Every year 40,000 Americans undergo peptic ulcer surgery, and 15,000 die from ulcer-related complications. It does not have to be this way!

Peptic ulcers affect about 5 million Americans each year, and more than 40,000 people annually have ulcer-related surgery. More often than not, ulcers occur as a result of an inflammation of the stomach lining called gastritis (when it is the duodenum that gets inflamed, the condition is called duodenitis). Each year, approximately 15,000 people in the US die of ulcer-related complications, the worst of which are an internal bleeding and a phenomenon called perforation. A perforation occurs when an ulcer eats a hole in the wall of the stomach or duodenum, releasing bacteria and partially digested food through the opening into the sterile abdominal cavity and causing peritonitis - an inflammation of the abdominal cavity and wall.

In analyzing the many factors thought to contribute to the formation of peptic ulcers and gastritis, many researchers have stumbled across a rather striking "coincidence". It turned out that all known risk factors for erosive/ulcerative gastric and duodenal disorders – such as smoking, excess alcohol consumption, physical and emotional stress, and unhealthy eating habits – deplete the natural antioxidant defenses of our body and cause a free radical overload. Even the much discussed Helicobacter pylori bacteria, once thought to be the main cause of peptic ulcers but now considered by many scientists to be merely a contributing factor to their formation, exacerbates the free radical overload by producing an enzyme called urease, the action of which eventually leads to the release of more free radicals, causing damage to the epithelium. As a result, the gentle, fragile mucosal lining of the stomach and duodenum becomes one of the first tissues to suffer from the damaging chain reactions induced by free radicals. Many scientists who have come across this striking fact in the course of their ulcer and gastritis research think that this is exactly the area where the real answers and solutions to the ulcers/gastritis problem are to be found.

Extra virgin pine nut oil: a time-tested natural remedy with a proven track record of healing peptic ulcers and gastritis without antibiotics or antacids

Extra virgin pine nut oil is an outstanding concentrate of powerful free radical scavengers fully capable of preventing or reversing even the strongest oxidative stress leading to gastritis and peptic ulcers. The effectiveness of extra virgin pine nut oil in peptic ulcer and gastritis treatment was specifically established in several clinical studies conducted in Russia and China. In those countries, as well as in Eastern Europe, extra virgin Siberian pine nut oil has now officially been approved as an effective peptic ulcer and gastritis remedy. As more reseach into the unique properties of this healing oil is being conducted worldwide, one rock-solid fact is confirmed again and again: extra virgin pine nut oil is an effective, time-tested and proven natural ulcer and gastritis remedy.

You made me a believer! (A testimonial from a very satisfied customer)

I had severe digestion problems since I was a child. In my twenties, I have developed chronic gastritis, and was later diagnosed with a large stomach ulcer.

My doctor performed testing for H. pylori, but I tested negative. For years, I stayed on Zantac and other acid suppressors. The pain was somewhat relieved, but I have suffered from severe, unstoppable diarrhea, and the ulcer still didn't go away.

Then someone told me about your pine nut oil. I started taking three teaspoonfuls daily, but after two weeks I did not feel any improvement. However, I decided to persevere, since I had no other options left. I also increased the dosage to five teaspoonfuls daily, taking two additional teaspoons of the oil at bedtime.

Boy, am I thankful that I did! Slowly but surely, things started to change. I kept taking the oil, and after two and a half months I asked my doctor to see if the ulcer was still there...

You should have seen the expression on his face when he saw that the ulcer was completely healed. There were no signs of gastritis, either!

You made me a believer. Thank you so much.

Obesity crisis in America: "fat-free" approach did not work. What works is the "right fats" approach!

An obesity epidemic of truly frightening proportions has taken over the United States. According to the U.S. Government data, an estimated 129.6 million of Americans, or 64 percent, are overweight or obese. A new study released by the Department of Health and Human resources (HHS) Centers for Disease Control and Prevention shows that deaths due to poor diet and physical inactivity rose by 33 percent over the past decade and may soon overtake tobacco as the leading preventable cause of death in America. Despite several decades of intense efforts to lower the incidence of obesity and promote weight loss through lowering the amounts of fat and cholesterol in our diets, obesity in America is still on the rise. Every now and then, a new "miracle" product or diet promises to solve the obesity crisis, but eventually all of them fail.

