Lamberts Pycnogenol® 40mg (Pine Bark Extract), 60 Capsules
Pycnogenol® is an extract from the bark of the Maritime Pine. Proanthocyanidins, a sub-group of the flavonoid family of plant compounds, are the key constituents in Pycnogenol®. Pycnogenol® first came to be researched by Dr Jack Masquelier of the University of Bordeaux, France, after he read of an unknown substance being used successfully by members of his expedition. His research focused on the proanthocyanidins in Pycnogenol®, which are known to have significant antioxidant effects. In vitro assays show Pycnogenol® has powerful antioxidant properties like those of Vitamins C and E.
As a consequence of Dr Masquelier's findings, he developed the pine bark extraction process and was awarded an U.S. patent for the use of Pycnogenol® as a free radical scavenger.
Each capsule provides a full 40mg of Pycnogenol® making it one of the most potent pine bark extract products on the market.
