Lady’s Thumb tincture I no longer suffer from night sweats. My mood feels calmer and my brain fog has disappeared. I love this herbal remedy and I also love that it is inexpensive. I highly recommend it 👍👍👍💚
amazing product, Im sleeping better my head is clearer no brain fog in the mornings also my itchy skin has disappeared all in all love this product....Thankyou
This elixir is truly amazing. No more racing heartbeat, heart palpitations or shakey hands. My skin is so much clearer I have more energy and the brain fog is gone. I can't thank you enough. Definitely a lifetime customer.
We love it! My partner hasn't felt this good in 2-3yrs, in particular he has a better level of energy and breathing. I'm noticing I have more flexibility/movement and energy - I was even able to squat!! We both feel less bloated and are craving healthier foods. My skin feels really soft (not expecting this) and I just feel generally better. Our 12yr old has had improvements to her pimples and we recon her overall persona is nicer. Thank you for a great product made with love which we do recommend to others. Such a great feeling that its natural without chemicals and side effects.
Love this product. Have noticed an improvement in my sinuses and my achy joints. I also haven’t had any coughs or colds since I started taking it. I’m definitely going to keep on with it and recommend to others
I've got a new lease of life with your magic elixir. Had a horrible cough for 7 months. It's so nice not to have it anymore after 2 weeks on this product. Thank you so much.
I've suffered from pericarditis from the jab - heart and chest pain, palpitations, a very loud heartbeat, racing heart, at one stage I was hospitalised. I have tried all sorts of supplements to help, but after taking these drops my symptoms improved within a week and now I am free from pain. I'm so grateful to have healing help now. This elixir will be part of my daily life. Thanks so much.
My sons Dr suspected peri or myo... he took a couple of doses of my elixir and his symptoms went away! He now has his own bottle 💚
Mine has been amazing for my arthritis. 😊 Like totally amazing.
I wanted to wait before I posted my testimonial but previous to taking these drops I was on 6 pharma meds from adverse reactions from pf jab....I took myself off pharma meds and now only taking your elixir and vit c and was taking vit d.....I am doing really well with no side effects. I know this is not the case for everyone and I do not advise doing this yourself but I know this has worked for me.
I canceled my appointment with the specialist to have a cortisol injection in my frozen shoulder after a 2 month wait. I've had ongoing problems with it for over a year. Spent a bit on different treatments. Physio, chiropractic, acupuncture, cupping, massage.
Two weeks of the elixir, my shoulder is 95% back to normal.
No more early morning pain, not much pain at all.
I have no idea if its the reason behind my 'problems' disappearing but i do believe it is the sole reason as nothing else in my life changed except from me adding it to my body daily.
Ive told many about it and how its made my body return to its original 'normal' after a good 2 years with sudden 'not normal' problems.
This Elixir has given me relief from heart palpitations, racing heart and night sweats. When my gp was unable to find a cause, I was forced to turn to natural medicines after they told me it was just anxiety. ~ Richard
My Aunty that’s 79 has just got her 2nd bottle of juice off you.
She proudly tells me she is now off blood thinning pills with agreement of her dr.
Keep brewing mate, good stuff 👍

Eastern White Pine
Terpenes
Terpenes are a varied group of organic compounds found in many plants, particularly in conifers like Eastern White Pine (Pinus strobus). These compounds contribute to the distinct aromas of plants and flowers. Terpenes are known for their unique scents and complex structures.
Here's a quick list of some terpenes found in high percentages.
A-pinene, B-pinene, Mycrene, Germacrene-D, B-caryophyllene, B-phallandrene, Camphene, Limonene, Anticopalic Acid.
Suramin
Suramin was created by the German pharmaceutical company Bayer in 1904 from a dye called trypan blue, commonly used in laboratories for cell staining.
Trypan blue is derived from toluidine, that is, any of several isomeric bases, C14H16N2, derived from toluene. Trypan blue is so-called because it can kill trypanosomes, the parasites that cause sleeping sickness.
The compound Toluene, was first isolated in 1837 through a distillation of pine oil by Pierre Joseph Pelletier and Filip Neriusz Walter, who named it rétinnaphte.
These connections indicate the presence of suramin as a derivative of pine however it should be noted that I have not found any source showing its direct presence as a chemical compound.
