Science & Research
Verifiable Science
"Pycnogenol" originally denoted all proanthocyanidin extracts, regardless of source. However, it now refers specifically to maritime pine bark, which contains a unique mixture of proanthocyanidins and other polyphenols. Pycnogenol® supports vascular endothelial function by promoting the synthesis of nitric oxide. Pycnogenol® also has antioxidant effects and helps to stabilize collagenous membranes.1,2 In addition to facilitating vitamin C regeneration and preserving vitamin E, Pycnogenol® is a potent hydroxyl and superoxide radical scavenger. Collectively, these actions promote the health of blood vessels.3‡
