Pycnogenol® improves blood flow and cardiovascular risk factors

The ageing process and unhealthy life-styles affect the health of the vascular system.

Pycnogenol helps constricted arteries to return to the relaxed state with normal diameter and further normalises blood platelet activity. This is a result of more efficient generation of vascular mediator nitric oxide with Pycnogenol.

In consequence Pycnogenol improves the blood flow and several studies show that Pycnogenol helps to normalise elevated blood pressure. Furthermore, Pycnogenol was able to significantly decrease abnormal platelet function in two studies with cigarette smokers and another with 200 long-haul flight passengers.
