R-Lipoic Acid is also natural accruing chemical compound scientifically found in pine needles (Red Superior pine needle oil)
Live Pine Superior Red Pine needle oil contains a unique fatty acid called pinolenic acid, a related essential fatty acid known as GLA.
The chemical components of Pinus Densiflora Pine Needles, include monoterpene hydrocarbons, such as a-pinene, 3-carene, dipentene, b-pinen, D-limonene, a-terpinene, g-terpinene, cis-b-ocimene, myrcene, camphene, sabinene, and terpinolene (Schulz et al, 1998). Other constituents include bornyl acetate, borneol, 1,8-cineole, citral terpineol, T-cadinol, T-muurolol, a-cadinol, cayophyllene, chamazulen, butyric acid, valeric acid, caproic acid, shikimic acid and isocaproic acid (Leung and Foster studie)
Scientifically known studies have shown the Terpenes natural recurring in the Pine needles from (Pinus Densiflora )aids and reduces Parasites.
Yes — that’s accurate.
Terpenes are a large group of organic compounds found in many plants, including pine needles, and they’re responsible for much of the plant’s aroma and some of its biological activity.
In Pine Needle Oil
Pine needle oil typically contains:
- α-pinene
- β-pinene
- Limonene
- Bornyl acetate
- Camphene
- Terpineol
These are all monoterpenes (or derivatives), which have been studied for:
- Antimicrobial activity
- Anti-inflammatory properties
- Insecticidal and antiparasitic effects
Parasite-related effects
- Some terpenes, particularly α-pinene and limonene, have shown in vitro (lab) activity against certain parasites, including intestinal worms and protozoa.
- Terpenes can disrupt parasite cell membranes or interfere with their metabolism, making them less able to survive.
- This doesn’t make pine needle oil a guaranteed or primary medical treatment for parasitic infections—but it explains why it has been used traditionally for cleansing and deworming
Yes — pine needle oil does have antibacterial properties.
The oil contains natural compounds like α-pinene, β-pinene, and limonene, which have been shown in lab studies to inhibit the growth of certain bacteria. These compounds can disrupt bacterial cell membranes, interfere with their metabolism, and reduce biofilm formation (which bacteria use to protect themselves).
Research has found pine needle oil to be active against some Gram-positive bacteria (like Staphylococcus aureus and Bacillus subtilis) and certain Gram-negative bacteria (like Escherichia coli), though effectiveness can vary based on the oil’s purity, the pine species, and how it’s extracted.
It also has antifungal and antiviral activity, which is why it’s sometimes used in natural cleaning solutions, skin applications, and even in traditional medicine.
1. Pine Needle Oil Shows Antibacterial Activity (In Vitro)
- Drugs.com (Oct 2024): Pine needle oil has documented antibacterial, antioxidant, antifungal, and wound-healing effects in both animal and in vitro studies. However, no human clinical trials have been conducted to date.
-
Specific In Vitro Results: Pine needle oil has been shown to inhibit common bacteria such as Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus subtilis, and Bacillus cereus, and also several fungi including Aspergillus niger and Penicillium citrinum.
Additional studies found activity against spoilage/pathogenic bacteria like Micrococcus luteus and Proteus vulgaris.
There’s also evidence the oil helps reduce microbial growth on fresh-cut produce. - Needles & Cones Across Species: A 2022 study examined essential oils from needles and cones of several pine species—P. sylvestris, P. halepensis, P. nigra, and P. mugo. Oils from cones of P. sylvestris and needles or cones of P. halepensis were notably effective against Staphylococcus aureus, Enterococcus faecalis, Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, and even Candida albicans. Some also showed synergy when combined with the antibiotic gentamicin.
2. Broader Antimicrobial Applications of Pine Oil (Not Necessarily Needle-Specific)
- Wikipedia (Pine oil entry): Pine-derived oils are used industrially as disinfectants, sanitizers, antiseptics, microbicides, and virucides. They’ve shown effectiveness against a long list of microbes including E. coli, S. aureus, Salmonella, Klebsiella, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, various influenza types, and Candida albicans, among others.
3. Key Components Behind the Antibacterial Effects
-
α-Pinene and other Terpenes: Pine needle oil commonly contains α-pinene, β-pinene, limonene, myrcene, and similar terpenes. These are widely recognized for their antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory properties.
- α-Pinene, in particular, disrupts bacterial cell integrity, inhibits respiration and ion transport, and increases membrane permeability.
-

Alkaline properties in pine needles, helps reduce over acidity in the blood and has been used successfully to relieve and aid in various internal pains, peptic ulcers, ulcerative colitis, constipation, diarrhea, and other gastrointestinal tract complaints.