The underlying reason for this failure is a lack of understanding of the vital physiological processes behind eating, metabolism and weight management. We cannot win the battle against obesity and disrupted metabolism by ignoring the basic principles which form the foundation of how food is perceived and utilized by our bodies. Therefore, any product designed to "force" or "coerce" our bodies into losing weight (and a vast majority of them try to do just that) is doomed to fail.

The only way to boost metabolism and achieve ideal weight is to optimize the ability of our bodies to assimilate the nutrients that we need, unlocking its inherent potential to achieve healing and maintain itself in perfect working order. Adelle Davis, one of the pioneers of the movement towards healthier eating, once said: "As I see it, every day you do one of two things: build health or produce disease in yourself."

Thus, when we try to "outwit" our own body by denying it the nutrients it needs (which is the case with macronutrient-restricting low-fat and low-carb diets) or poisoning it with artificial chemicals with harmful side effects (over-the-counter appetite suppressants come to mind), we are doing nothing more than "producing disease" in ourselves. On the contrary, when we help our bodies to unlock their true self-healing and health-building potential, they naturally shed the unneeded and unsightly pounds and come back to their perfect balance of vibrant health. What's very important to understand is that this potential cannot be activated by staying away from all fats. On the contrary, health-promoting fats (as opposed to harmful synthetic fats found in processed foods) are the very keys needed to unlock this self-healing potential of our bodies and put it to maximum use.

Energizing, nutrient-dense oils: Nature's secret recipe for fitness, health and healing

Our bodies are designed to be lean and beautiful, not heavy and slow. If allowed to work without impediment in an ideal environment, they will naturally seek to regain this healthy balance. However, in our society, dominated as it is by fast food, sedentary lifestyles, and "comfort eating", bringing back this harmonious balance and achieving the ideal weight and optimum digestion is often very difficult. We need all the help we can get in order to optimize our food intake, boost our metabolism and digestion, and provide our perfectly designed bodies with all the essential nutrients they need to function to their fullest potential.

When we try to describe a perfectly functioning system, we often refer to it as a "well-oiled machine". This metaphor gives us the key to understanding one of the most important underlying principles of natural healing and healthy metabolism. To be able to achieve healing and reach its ideal weight, our body must be WELL-OILED. By that, we mean that it must be supplied with the right fats. Not only are these "good fats" essential for healthy metabolism, but they are also vital for maintaining wellness as well as for curing and preventing chronic disease such as peptic ulcers and gastritis.

Long gone are the days when we believed that all fats are bad for us. By now, we know perfectly well that instead of trying to eliminate all fats from our diet or indiscriminately reduce their consumption, we must instead concentrate on supplying our bodies with the right fats which they need to function properly. Yes, we must keep them well-oiled! Rather that denying these perfectly designed "machines" the very "lubrication" that they desperately need, we must supply them with the best-grade "performance boosters" we may find.

Extra virgin pine nut oil is not just an effective peptic ulcer and gastritis remedy, but also a powerful metabolism enhancer and an excellent overall health booster

In addition to being a uniquely potent antioxidant supplement and gastric lining healer, extra virgin pine nut oil also is an excellent natural metabolism booster and digestive aid. When ingested - either in its pure form or as part of delicious foods - this tasty oil stimulates abundant duodenal release of cholecystokinin (CCK) - a critical catalyst for proper digestion of food in the intestinal tract. CCK does this by triggering the release of digestive enzymes from the pancreas. In addition, it causes contraction of the gall bladder to deliver bile into the duodenum, and stimulates secretion of bile salts into the biliary system. In fact, its very name, cholecystokinin, means “to move the gallbladder”.

By ensuring the availability of bile salts and enzymes to properly break down large macromolecules (proteins, polysaccharides, and triglycerides) into small molecules (amino acids, monosaccharides, and fatty acids) used by our bodies as all-important “building blocks”, CCK further enhances the overall performance of our metabolic and digestive systems. This puts an end to nutrient deficiencies, which often are the underlying reason for food cravings. As a result, our body is able to assimilate more vital nutrients from the food we ingest and needs less food to satisfy its basic nutrient needs.

