Via TruckerDave December 27, 2013 "Children seem to love it because of its tanginess. Pine needles are rich in Vitamin C and also bring relief to conditions such as heart disease, varicose veins, fatigue, kidney aliments, sclerosis. Pine needle tea also gives you better eyesight.
This is the perfect tea to drink during the winter months. And, before you go picking the needles off of a tree you should do a little research first. The type of tree ideal for pine tea is the White Pine.
The smaller needles tend to be sweeter but its not that much of a difference. You need to wash the needles thoroughly before making the tea. Run water over them until they are clean then put the needles in a tea pot.
How To Prepare Pine Tea
1) Cut the needles (leaves) into small pieces
2) Place one cup of the small needles in a pan.
3) Pour 3 quarts of water into pan.
4) Let the tea steep for about two hours (until the water turns brownish in color).
(video says 10-15 minutes...Tea gets stronger the longer it steeps.)
When you make tea, you want the water “HOT” but not boiling. You need to experiment with the amount of needles required and how much water is added to obtain an acceptable taste. This tea is not the best tasting but has many health benefits."
Of course, in a survival situation, it is possible to chew on pine needles and grasses, and suck out the juices. All grasses are nutritious and can help keep a person alive and healthy. This is not true of any other plant or mushrooms for example. There is no poisonous grass that AGRP is aware of, so grasses all around the world are safe to eat in a survival situation, or to be used for juicing. Wheat grass juice is an example of a live food that is packed with a powerhouse of health promoting substances.
The largest and strongest vegetarian land animals in the world eat little or nothing more than grass; cows, horses, zebras, rhinos, elephants, etc...
If the area is radiation contaminated, make sure to test the needles or grass with a sensitive pancake style Geiger Counter and to wash them thoroughly before use or ingestion. Ideally, only 'clean', radiation free pine needles are to be used.
