yeah….
lotsa stuff on QR
not all of it good
many claims that pine needle oil contains suramin
that is ABSOLUTELY FALSE
suramin is a totally synthetic compound
first synthesized in 1916 germany by coal chemists
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suramin
it's used for a century as a drug to treat sleeping sickness
there WAS a report out of UCSD that it had "cured" autism, but that was based on FIVE CHILDREN, one spectacularly, but the results ended up being temporary
that report has since been pulled, and the press release deleted
the guy who published it prematurely continues to work on autism
https://health.ucsd.edu/care/neurological/autism
pine needle oil has been used in traditional medicine
it contains many compounds
the most medicinally relevant are Proanthocyanidins
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pine#Food_and_nutrients
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proanthocyanidin
it also contains shikimic acid (apparently idiots confused the name with suramin)
in summation, there WERE some initially promising studies on treating autism with suramin, but the reports of success were premature
there is ZERO reported evidence of pine needle oil "curing" autism
IDK about the healing properties of pine needle tea
i DO know one thing for absolutely certain
THERE IS NO SURAMIN IN PINE NEEDLES OR ANY OTHER PLANT
IT'S A PURELY MAN-MADE CHEMICAL SYNTHESIZED FROM COAL TAR
idjit gonna believe what they want
fuck 'em
