Pine bark extract is a substance extracted from Pinus massoniana Lamb’s bark. It contains a large number of compounds called OPCs (procyanidin oligomers). OPCs have been found in many plants, as a new source of OPCs. It has no difference in quality and function, but there are some slight differences in appearance. Studies have proved that it is an effective antioxidant, non-toxic, and very safe to use, but occasional allergic reactions and mild dyspepsia have also been found.

Function:

The antioxidant capacity of pine bark extract is 20 times that of vitamin C and 50 times that of vitamin E.

Dosage:
