Pycnogenol
Pycnogenol® is a natural plant extract derived from the bark of the French maritime pine tree. Benefits of Pycnogenol® are the result of four different properties: it's a powerful antioxidant that fights cell-damaging free radicals; it acts as a natural anti-inflammatory; it binds to collagen and elastin; and it aids in the production of nitric oxide, which helps vasodilate (open) blood vessels. Pycnogenol® has been featured in more than 170 scientific articles and clinical trials demonstrating its safety and effectiveness. Areas of health Pycnogenol may benefit include cardiovascular, cognitive function, blood sugar health, sports nutrition, breathing, menstrual health and more.
