Supplements - Pycnogenol
Pycnogenol® is the extract from the “pine bark” of the French maritime pine tree which grows in Les Landes in south-west France. This unspoiled and natural environment is the unique source of Pycnogenol®.
Pycnogenol® is the brand name for a premium herbal supplement extracted from the bark of the French maritime pine tree. That special pine bark is loaded with a concentrate of active bioflavonoids, which are also found in fresh fruits and vegetables. The extract from that bark is a potent blend of active compounds. Extensive research over a period of more than 30 years was dedicated to safety of Pycnogenol® and to substantiate the manifold benefits for human health of this extraordinary extract
Pycnogenol® represents a natural blend of genetically programmed constant proportions of bioflavonoids including catechin, epicatechin, taxifolin, monomers, dimers of catechin and epicatechin, oligomeric procyanidnins and phenolic fruit acids such as ferulic acid and caffeic acid.
Pycnogenol® is produced by a validated manufacturing process following good agricultural practice (GAP) and good manufacturing practice (GMP). There is absolutely no application of pesticides during the growing of pine trees or toxic solvents during the manufacture of Pycnogenol®, there can be no pesticide or solvent in the finished active substance.
More than 130 scientific articles and clinical trials have confirmed Pycnogenol®s safety, absence of toxicity and clinical efficacy. In today’s marketplace, Pycnogenol® is one of the best researched natural products. Scientific evidence on its Antioxidative Capacity and protective action on the Vascular System have been published in the most renowned scientific journals. Additional published findings have demonstrated Pycnogenol®s beneficial effects in Diabetes, Cholesterol Control, Inflammation, Asthma, Skin Care, Menstrual Disorders, Fertility, Sport Endurance and Cognitive Function (i.e. ADD/ADHD) in children and elderly.
As one of the most potent natural scavenger of free radicals, Pycnogenol® mops-up all kinds of aggressive radicals, before they cause any damage by oxidative stress. Pycnogenol® boosts the immune system and it strengthens blood vessel walls and capillaries. It supports a better circulation by preventing stress-induced constriction of arteries and blood clotting. Additionally the extract contains substances, which act against cramps.
Why fight free radicals? In every day life our body generates free radicals, especially in case of stress. These chemically unbalanced radicals cause damage to our cells by oxidizing them, in the same way as metal becomes rusty and destroyed. Hence, free radicals are dangerous and scientists believe that the continuous exposure to free radicals is the major cause of ageing and also of many degenerative diseases.
As a super-antioxidant, Pycnogenol® counteracts that danger in two ways: It stimulates our cells to double their antioxidative power and it catches free radicals in the blood stream. That double defense makes Pycnogenol® unique.
With the summer and the traveling season ahead of us, Pycnogenol has added benefits in the prevention of deep vein thrombosis (blood clot) while traveling on long flights.

How does this help with stressed (business, ADHD, hyperactive) people?
Stress means your adrenal gland is producing lots of adrenaline to handle the activities connected with a busy business person's schedule. This involves putting out fires in your office, stuck in traffic during your daily commute, demanding phone calls and loads of bad news, if you are a smoker you smoke too much, and deadlines to meet.
Pycnogenol® counteracts the increase in blood pressure caused by stress and it helps to prevent the clotting of blood, which may occur in case of stress and smoking. Business people may have to work in a sitting position (attending endless meetings) and have to travel a lot. Pycnogenol® helps against swollen feet and reduced circulation caused by that immobile life style. Intake of Pycnogenol® may increase cognitive function (improve ADD/ADHD symptoms), reduce the risks of stress and will prevent consequences of sedentary lifestyle.
Taking Pycnogenol is similar to taking supplemental vitamins, minerals, and herbs to enhance a person's functionaly physiology. Once every system is working perfectly and in unison, the ADD/ADHD symptoms "appears" to be diminished. Thus, "normal" cognitive functionality returns.
Pycnogenol® is available in the super oxidant product OPC-3. Go to link below for product info.