CCK is a substance naturally produced in the duodenum in the presence of fats and proteins. Recent studies have shown that some of us may not be able to produce sufficient quantities of it, leading to digestive disorders, overeating and weight gain. CCK also acts as a neurotransmitter which sends a "full" signal to the brain and slows the rate of stomach emptying, further enhancing the feeling of satiety.

The fact that CCK optimizes digestion and metabolism and promotes the feeling of satiety is very well researched and proven by many scientific studies^1,2,3,4,5,6. When we use extra virgin pine nut oil, we produce more CCK, digest our food better, assimilate more nutrients and feel satisfied faster. Our metabolism is optimized, and our digestive system starts performing to its fullest potential, making our body the "well-oiled lean machine" it was originally designed to be.

Three teaspoons of delicious extra virgin pine nut oil daily is all you need to heal your peptic ulcers or gastritis, boost your metabolism and optimize your digestion and nutrient assimilation

For effective healing of gastritis, peptic ulcers and other conditions related to an inflammation of the gastroduodenal lining, it is recommended to take at least 5 ml (one teaspoon) of extra virgin pine nut oil three times daily 30 to 60 minutes before a meal. For duodenal ulcers, it may be advisable to increase the dosage to 10 ml or more. Some people also find it useful to take an extra spoonful of pine nut oil at bedtime.

Sometimes, you will see an improvement in a matter of days or even hours after you begin taking pine nut oil. In other situations, it may take longer. As with any other naturopathic remedy, it is important to persevere and continue treatment until you see results. After a stable improvement is achieved, the oil may be discontinued, but it is still a good idea to take a teaspoon at least once a day to avoid ulcer recurrence and protect the gastroduodenal lining. It is also a great idea to make pine nut oil a regular part of your diet by using it in your everyday meal preparation.

If your goal is to optimize your metabolism, improve digestion and control your food intake, the recommended dosage of extra virgin pine nut oil is the same: 15 ml (three teaspoons, or one tablespoon) daily. The best way of taking the oil depends on your individual preferences. For example, you may take one teaspoon of pine nut oil with a full glass of water or fresh-squeezed juice three times daily 30 minutes before breakfast, lunch, and dinner. The oil may also be taken twice a day: half at breakfast, and the other half at lunch or dinner.

Experimentation and practical experience will be your best guides in working out a daily pine nut oil regimen that would be most effective for you. And it is also nice to know that, while working to enhance your metabolism, improve digestion and achieve your ideal weight, you will also be boosting your antioxidant status and protecting your stomach lining from inflammation-related disorders.

Another great thing about extra virgin pine nut oil is that, in addition to taking it straight by the teaspoon, you can use it in a variety of delicious and healthy recipes ranging from salad dressings and pastas to smoothies, cakes and homemade nut butters. Extra virgin pine nut oil is not just a great healer and metabolism enhancer, but also a gourmet culinary oil that can be used in your kitchen in a variety of creative ways. For example, you could use in baking and light sauteing, or as an absolutely delightful dipping oil. If desired, it can be mixed into olive oil or used instead of it on your salad or in any of your favorite dishes that call for vegetable oil. We have a special page on our site devoted to our very own favorite pine nut oil recipes.

Sea Buckthorn Oil: the Ultimate Gift of Nature

Sea Buckthorn (Hippophae Rhamnoides), also known as Seaberry, Siberian pineapple, or Alpine Sandthorn berry, is a deciduous tree or shrub naturally occurring over very large territories in Europe and Asia. Most scientists think that it originates from the Himalayan Mountains, where its natural hardiness and vigor allow it to thrive on solid rock formations around crystal-clear rivers fed from ancient glaciers, at elevations as high as 14,000 feet.

