Pycnogenol is a natural herbal product made from the bark of the maritime pine tree.
Pycnogenol is rich in procyanidins, a special class of water-soluble antioxidant flavonoids that are extremely useful in fighting free radicals. Numerous clinical studies have shown that Pycnogenol has a beneficial effect on veins and arteries, as well as on the entire cardiovascular system.
In addition, Pycnogenol optimizes and reduces inflammatory processes in the body.
According to a study conducted by Dr. Scott Rosseff, Director of the Center for Advanced Reproductive Endocrinology in West Essex, England, up to 60% of infertile couples have trouble conceiving due to abnormalities in the man's sperm. By taking Pycnogenol to increase normal functioning sperm in a natural way, they could avoid in vitro fertilization and enjoy improved natural fertility. Or at least undertake less invasive and expensive procedures to increase it.
NOW Foods' product is also extremely beneficial for brain function
This is because it protects blood vessels and because it is one of the few orally administered antioxidants that easily crosses the blood-CSF barrier to protect brain cells.
