The holidays are a time filled with joy, laughter, and gatherings spent with family and friends, but holiday parties often lead to over indulgence in food, dessert and alcohol. When the New Year rolls around, many people are left searching for a way to revamp their health, cleanse their bodies, and boost weight loss. PineNutOil.org recommends Pine Nut Oil for weight loss as the perfect solution for those looking to lose weight and revamp their health after an indulgent holiday season.
Pine Nut Oil is an all-natural aid for promoting weight loss, as it features an omega-6 fatty acid called pinolenic acid, which has been shown to reduce appetite and support weight loss. The oil contains additional polyunsaturated fatty acids, including fat-dissolving vitamins E and F, which are well-known for their increased levels of physiological and anti-acidic properties.
In addition, the oil contains phosphatidic phosphorous, which is an excellent source of phosphorous, calcium, magnesium, manganese, copper, zinc, cobalt and iodine. Amino acids, which have huge physiological value and health benefits, are also found in Pine Nut Oil.
There are several methods of using Pine Nut Oil for weight loss. For example, those wishing to use nut oil as a weight loss aid can swallow two tablespoons of nut oil three times a day, 30 minutes to one hour before intake of food. The oil can also be taken one hour before intake of food and diluted with milk (using a 1:1 ratio).
Another ideal usage of Pine Nut Oil for weight loss is to incorporate the all-natural oil into a super foods diet. The oil can be used for cooking, as an ingredient in dips, soups, sauces, spreads, and as a light salad dressing.
Besides the use of Pine Nut Oil for weight loss, it also can help in the treatment of H. Pylori, peptic ulcers, gastritis, and other ailments of the stomach and gastrointestinal tract.
The Impact of Pine Nut Oil on Woman's Health
"Our food should be medicine,
and our medicine should be food."
Abu-Ali ibn Sina Avicenna
The health of a woman and future mother is the most important aspect of modern medicine. In view of an unfavourable ecological situation, improper nutrition, and a stressful lifestyle, women increasingly more often encounter diseases caused by disruptions on the hormonal level. Diseases such as ovarian cysts, endometriosis, cervical erosion, cystic disease, and mastopathy lead to sterility and, in some circumstances, also to carcinogenesis. In addition to all this, little activity and sitting in an office result in the congestion of blood in the small pelvis of women and therefore aggravate dysfunctions of the reproductive organs.
The most important means of preventive treatment for women's health is correct nutrition and a selection of products that assist in resisting the harmful influences of the environment. This is especially pressing for pregnant women. The nutritional products that enter a pregnant woman's body include the substances used to build the child's organism. Precisely these nutritional products provide the energy that enters the organism of the mother and fetus, energy that is essential to maintain their vital activity.
In our practice, my colleagues and I, first and foremost, recommend the use of pine nut oil to women of any age.
For a very long time, pine nut oil has been considered to be a delicacy, with its pleasant taste, golden amber colour, and wonderful nutty aroma. Its nutritional and medicinal properties are in great part explained by its qualitative composition of fats, proteins, and other substances. The fat of pine nuts differs from other fats in its high content of polyunsaturated fatty acids. The oil of the pine nut is the richest source of vitamins and trace elements, whose harmonious combination gives the oil medical properties that have no analogues in their beneficial influence on a woman's organism. The oil is an essential product that should be consumed in the food of people of all ages: in the food of children, for the development of their bodies; in the food of adults, for the preservation of their youth and health.
Modern medicine considers pine nut oil to be a storage battery of vitamins and biologically active substances ideally selected and balanced by nature itself. It does an excellent job of maintaining the health of the female genital organs and assists in the normal development of the fetus during pregnancy:
Vitamin A (carotene) - has an influence on the mucous membrane of the uterus, promotes its regeneration - which is especially important in the postpartum period - and regulates the growth of the fetal organism during pregnancy.
Vitamin B2 (riboflavin) - promotes the normal course of pregnancy and childbirth, and is used to prevent the threat of an interruption of the pregnancy. Since it is an important catalyst of the processes of cellular respiration and visual perception, it intensifies the oxidation-reduction processes in the organism, participates in the formation of DNA, and promotes the processes of tissue regeneration (including the cells of the skin).
Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) - provides for the synthesis of collagen, participates in the formation and maintenance of the structure and functioning of cartilage, bones, and teeth, and influences the formation of hemoglobin and the maturation of erythrocytes. The physiological level of ascorbic acid in the organism of a pregnant woman is of great importance for the normal development of the placenta, and also for increasing the organism's resistance to infections.
Vitamin D (ergocalciferol, cholecalciferol) - participates in the regulation of calcium and phosphorus metabolism, the process of the formation of the structure of bone tissue, and is used in obstetrical practice for the prophylaxis of rickets in the fetus.
