One of the references is probably made by nuts[edit]

Regarding this citation:

This property had already been understood in Siberia, where a handful of pine nuts or a tablespoon of pine nut oil has traditionally been taken with (or instead of) a meal when food is scarce to give a feeling of satiation.[5]

I am from the very center of Siberia (Tomsk), lived in village for few years. I have never seen such usage of pine nuts or nut oil. And pine oil is actually very rarely used; 9 of 10 housekeepings don't use it at all.

We here mine solid amount of pine nuts each year, some of them are eaten, but there is no special tradition of taking them with food and no use in medicine. And everyone is using sunflower oil; rich people sometimes use olive oil, I never seen anyone cooking with pine nut oil.

Also, I consume a handful of nuts 1-4 times a month and I never noticed any noticeable feeling of satiation after them.

And this:

As a result of such studies, pine nut oil is now considered a remedy for these conditions (i.e. peptic ulcers — my comment) in both countries

I managed to get peptic ulcer (despite been eating pine nuts all my life haha); neither of three doctors ever mentioned anyting like this. Neither my unt, who tried to apply natural healing to me, ever recommended any pine products.

Conslusion: all information provided by ref [5] seems to be completely made up to me. The company is selling pine nut oil and their article looks like typical natural healing advertisement, all kook and false. If anyone is improving this page, re-check all the information carefully.
