Valuable secondary plant compounds from the maritime pine
Pycnogenol® is a patented and standardised extract from the outer bark of the maritime pine (Pinus pinaster), a fir species that grows on the southwest coast of France. Traditionally, firs are also called pine trees. The extract contains a variety of polyphenols, such as oligomeric proanthocyanidins (OPC), and organic acids such as ferulic acid, cinnamic acid and caffeic acid. Pycnogenol® has been used for some time. It has been used as a supplement for approximately 40 years. Today, with over 300 scientific publications, it is considered one of the most intensively studied nutrients worldwide.
The extract exerts a wide range of biological effects that are due to a multiple mechanism of action. Pycnogenol® has strong antioxidant activity and can help protect various body cells from free radicals. It also promotes blood circulation and the flexibility of blood vessels by positively influencing the formation of NO (nitric oxide) from the amino acid L-arginine in the walls of blood vessels. NO plays a role in many regulatory mechanisms, including in the vascular wall. Pycnogenol® supports the stability of connective tissue in the walls of veins and capillaries, which is why it can be helpful for cosmetically troubling veins. Moreover, it promotes microcirculation, including in the brain.
Pycnogenol® can also be a valuable supplement for athletes when combined with the right diet and appropriate training, as it possesses antioxidant properties.
