Maritime pine bark and grape seed extracts: secondary plant substances from nature
The maritime pine (Pinus pinaster), also known as the Bordeaux pine, is native to the Atlantic coast of France and can grow to be 300 years old. As early as the 4th century, the ancient Greek Hippocrates already appreciated the bark of this tree – and Hippocrates also saw more than just “the truth” in grape wine. Nowadays, we know that pine bark extract is especially rich in the valuable plant substances proanthocyanidins and polyphenols. The targeted intake of pine bark extract protects the vascular walls and supports blood circulation.

Pycnogenol® – It’s worth paying attention to quality
Pycnogenol® is a 100% natural maritime pine bark extract with a standardised quantity of proanthocyanidins. This patented raw material is unique in many respects:

• Unique source
Pycnogenol® is obtained from the bark of maritime pines (Pinus pinaster), which thrive in “Les Landes de Gascogne”, a forested area in southwest France. In this unpolluted, natural habitat, it is possible for maritime pines to grow free from pesticides and herbicides. The premium quality of the ingredients contained in Pycnogenol® remains constant due to the bark not being subject to seasonal fluctuations, unlike that of other plants. Pycnogenol® extraction is patented, is performed without the use of toxic solvents, and is subject to the highest quality standards.

• Unique composition
Pycnogenol® is a natural combination of active ingredients with a constant amount of proanthocyanidins, bioflavonoids and organic acids with natural active properties. Pine bark extract (Pinus pinaster) protects the vascular walls and supports circulation.

• Unique science
For over 50 years, Horphag, the manufacturer of Pycnogenol®, has been working on the properties, safety and quality of the extract. To date, more than 160 clinical studies have been performed on, and more than 450 scientific publications written about, pine bark extract. Pycnogenol® is protected by a number of U.S. and international patents. Furthermore, the raw material is certified as kosher and halal.
