Detailed description

O.P.C. PINE, extracted from the maritime pine barks, Pinus pinaster, is rich in oligomeric proanthocyanidins (O.P.C.), polyphenols recognized for their powerful antioxidant properties. Native to Mediterranean regions, this tree is exploited for nutraceutical uses.

The proanthocyanidins present in pine bark extract have proven beneficial effects on cardiovascular health by promoting microcirculation and strengthening capillary resistance. In addition, pine bark extract is used to protect skin from oxidative damage, reduce the signs of aging and soothe skin irritations.

In phytotherapy, O.P.C. PINE is renowned for its vasodilatory and neuro-boosting effects. The polyphenols it contains, such as catechin and epicatechin, help neutralize free radicals and combat oxidative stress.