Vitamin E (tocopherol) - Vitamin E plays an indispensable role in all reproductive processes: the functioning of the sexual system, development of the fetus, the growth of the organism, and participates in the formation of milk in breastfeeding women. Its insufficiency leads to a disruption of the functions of the sexual organs, sometimes to the loss of the fetus and miscarriage.
Vitamin Bc (folic acid) - participates in the metabolism of proteins, nucleic acids, and phospholipids; it plays an important role in the development of the embryo, especially in the period of brain formation, and stimulates hemopoiesis.
From my experience, I can say that pine nut oil significantly improves the processes of healing in women with acute and chronic inflammatory diseases, and in patients in the postoperative period. In women who constantly have pine nut oil in their food allowance, chronic inflammatory diseases become aggravated by one order of magnitude less. Pine nut oil has received widespread use in the treatment of diseases of the vesical cervix (in the form of tampons and applications).
In conclusion, I would like to say that pine nut oil should be in the daily food allowance of every woman. This is an amazing and wholesome gift from nature, which is not only an exquisite delicacy, but also helps us to cope with the ailments we encounter on the road of life.

Our Unique Production Technique:
The brand name "THE RINGING PINES OF RUSSIA" stands for business integrity, decency and the highest possible quality of product. All products marketed under this brand name convey the primordial power of Nature and the warmth of our hearts. We offer:
A variety of high-quality pine products, including pine nuts and pine nut oil.
Huge plantations of pine trees grow in the Siberian taiga, said to be the ecologically purest area of the world. The virgin forest of the taiga has never been treated with any chemicals or artificial fertilisation, nor abused by agricultural machines.
Pine nuts (the seeds of the pine tree) take two years to mature, during which time the tree accumulates a huge volume of positive cosmic energy. Crops of nuts are harvested manually by people lovingly devoted to this task, working in a pleasant environment without undue haste to create unique products full of positive energy reflecting the infinite powers of Nature. Specific preparations include:
We pick only pine cones which fall naturally from the trees, thus ensuring that only ripe cones are selected. We always avoid hitting the trees to shake unripe pine cones down (as happens with some other commercial operations) -- a practice which causes the nuts to lose their healing power.
Cones are then manually shelled with the help of wooden shell-removers. Nut centres are separated from their shells using wooden rollers.
Pine nut oil and pine nut flour marketed under our brand name are obtained by the cold-pressure method, using manual wooden oil-presses.
Pine nut oil is then stored in special containers and packed in a small village near Novosibirsk by name "Kandayrovo" using unique technology to avoid any contact with metal. The whole process is strictly supervised to ensure it complies with all sanitary requirements.
Final products are placed in special packaging to prevent daylight penetration, and stored at a temperature of 0C to +5C to better preserve the product's natural components. The resulting product is a bright gold-coloured liquid with the pleasant smell of pine nuts. It is a 100% natural product with strong healing powers.
SIBERIAN PINE NUT OIL
Siberian Pine nuts (pine nuts) contain about 60% oil. They are therefore pressed to obtain Pine nut oil, which is available on the market as a very expensive gourmet cooking oil. Cold pressing in all-wooden presses is preferred to retain the nutritional properties of nuts and derive the oil of highest quality.
The Pine nut oil bearing "The Siberian Pines" brand comes exclusively from wild-harvested Siberian Pine nuts - one of the most nutritious Pine nuts in the world. In comparison, other Pine nut oils are usually pressed from the Italian pignolia Pine nuts, which are not nearly as potent and are often harvested from trees growing in plantations. Our Siberian Pine nut oil is extra virgin (100% cold pressed from freshly shelled raw Siberian Pine nuts), whereas most Pine nut oils on the market are either not cold pressed or even pressed from roasted (!) Pine nuts, which significantly decreases the oil value. Finally, "The Siberian Pines" Siberian Pine nut oil is the only one which is available on the market anywhere in the world pressed with wooden presses in accordance with traditional techniques described in Vladimir Megre's life-changing book "The Siberian Pines". In contrast, all other Pine nut oils are pressed using steel presses, which immediately degrades them (contact with steel oxidizes some of the Pine nut oil's most important ingredients such as vitamins, and is known to remove the 'life force' from the oil).
Pine nut oil has also traditionally been used in ancient Russian and European natural medicine to cure a wide array of ailments - ingested (decreasing blood pressure, boosting immune system resistance, etc.) or applied externally (a range of dermatological disorders). It is also used in expensive cosmetics.
Pine nut oil contains pinolenic acid, a polyunsaturated fatty acid, and is marketed in the U.S. as a means stimulate cell proliferation, prevent hypertension, decrease blood lipid and blood sugar, and inhibit allergic reactions.
