With a specific emphasis on organic/wild harvested plant-based products, Live Pine has experienced high levels of success in helping people with common health ailments. Live Pine offers products in two categories: Pine Needle Oil products including PNO gelatin capsules, PNO Soap, and PNO Nano Silver Soap and Wild Plant Enzymes (WPE) drink. Clinical research has shown that Pine Needle Oil provides anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidant, anti-microbial, anti-cancer, and anti-aging properties when used regularly over time. Wild Plant Enzymes contain 100 wild plants that are fermented for two years, providing tens of thousands of “pre-digested” phyto-nutrients, vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and active enzymes. All products are FDA approved after third party toxicology tests.

Live Pine educates the public on the benefits of its Pine Oil and wild harvested plant products at its website (http://www.livepine.com) and via a number of key industry events each year including Lohas, Conscious Life Fair, and the New Living Expo. The company will be rolling out its ground-breaking anti-aging program later this summer. Currently in the beta stage, the innovative and effective approach to longevity is targeted to the (LOHAS) Lifestyles of Health and Sustainability community and has been met with tremendous success across Asia.
