How much testosterone is in Pine Pollen?
It’s estimated that 10 grams of pine pollen contains 0.8 micrograms of testosterone.
Thats 800 nanograms. That’s for the powder not the concentrated tincture.
Lets makes a guess that a dose of pine pollen tincture has 8000 nanograms. That seems reasonable.
Average male free testosterone is 300 to 1,000 nanograms per deciliter (ng/dL) of blood.
That’s one tenth of a liter so really its 3000 to 10,000 nanograms per liter & you have 7.2 liters.
So total testosterone in the blood for a 200 lb male is 21000 – 72000 nanograms.
Sublingual testosterone has a short half life possibly only four hours.
That means you will need to dose repeatedly with pine pollen tincture possibly 4x per day.
Each dose will need to be a fair amount perhaps two teaspoons absorbed under the tongue.
At that rate you may be able to get an additional 10000-20000 nanograms per day into your bloodstream.
So this is only worth it by making your own tincture. Also due to the short half life its unlikely that there will be an accumulation of testosterone over time. Its also unlikely to cause gonadal shutdown.
To be effective you will be using about a shot glass of pine pollen tincture per day.
To go into shutdown on pine pollen tincture maybe 2-3 shot glasses per day could do it over a period of time.
All of this is anecdotal. Pollen will vary in quality and testosterone levels. The extraction process will vary as will the sediment levels and strength of the tincture batches.
Certainly its worth it to buy pollen in bulk and make up large batches of tincture in multiple jars.
Its not worth it to buy small bottles of tincture and take a few small drops per day.
There is more to it though as Pine Pollen contains DHEA and a number of other androgenic substances that will enhance testosterone production by the body. Its highly likely that a shot glass per day of tincture will stimulate testosterone production in addition to the free testosterone directly introduced.
Four natural things to take instead of SARMs
1. Pine Pollen Tincture
2. Tongkat Extract
3. Colostrum
4. IGF Antler extract
Must I elaborate? Yeah OK…
Pine Pollen I have posted about before & I recently got an email with the most awesome sales copy about a new pine pollen tincture. Here’s a copy of that sales page: Pine Pollen Advert
Pine Pollen contains much more than just testosterone, including sex pheromones that make you more attractive to the ladies. DHEA prohormone is in there too.
Its nice to see some western research backing up the TCM which has used pine pollen for a very long time. Yes Pine Pollen can dramatically boost Testosterone even to the point of shutdown if you take too much.
This brings me to the next supplement which is also backed up by leading scientific research. LJ100 extract of Tongkat Ali
All the science & studies are on there. Basically the tongkat will act as a quasi PCT after using the Pine Pollen. Cycle between them four weeks each. This should keep your testosterone elevated all the time to high normal (for a young man). So us old geezers can indeed naturally have high youthful testosterone without drugs. I guess you can use both at once too if you want.
Next is colostrum
Colostrum is super calves milk basically. IGF is a large molecule that does not digest. Yet Colostrum works – go figure. There are lipo delivery options for colostrum but I don’t know that its required.
Finally an antler derived IGF tincture will do the trick sublingually.
Like Pine Pollen there is much more goodness in Antler than just IGF.
These four supplements can keep your testosterone & growth hormone levels high at any age.
PS: If you want a Number 5 I will throw in Berberine which is like an “extremely” mild cardarine. If you want to lose fat and improve cardio check it out. It is not SARM or steroid like however and will only give mild long term results. Berberine has many benefits, one of which is to activate AMPK.
AMPK reduces belly fat and combats metabolic syndrome.

Additional supplements to activate AMPK include Hesperidin and Jiaogulan or Gynostemma pentaphyllum.

How to make Pine Pollen into a potent steroidal agent
OK we are all familiar with Pine Pollen tincture. This is where the pollen is soaked in alcohol for a minimum 2 weeks and the solution is administered sublingually. Most of the solution is alcohol & the testosterone is diluted.
This is similar to how cannabis oil is made. The cannabis leaf or head is soaked in isopropylene and the resulting solution is similar to a herbal tincture – except that you dont want to be using isopropylene for a tincture. What they do next is boil the isopropylene in a pot on the stove for 1-2 hours until they have a sticky residue. That is cannabis resin & it is 80% THC. This is normally then smoked.
What I want to propose is that the Pine Pollen tincture is similarly boiled on a stove top to remove the alcohol:
A study conducted by the US Department of Agriculture’s Nutrient Data Laboratory calculated the percentage of alcohol remaining in a dish based on various cooking methods. The results are as follows:
Preparation Method and Percent of Alcohol Retained
alcohol added to boiling liquid & removed from heat: 85%
alcohol flamed: 75%
no heat, stored overnight: 70%
baked, 25 minutes, alcohol not stirred into mixture: 45%
baked/simmered, alcohol stirred into mixture:
15 minutes – 40%
30 minutes – 35%
1 hour – 25%
1.5 hours – 20%
2 hours – 10%
2.5 hours – 5%
If I boil off the alcohol in pine pollen tincture its about 80 Celsius – the same as a hot sauna – much lower than waters boiling point.
