Forest Biomass
Grows by itself, from year to year,
naturally
No fertilisers, little maintenance
Harvested all year round - steady flow
Harvesting and transport already in place
No competition with food use
Richer in bioactive compounds than annual
plants

Trees are very special plants
Live very long
Through evolution during millions of years
efficient chemical defense systems (mostly extractives)
Richer in unique, bioactive compounds than annual plants

Wood Extractives
1. Lipophilic, insoluble in water “Pitch” “Resin”
Oleoresin: resin acids, terpenes
Fats: triglycerides, fatty acids, sterols, steryl esters,
other alcohols, hydrocarbons
2. Hydrophilic, soluble in polar solvents: phenolic acids,
lignans, stilbenes, flavonoids, tannins, etc.

"Jos ei sauna, terva ja viina auta, niin tauti on kuolemaksi."
”If sauna, tar and vodka do not cure your disease, then you will die”
Suomalaisessa kansanparannuksessa terva on ollut
tärkeä rohto, jota on käytetty antiseptisenä aineena
tulehduksia vastaan niin ihmisten kuin eläintenkin vaivojen
hoitoon. Täitä hävitettiin hiuksista tervaa sisältävällä seoksella.
Tervavettä käytettiin rohtona rokkoja ja muita tartunta-
tauteja vastaan.

”Tuggkåda”Nordisk Familjebok 1892
Ett af allmogen i Dalarna till tuggning användt, af grankåda bestående njutningsmedel
Smaken är icke obehaglig, och i den finns inblandat ett stick, som erinrar om muskott
Det är sannolikt, att den kan vara gangnelig för tänderna, i flyktiga oljan är ett gift för bakterier i munhålan
Dalarnas allmoge har också vanligen sina tänder i förträffligt skick

Recent research has shown that
plant lignans have a positive
influence on the development of
breast, prostate and colon
cancer which rely specifically on
oestrogens in order to progress.
Lignans also help to maintain
good cardiovascular health and
to moderate other oestrogen-
dependent health problems
such as menopause symptoms
and osteoporosis.
