Are there any side effects?

Although uncommon, a small percentage of people are allergic to pine pollen (about 1.5%-10% of the population depending on location). Allergies are generally mild ranging from rhinoconjunctivitis to mild asthma in extremely susceptible people.

If you have any previous sensitivity to pollens, you may want to begin slowly with pine pollen, beginning with a tiny doses, until you are positive that there is no sensitivity.

What are the recommended dosages for Pine Pollen?

To Raise androgen levels:

Tincture: Full dropper 3x daily or as desired (30 drops, 1.5 ml, or 3/8 tsp 3x daily). Hold in the mouth for a minute, and then swallow. This allows more contact with the mucous membranes of the throat and esophagus and increases the amount that is taken into the blood stream.

*Because the pollen, when taken as pill or powder, must travel through the GI tract and its digestive processes, it is much less effective or raising androgen levels than the tincture.

As tonic, nutritive, and adaptogen:

Capsules: 2-3 capsules, 2-3x daily—or the equivalent of powder, in other words: 4.5-9 grams daily (Approx 1.5 to 3 tsp daily).

Are there any potential risks with other herb/drug interactions?

There are no listings in anecdotal reports of Pine Pollen powder or tincture interaction, positive or negative. However because it is a powerful phytoandrogen, those who are already consuming a pharmaceutical testosterone or DHT should avoid intake prior to consulting a medical professional for advice.
