Hello there! I’m Pinogeny.

Today’s pine tree story that I will be sharing with you is about Pine Trees and Dieting.

Is your New Year’s resolution in 2023 ‘I am determined to go on a diet’?

Yes…

That’s my goal for this year too.

I am also determined to go on a diet.

Even young people nowadays can be diabetic too.
The reason is that there is a lot of ‘sugar’ in the food that people eat.

This is why you must be cautious when consuming carbonated drinks, sweet coffee, etc. that contain high fructose corn syrup.

You may have probably about the fact that pine needles are good antioxidants and have anti-bacterial properties as well.

It is said that it is good for arteriosclerosis, high blood pressure, and diabetes.

Why is obesity dangerous?

Obese patients are more likely to develop diabetes
and other complications than those who are non-obese.

In the case of commercially available dietary supplements,

More often than not, they come with side effects.

So much so that there have been cases where it has been referred to as ‘poison’.

Hence, researchers are looking into natural ingredients that have no side effects.

Now, you must be wondering how diet and pine trees are connected, right?

Dieters will surely love this information, I assure you.

It is because of the ‘polyphenolic antioxidant’ found in pine needle extract.

It is claimed to be beneficial for those who have “fatty liver”, a disease caused by the excessive accumulation of fat than a normal liver.

It also helps those with “diabetes”, a metabolic condition in which insulin secretion is inadequate or dysfunctional.

Findings from an ongoing study on pine needle extract's ability to combat obesity.

It was proven that pine needle extract prevented the formation of cell lipids.

It was determined that decreased the production of lipids in fat cells.

According to another paper, ‘Terpenoid’, another component of pine needles, is beneficial in addressing obesity by decreasing blood glucose and cholesterol levels.

Further research on the many ways of using pine needles to prevent excessive fat build-up will most likely be continued.

This is the best possible news for dieters, right?

We are still doing a lot of research, but I look forward to witnessing what kinds of products will be made in the future.

That ends today’s story about the pine tree

by Pinogeny, a pine tree geek!

I hope to talk more about Pine Trees in the future!
