inflammation; and improves joint flexibility.
Pycnogenol also readily binds to collagen fibers, thus improving the elasticity and
integrity of connective - tissues. These attributes and more make Pycnogenol a prime
protector against the effects of early aging.
Based on scientific research, the following claims have been made
Maritime pine bark offers dietary support for the circulatory system through three
distinct mechanisms.
Neutralizing the existing free radicals in the blood stream
Helping the body inhibit their formation
Promoting the integrity of the vessel wall.
Studies show that Maritime pine bark is able to inhibit proteolytic enzymes such as
collagenase and elastase, which degrade connective tissue.
Maritime bark can help support circulation in the hands and feet and in the tiny
capillaries that feed the eyes.

as well as other highly useful biologically active compounds.
Pycnogenol is the only natural product containing this specific combination of
ingredients, which contribute to its unique and highly beneficial activity in the human
body.
Do other products do the same thing?

five servings a day of antioxidant carrying fruits, vegetables and nuts. But even then,

pollution, cigarette smoke and chemicals can cause your body to produce even more free
radicals.

How Much Should I Take?
It depends on your weight. The most effective dosage is about 1.5 milligrams for 1 pound
