Pine Bark Extract
An extract from French maritime pine bark containing proanthocyanidins (also known as “procyanidin oligomers” or PCOs). Pine bark extract is a potent antioxidant and has been shown to enhance nitric oxide (NO) production and vasodilation in animal and human experiments. It also appears to be an effective treatment for chronic venous insufficiency and diabetic retinopathy. Anti-inflammatory, glucose lowering, analgesic and fertility-enhancing effects have also been observed in trials with human subjects.
