Tincture vs powder
Pine pollen in tincture form delivers more of the hormonal benefits than powdered form. The tincture delivery method bypasses stomach acid, preventing the breakdown of the bioactive hormones. Thus, for more of the anabolic effect, the tincture is best.
However, because of the alcohol extraction, some of the vitamins, minerals and enzymes are lost, thus making the powder better as a superfood.
Directions for use
Recommended dose is 1 dropperful twice per day, cycled 5 days on, 2 days off.
Can be taken with or without food.
