Pine Needle Syrup For Lung Inflammation, Bronchitis and Respiratory Ailments
Dear friends around the world,
I’ve always liked natural remedies for our health as much as possible. Unfortunately I don’t always have the time and resources to engage in natural remedies as much as I like to. I like preventative measures too. Prevention is the best. Anyways, myself not being able to engage fully in natural remedies does not stop me to share information for those who do have time and interest to do so. I would like everyone to be healthy and fit.

Here’s a simple recipe for a syrup that can be added to tea and other hot beverages or drunk on it’s own, to help ease lung inflammation and sooth symptoms associated with bronchitis, pneumonia, and other respiratory ailments.
Pine needle syrup has a fresh, minty taste, and more importantly is all-natural and easy to make at home.
Try this remedy the next time you find yourself coughing; pine needles have many health benefits, so why not make them work for you?
You’ll have no trouble preparing this basic recipe, and the effects are well worth it.
Pine Needle Syrup Recipe
Ingredients:
1/4 cup foraged pine needles
1/2 cup water

Why It Works
Pine needles are often used in tea for their anti-inflammatory benefits. But that’s not all they’re good for!
Pine needles have a whole host of health benefits, from treating benign hypertension to antibacterial qualities that can combat Candida.
Honey is also known for it’s throat-soothing qualities, and is widely used as an effective cough suppressant.
Combining the anti-inflammatory properties of pine needles with the cough suppressant abilities of honey makes an effective remedy for combating cold and flu symptoms, as well as other respiratory illnesses.
It’s just that simple!
Use this syrup in tea, hot water, or use it when using the steam remedy for clearing your sinuses and lungs. The uses for this syrup are endless, and the health benefits are very real.
