Close to the middle of May, pine trees begin to bloom in Armkhi. During this period, people come to the resort to enjoy the beneficial properties of pine pollen.
The flowering period of the pine grove is truly stunning: the air is covered with a thin layer of yellow pollen, the ground is covered with a fluffy carpet, and pine cones open to reveal their seeds. Pines are important to forest ecosystems and play a crucial role in maintaining a healthy environment. They act as natural filters, absorbing pollution and toxic chemicals from the air and soil, as well as providing shade and habitat for a variety of wildlife, including birds, squirrels and other small animals.
Researchers have found that pine pollen is rich in vitamins, minerals, amino acids and antioxidants that can help support the immune system, balance hormones and improve overall health. Here are a few of the benefits of consuming pine pollen:
Anti-Aging Defense. Pine pollen is rich in antioxidants, especially superoxide dismutase (SOD), which helps neutralize free radicals that damage cells and tissues.
Boosts immunity. Pine pollen is a natural immunity booster because it has antibacterial and antiviral properties that help the body fight infections.
Hormone balance. Pine pollen contains phytohormones that help balance hormones in both men and women. It contains DHEA (dehydroepiandrosterone), which supports healthy testosterone levels and helps regulate estrogen levels in the body.
Anti-inflammatory benefits: pine pollen is high in flavonoids and polyphenols, which helps reduce inflammation throughout the body.
