What is pycnogenol?
Pycnogenol is an extract from a French maritime Pine tree. This extract is taken from the bark of mono-species of pine trees grown exclusively in Les Landes de Gascogne Forest in southwest France The forest is unspoiled and natural- with no pesticides or herbicides used.
The premium quality of Pycnogenol components comes from the fact the bark is not subject to seasonal variations which makes it an ideal botanical source.
