Major risk factors for cardiovascular disease include hypertension, diabetes, dyslipidemia, endothelial function, and clotting abnormalities. Pycnogenol®, an extract of bark from the French maritime pine Pinus pinaster, is a clinically researched dietary supplement that counteracts several cardiovascular risk factors. Pycnogenol may be cost effective in reducing the risk for cardiovascular disease. The minimal side effects and health benefits associated with Pycnogenol may make it a suitable treatment for those wishing to reduce their risk for cardiovascular disease. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
