New Study: Pycnogenol(R) Improves Memory in Elderly
Date:3/17/2008

odic memory and psycho-motor performance.

Blood samples were taken from subjects and after 3 months treatment a marker known as F2-isoprostanes significantly decreased with Pycnogenol(R), but not in the placebo group. F2-isoprostanes develop by oxidation of unsaturated fatty acids, which are present in particularly high quantities in nerve cell membranes. The coincidence of Pycnogenol(R) significantly improving memory after three months and the oxidation of nerve membranes being significantly inhibited suggests that the antioxidant activity of Pycnogenol(R) plays a major role for the clinical effects.

According to Dr. Stough, "The antioxidant Pycnogenol(R) had beneficial cognitive and biochemical effects for elderly individuals. Participants in the Pycnogenol(R) groups showed improvement relative to the controls with the effects becoming evident from the second to third months of the Pycnogenol(R) treatment."

Research on Pycnogenol's(R) cognitive function benefits are currently being investigated further. Several recent research studies on Pycnogenol(R) studied the extract's effects on Attention Deficit Disorders including ADD and ADHD. Findings published in the Journal of European Child & Adolescent Psychiatry showed Pycnogenol(R) reduced ADHD symptoms such as hyperactivity and improved attention, concentration and motor-visual coordination in children with ADHD.

Dr. Con Stough discussed key points of the study in a presentation March 13-14 at the Oxygen Club of California 2008 World Congress. For more information please visit, http://www.pycnogenol.com.
