Description
About Pycnogenol® Pycnogenol® is a patented natural extract from the bark of the maritime pine (Pinus pinaster) of the Landes de Gascogne, standardised to 65-75% procyanidins (OPC), active compounds from the bioflavonoid family. Initially studied at the University of Bordeaux, this premium ingredient has been the subject of numerous clinical trials across multiple fields of application, particularly microcirculation and dermo-nutraceuticals. Horphag Research has been investing in the research and development of this reference nutraceutical active ingredient for over 40 years. Unique properties √ Patented maritime pine bark extract (Pycnogenol®), from the Landes de Gascogne √ Standardised to 65-75% procyanidins (oligo-proanthocyanidins / OPC) √ Active ingredient backed by numerous clinical trials across multiple fields √ Improves microcirculation and capillary permeability, including at the cerebral level √ Antioxidant properties contributing to the protection of cells and tissues √ OPCs from Pycnogenol® combined with OPCs from grape seed extracts for optimal synergy