Sea Buckthorn is known in China, Russia and Europe as one of nature’s most incredible medicinal plants. Its small, bright orange berries have been cherished for centuries for their truly incredible healing, nutritive, and therapeutic qualities. The richly colored oil produced from Sea Buckthorn berries is so abundant in vitamins, antioxidants, and other healing compounds that many believe that Sea Buckthorn must have been created by some ancient plant-breeder. Sea Buckthorn berries have no match in the plant kingdom for their content of carotenoids (pro-vitamin A), tocopherols (vitamin E), phylloquinone (vitamin K), as well as other vitally important healing and health-promoting vitamins, fatty acids, and micro-elements.

Various healing and health-promoting active ingredients are contained in virtually every part of the Sea Buckthorn plant, including its seeds, leaves, and bark. However, the most potent concentrate of biologically active compounds is the rich therapeutic oil contained in the bright orange Sea Buckthorn berries.

Medicinal uses of Sea Buckthorn berry oil are well documented in Asia and Europe. Clinical tests on its medicinal uses were first initiated in Russia during the 1950s. Sea Buckthorn oil was formally listed in the Pharmacopoeia in 1977, and clinically tested in Russia and China on numerous occasions. The most important pharmacological functions attributed to Sea Buckthorn oil are anti-inflammatory, anti-microbial, analgesic, and regenerative. Based both on many centuries of traditional use, and on modern scientific research and clinical studies, Sea Buckthorn berry oil has been proven to be an amazingly effective natural remedy for all health problems related to damaged mucous membranes of the gastrointestinal tract, including the following widespread conditions:

• Mouth ulcers (also called aphthae, or canker sores)
• Sore throat and strep throat
• Esophagitis (inflammation of the esophagus) and Barrett’s esophagus
• Acid reflux (GERD)
• Recurrent, hard to treat peptic ulcers
• Ulcerative colitis (inflammation and ulceration of colon mucosa)
• Crohn’s disease
• Diverticulosis and diverticulitis

The unique therapeutic properties of Sea Buckthorn oil are explained by its almost unbelievable abundance in health-promoting bioactive components. The ripe berries of Sea Buckthorn contain more than 190 varieties of bioactive substances, of which 106 occur in the berry (fruit) oil. This number includes six different fat-soluble vitamins and vitamin-like substances, 22 fatty acids, 42 kinds of lipids and 36 kinds of flavonoids and phenols. In addition to healing canker sores, esophagitis, GERD, colitis, and other gastrointestinal inflammation- and ulceration-related disorders, Sea Buckthorn oil is also used to treat burns, skin lesions and other skin problems, including rosacea and eczema, cervical erosions, atherosclerosis, high blood pressure, etc.

Our richly colored, extra thick and ultra-fresh Sea Buckthorn oil is produced from select, highest-grade Sea Buckthorn berries grown in full conformity with USDA organic requirements in a specially designed, eco-friendly Sea Buckthorn orchard. Our Sea Buckthorn berries are picked at the peak of their biological activity and cold-processed mechanically using our proprietary technology without any chemical solvents, refined carrier oils, or carbon dioxide: nothing added, nothing taken away. The resulting oil is truly unmatched in its purity, potency, and overall quality.

Gold of pleasure (wild flax) oil combines heart-healthy omega-3 fatty acids with potent antioxidants

Another precious gem that we bring to you from the treasure chest of traditional healing oils is called Gold of pleasure oil, pressed from the seeds of an ancient plant known as Camelina Sativa, or wild flax. Just like regular flax, it is exceptionally rich (up to 45%) in heart-healthy omega-3 fatty acids. However, unlike common flax (Linum Usitatissimum) oil, it contains a unique combination of powerful antioxidants, making it very stable and resistant to oxidation. Yes, it's just as great for you as flax oil - only better!

