In the US, pycnogenol products are on the top-10 list of the most popular supplements, and the substance is very well-documented.

Pycnogenol is made from the bark of French maritime pine with the Latin name Pinus pinaster. The trees are cultivated in a 2.5 million acres plantation in the Southwestern part of France. The wood is used for manufacturing furniture, and all trees that are cut down are replaced with new saplings, making the entire production fully sustainable. The loads of bark that is a by-product of the lumber production is used as a raw material to manufacture Pycnogenol, extracted from the bark. It takes approx. 1000 kg of bark to produce 1 kg of Pycnogenol. It is important that the bioflavonoids are extracted from the bark within 48 hours after the tree is cut down. No pesticides are used on the wood, and the patented extraction process does not use any toxic solvents.

Pycnogenol is made by extracting the outer bark of the pine. The fresh bark is pulverized and extracted with ethanol and water, using a patented process. After being thoroughly cleansed, the raw extract is spray-dried and turned into a fine brown powder. The extract is then standardized to a 70% +/- 5% content of the active plant substances known as procyanidines.

2 tablets 2 times daily for 1 week. Then 1 tablet 2 times daily, unless otherwise advised.

Do not chew the tablet but swallow it whole, preferably during/after a meal.

Bio-Pycnogenol can be combined with Bio-Multivitamin, Vitamin C and Vitamin E.
