Welcome to the Dr. Burg's Healthy Keto and Interminate Fasting Podcast.

Where Dr. Burg takes you on the journey for the truth about getting healthy and losing

healthy weight.

So today I want to talk about pine oil, which is an essential oil.

Now what is an essential oil?

Well, it's not similar to vitamins that you have essential fatty acids or essential

amino acids.

And those are required because your body doesn't make them you need them from your diet.

In this sense, essential means the essence of the oil of a plant, okay?

So it's kind of like what gives it its fragrance.

So pine oil comes from the pine tree, the Christmas tree.

So they take it from the stump, the needles, the cones, the twigs, and they concentrate

it.

And it has some real interesting antimicrobial properties.

And it used to be the ingredient in pine salt, but now they took that out.

And pine salt is a disinfectant.

It's a cleaning agent.

But what I want to talk about is the pine oil that you can consume or put on your body

or inhale.

It's great for if you have dandruff or you have itchy skin, achy joints, respiratory

infection, because bacteria hate this oil.

It'll help disinfect bacteria, viruses, funguses, candida, and lime, okay?
