Mugo Pine Bud
Mugo Pine is a coniferous pine tree that regenerates degraded terrains, while subsequently acidifying the terrain beneath it so that other species can not grow. To the Vikings, the resin of the Mugo Pine was made into a ceremonial drink for fortifying health and vigor before their long exploits. The pineol contained within Mugo Pines needles both stimulates and fortifies the defenses against invading bacteria and viruses. The main actions of Mugo Pine however are to regenerate bone and cartilage through the chondrocyte stimulant actions on the osteo-articular sphere. This makes it an excellent remedy for the treatment of senile fractures and bone consolidation and osteoporosis.