OK so you can see from above this will leave you with a greatly concentrated androgenic residue – Keep in mind that I do not know how resilient the androgens are to heat extraction & I will update this post when I find out. Basically at this point if the androgens and other nutrients are intact then you have a very potent steroid.
But I dont expect you to smoke it. The reason I thought of this is that the only effective way to absorb it is in a suppository & to do that it must be melted into cocoa butter – something that cant be done with a tincture.
You can add nettle or another herb to protect your prostate also. Suppositories are gross & I never took one until a couple of weeks back. Basically its the same as treating a hemorrhoid. It takes 1-2 seconds to stick the suppository in then you squeeze your butt for 5-10 minutes. That’s it, nothing gay, homo or fag involved. Its just a gross thing to do. Same as wiping your ass after a crap, do you dwell upon it all day? no of course not.
I use a plastic bag for hygiene then toss it out after – very simple.
Now there are a couple of questions.
Dosing? dont ask me I dont know how much androgen will be in your preparation.
Will the testosterone & other stuff survive the heat? I dont know – will try find out.
Finally will you need to cycle this – well if the stuff in it survives the heat almost certainly as it will be 20x stronger than tincture with 50-80% absorption.
So there you go a 100% legal steroid made from pine tree pollen.
UPDATE: Tried it once via suppository & will be sticking to sub-lingual. Suppositories are gross. I’m gunna reserve that for stuff with no alternative.
Testosterone has a low MOL so will easily pass through under the tongue.
Onions triple testosterone ?
Several supplements are reported as increasing testosterone by 40-50% – these include resveratrol, garlic extract, olive oil & other specific lipids and several others so one would expect that taking these supplements together would cause an even greater increase.
Pantocrine deer antler extract is also purported to substantially increase testosterone – this may be linked to IGF increasing gonad size & function.
From an older post:
Testosterone & Growth factor Tincture – daily dose
Tienchi Ginseng : 1/3 teaspoon x3 per day
Pine Pollen tincture : 1 teaspoon per day
Nettle Root : 1200 mg per day
Tribulus : 500 mg per day
Panax Ginseng : 1/4 teaspoon per day
Siberian Ginseng : 1 teaspoon x2 per day
The above formula can be taken daily indefinitely
To be cycled 3 weeks on 1 week off …
Pantocrine – deer antler extract : 4-10 droppers per day depending on your weight
OK but the two biggies are Onion Juice & Ginger extract. Onion juice has shown a 3x increase in testosterone in rats at a small dose equal to 50 ml per day for a human. Ginger extract has shown a doubling of testosterone.
By using these both the studies suggest a substantial increase in testosterone may occur. As always anti estrogenics will be required.
Testosterone DHEA & Androgens in Pine Pollen
This is a breakthrough for me – especially at 43 with andropause about to kick my ass for good.
I just found out last week that “Pine Pollen” of all things is chocked full of male sex hormones and is the most potent plant steroid (sterol)
People seem to have a couple of points of confusion :
1. YES IT IS ABSORBED – but you must use a sub-lingual tincture – mix it with alcohol, let it cure for a month, then apply under your tongue 3x per day.
2. Does it work ? What the hell do you think? It contains Testosterone, DHEA, Androsterone, Androstenedione a full spectrum of amino acids, vitamins, minerals and a bunch of other stuff.
YES IT WORKS
Ok so basically testosterone and DHEA are illegal here in New Zealand & most GP doctors are soft asses that bend over backwards to avoid physical exercise. I wouldn’t even bother with the medical BS required to get on hormone replacement here. Now I don’t have to worry about the quacks approval.
Pine Pollen is legal and abundant and best of all FREE.
LOL this is what I would like my androgen profile to look like 😉
I must add though that there are a few other herbs you want to take with this stuff. For example as you get older there is a compound SHGB that converts testosterone to oestrogen which increases with age. You will need to take Nettle Root along with your pine pollen to prevent this from happening – otherwise the increased testosterone will turn against you. But the nettle root works so its not going to be a problem.
You can also add Asian and American ginseng, Saw palmetto and tribulus.
Look for the book “Natural Testosterone Solution” for more information.
Testosterone Enhancement Stack
If you are anything like me at the age of 40 you know its make or break
time. If you don’t enact a program to slow the aging process, well its going
to be all down hill.
Any male over 40 is sure to have an interest in enhancing Testosterone
production while mitigating production of estrogens and the possibility of
prostate cancer.
There are tests your physician can perform to check for signs of prostate
cancer – and no I don’t mean a physical exam. You may want to keep that
in mind if you are following a testosterone enhancement program.
