Pine Oil

Also known as Pinus sylvestris

In various cultures, pine needles were boiled to produce steam for inhalation, which helps clear nasal passages and support chests clogged with stubborn mucus. Alpha-pinenes and beta-pinenes are the key properties with those anti-inflammatory and broncodilator effects. A study published in the Journal of Clinical Biochemistry and Nutrition highlighted pine oil’s antimicrobial properties.
