    I know if you do a Google search, you will likely find lots of people saying ponderosa pine is toxic. If you'd like to see some other sources that describe safe and healthy edible and medicinal uses, please check the description.

      I love your humor!
      Great Video!
      I did see a study showing that pine needle tea was good for the spike protein the whole world 🌎 is experiencing 😳 😅 😫 😐
      I've got some in my tea collection right now... hope it don't kill me...😅🤣😂🤣😅

      I'd like to hear more about pine needle tea being good for the spike protein situation. I think the world could use some help! I'm still here today after having more of the tea all week!

    Extremely good point! The main difference between poison and medicine is the dosage. And the problem with some people is that they assume that if it's natural you can eat as much as you want. 😅

      Thank you! I think a lot of topics are discussed in binary ways, and more nuance would be very beneficial.

    I made a "bath tea" using the needles, epsom salt, oatmeal, and essential oil of pine. It was very relaxing and so far I'm still here!

    I often use ponderosa pine needle clusters as stir sticks for Mushroom coffee or for fishing out tea bags from my tea and then I squish up the needles and chuck them into my tea or coffee. It lends a slight pineyness to whatever I am drinking without being overwhelming.

    Tried it out, had an almost fruity smell when it was brewin', came out on the redder side, but it tastes pretty damn good actually

    This knowledge is being eraced for Holistic Purposes. We all should have been taught this long ago, just like the wild Plant Mullin, for Expecorant, and Indian Tea, Squa Tea, is very delicious and is called Settlers tea, that is green and has a pine needle look, it's absolutely delicious. Making some pine tree tea tonight, thanks man appreciate it.

    I've had ponderosa pine needle tea before it tastes great I even chew on the needles every now and then for a snack I haven't had any problems. I would be curious to know what the vitamin c content is in it though compared to other types of pine needles. I've had big sagebrush tea too and that has conflicting opinions as well Some say it's edible some say it's not. It's good to be cautious though when testing edible plants some people might have allergic reactions to them. Thanks for sharing I always enjoy your knowledge and insight. By the way I found this really neat app for your phone called picture this probably one of the best plant identification apps I have ever seen. It's helped me out a lot.

      Thank you so much! Great comment! I also wonder about the level of vitamin C compared to others, and I also think it tastes great! I haven't tried that app, but maybe I should give it a shot.

    Arborists have to separate ponderosa pine material and not compost it around cows in the various Okanagan areas. Buckley's Original formula uses pine. There are a variety of plants that will have specific uterine systems relationships, the main caution would be if you are managing fertility much like pennyroyal tea risk factors for humans. The pitch is what we want you to harvest with deer antler in the springtime and show us how that goes.

    you will get a lot more vitamin c from pine needle if you dont boil it. Vitamin c is destroyed by heat. you can also add rose hips to increase vitamin c

    I can only imagine how many pine needles a cow can eat in a day ha. Probably a few pounds of them at least lol. Im sure this would be just fine if you had scurvy and needed some vitamin c in a pinch. ha.

    I think that is terrible that you made tea from a ponderosa pine instead of a southern yellow pine. Do you think any pine would have the same benefits? I am just getting into foraging. Plants don't scare me as much as pharmaceuticals. Enjoy your videos.

    I guess you have to be careful with the advice you give out, people are real touchy about it online. Good to know that it's toxic though.