Healthy omega-3 fats are believed to help alleviate or cure a wide array of modern diseases, especially those related to excessive blood clotting (thrombosis), high blood pressure, atherosclerosis, and chronic inflammation. Often, combining an abundant supply of omega-3 fats with natural antioxidants and balanced nutrition consisting of traditional, whole, unprocessed foods that supply all of the essential nutrients, fiber and friendly bacteria is considered to be the best prescription for cardiovascular health. According to Udo Erasmus, PhD, the author of a best-selling book "Fats that Heal, Fats that Kill", "such a program could abolish cardiovascular disease as the number one killer within a few years."⁷

Gold of pleasure oil is unique in its ability to supply our body with both omega-3 fatty acids and potent antioxidants

In recent years, extensive research and numerous clinical studies have confirmed that omega-3 fats are involved in many vital physiological processes in our bodies. It has been shown again and again that a deficit of omega-3s may cause or aggravate many serious medical problems and conditions, including thrombosis, atherosclerosis, hypertension and other cardiovascular disorders. Gold of pleasure (wild flax) oil is a uniquely rich source of alpha-linolenic acid (ALA) – the “parent” fatty acid of the omega-3 family of health-promoting essential fats.

As noted above, the seed oil of Gold of pleasure contains an exceptional amount (up to 45 per cent) of omega-3 fatty acids, as well as a unique antioxidant complex giving it an additional important advantage as an anti-inflammatory supplement. Combined with a delicious nutty flavor, this extraordinary blend of beneficial omega-3 EFAs and high oxidative stability makes Gold of pleasure oil an excellent, versatile overall source of both omega-3 fats and powerful antioxidants, including tocopherols, carotenoids, and phosphatides. At 110mg/100g, its vitamin E (tocopherol) content is among the highest of all natural tocopherol sources.

As you probably know, there are other available sources of omega-3 fatty acids (fish oils and flaxseed oil are the most popular ones), but none of them combines omega-3s with potent antioxidants such as vitamin E. On the contrary, using fish oils or flaxseed oil as omega-3 supplements may aggravate the overall free radical overload leading to artery damage. Fish oils and flaxseed oil go rancid very easily, especially when their natural antioxidants are removed by refining or distillation.

Unlike fish oils and flax oil, Gold of pleasure oil is exceptionally stable and resistant to oxidation. Not only does it not cause the formation of artery-damaging free radicals, but it actually protects the blood vessels from free radical damage by supplying our body with powerful antioxidants such as vitamin E. Combined with its abundance in omega-3 alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), these antioxidants make Gold of pleasure oil one of the most powerful natural anti-inflammatory supplements available today.

Gold of pleasure oil is the most balanced and health-promoting natural source of omega-3 fatty acids

Omega-3 fatty acid supplementation is, without doubt, an absolute must not just for those concerned with their cardiovascular health, but also for anybody who is seriously interested in long-term health maintenance and disease prevention. For quite a while, nutritionists and consumers alike were looking for a dietary source of omega-3s that would not only be abundant in these health-promoting fatty acids, but also stable and resistant to oxidation and rancidity. Gold of pleasure oil, containing an outstanding amount of omega-3 fatty acids complemented by a powerful antioxidant complex, meets these criteria perfectly.

The fatty acid composition of Gold of pleasure oil is also unique and very beneficial in terms of its health-promoting qualities. While being a rich source of ALA, the oil is highly monounsaturated, naturally supplying more than 30 percent of stable monounsaturated (oleic and gadoleic) fatty acids. This significant proportion of monounsaturates (monounsaturated olive oil forms the basis of the heart-healthy Mediterranean diet) further enhances the oxidative stability of Gold of pleasure oil, and makes it a more versatile cooking oil.

Finally, Gold of pleasure oil is relatively low in omega-6 linoleic acid, resulting in a favorable omega-3/omega-6 ratio of up to 3-to-1. This decreases the potential of the oil to stimulate the formation of less desirable series 2 prostaglandins (PGE2) while maximizing its ability to support the synthesis of health-promoting series 3 prostaglandins (PGE3).

The combination of these important advantages makes Gold of pleasure oil the most balanced and desirable source of omega-3 fatty acid supplementation. While supplying almost as much omega-3s as flax oil, it is highly stable and abundant in vitamin E and other natural antioxidants, as well as beneficial monounsaturated fatty acids. As a result, it does not promote the formation of harmful free radicals. On the contrary, it helps resist their destructive effects by providing powerful antioxidant protection. That's why we call it "the better flax"!

The delicate, pleasant taste and aroma of Gold of pleasure oil makes it an excellent salad and cooking oil. On our easy recipes page, you will find many creative ways of using Gold of pleasure oil in your kitchen.
