Key Features of Pycnogenol®

The plant extract Pycnogenol® is obtained from the bark of pine trees grown in southwestern France without the use of pesticides or herbicides. The concentrated formula is extracted through a special process without the use of chemicals, which guarantees the purity and efficacy of the active compounds contained in Pycnogenol® - procyanidins (proanthocyanidins) and bioflavonoids.

Procyanidins and bioflavonoids are phytocompounds with antioxidant, antidiabetic, neuroprotective, cardioprotective, vascular-healing, antiallergic, immunomodulatory, and antimicrobial properties. Pycnogenol owes its beneficial properties primarily to them.

In natural medicine, procyanidins and bioflavonoids are used for impaired blood circulation, varicose veins, chronic venous insufficiency, dilated and fragile capillaries, diabetic retinopathy, hypertension, accelerated skin aging, and many other conditions and diseases.

Pycnogenol® provides standardized amounts of procyanidins and bioflavonoids.

Main properties of Pycnogenol®

As we age, the inflammatory process and free radicals cause damage, affecting the health of delicate tissues.

Pycnogenol is one of the most powerful natural defenses against oxidative stress caused by free radicals. It strengthens cell membranes, stimulates the synthesis of collagen and hyaluronic acid, and helps restore tissue integrity, increase skin elasticity, and maintain the normal state of blood vessels, lung tissue, and intestinal membranes.

Clinical tests confirm that this plant extract has 20 times higher antioxidant activity than vitamin C and 50 times higher antioxidant activity than vitamin E.