Polyphenols
Polyphenols found in Pinus strobus (Eastern White Pine) encompass a range of compounds with diverse chemical structures and functions within the plant. These compounds are integral to the plant's defense mechanisms against pathogens, UV radiation, fungi, bacteria, parasites and herbivores, and they contribute to the color, taste, and overall survival of the plant.
Here are some of the polyphenols known to be present in Pinus strobus.
Flavonoids
Catechins: Belonging to the flavan-3-ol class, catechins are a type of flavonoid that contributes to the antioxidant capacity of plants. They are involved in UV filtration and have a role in plant pigmentation and cell cycle regulation.
Epicatechin: Another flavan-3-ol, similar to catechin, known for its antioxidant properties.
Taxifolin: A flavanonol that has been identified in pine species and is known for its antioxidant activity.
Quercetin: A flavonol, quercetin is a pigment that contributes to the coloration of many plants and plays a role in plant growth, flowering, and defense mechanisms against environmental stressors.
Kaempferol: Another flavonol, kaempferol contributes to the color and UV protection in plants. It is involved in modulating the activity of enzymes and signaling pathways within plant cells.
Phenolic Acids
Ferulic Acid: A hydroxycinnamic acid, ferulic acid is involved in the cross-linking of plant cell wall polymers, which contributes to the structural integrity of the plant.
Gallic Acid: As a hydroxybenzoic acid, gallic acid is involved in the defense against UV radiation and pathogens. It is a part of hydrolyzable tannins and plays a role in plant metabolism.
Stilbenes: These are typical phenolic compounds mainly found in the Pinus species, including Pinus strobus. Pinosylvin and its derivatives, such as dihydropinosylvin monomethylether (DPME) and pinosylvin monomethylether (PME)
Lignans
Secoisolariciresinol: A plant lignan involved in the defense against herbivores and pathogens. Lignans are part of the plant's secondary metabolism and contribute to the structural components through their incorporation into the cell wall.
Tannins are large polyphenolic compounds known for their ability to bind and precipitate proteins. They are classified into two main groups: hydrolyzable tannins and condensed tannins (or proanthocyanidins).
Proanthocyanidins (a type of condensed tannin): Contribute to astringency, color, and protection of the plant.
In Conclusion > These polyphenols contribute to the complex chemical ecology of Pinus strobus, affecting its interactions with the environment, other organisms, and its overall survival and fitness. Their specific roles within the plant often involve protection against abiotic and biotic stressors and participation in the plant's normal growth and development processes.
Shikimic Acid
Shikimic acid is part of the tree's metabolic processes and contributes to its defense mechanisms against pests and diseases. The presence of shikimic acid in Eastern White Pine and other plants can vary based on several factors, including the plant's age, the time of year, and environmental conditions.
Shikimic acid plays a crucial role in the shikimate pathway, which is a metabolic route fundamental for the biosynthesis of phenolic compounds, including flavonoids, tannins, and lignans, which are types of polyphenols. Thus, while shikimic acid itself is not classified as a polyphenol, it is vital for the production of a wide range of polyphenolic compounds in plants.
Vitamins & Minerals
The needles are reported to be extremely high in Vitamin C, with some sources indicating that they contain five times the amount of Vitamin C per volume compared to oranges. This makes them an excellent source of this essential vitamin.
In terms of minerals, an X-ray microanalytical study has shown that Pinus strobus needles contain silica, especially concentrated in the tips of the needles.
Enzymes
Eastern White Pine (Pinus strobus) contains various compounds with enzymatic properties, including:
- Polyphenol oxidase: An enzyme involved in the oxidation of phenolic compounds, which may contribute to the plant's antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects.
- Peroxidase: An enzyme that catalyzes the oxidation of various compounds, potentially involved in the plant's defense against pathogens and oxidative stress.
- Lipase: An enzyme that hydrolyzes lipids, potentially involved in the plant's energy metabolism and storage.
- Amylase: An enzyme that breaks down starch into simple sugars, potentially involved in the plant's carbohydrate metabolism.
- Protease: An enzyme that hydrolyzes proteins, potentially involved in the plant's defense against pathogens and protein degradation.
- Flavonoid O-glycosyltransferase: An enzyme involved in the biosynthesis of flavonoid glycosides, which may contribute to the plant's antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects.
- Terpene synthases: Enzymes involved in the biosynthesis of terpenes, which may contribute to the plant's defense against pathogens and insects.
