Pycnogenol 30 mg is a powdered extract derived from the French maritime pine bark, known as Pinus Pinaster.

In 1534, historical records suggest that North American Indians aided French explorers suffering from vitamin C deficiency by providing them with tea made from the needles and bark of specific pine trees. These pine trees naturally contained traces of vitamin C. Centuries later, in the early 1920s, a gentleman named Charles Haimoff developed a unique substance called Pycnogenol. It is a water-soluble flavonoid extract obtained from the bark of the French maritime pine tree. This is the founding narrative of Horphag, the company Solgar has partnered with for its Pycnogenol products.

Within pine bark, scientists have identified a specific type of bioflavonoid called proanthocyanidins. These bioflavonoids are non-toxic, water-soluble, highly bioavailable, and potent enhancers of vitamin C. Pycnogenol has long been recommended for its health-promoting properties and its wide-ranging benefits. Pycnogenol is a registered trademark for products containing bark from the French maritime pine tree. Each daily dose of one vegetable capsule of Pycnogenol delivers 30mg and is suitable for individuals following a vegan diet.
