New study: Pine bark reduces perimenopausal symptoms
Date:8/28/2007

p>After six months, LDL (bad) cholesterol dropped by 10 percent with Pycnogenol treatment compared to placebo. Patients who supplemented with Pycnogenol also had increased antioxidant levels compared to the placebo group. During treatment, rapid improvement of symptoms was reported from the Pycnogenol group after one month. All symptoms of the WHQ improved significantly compared to the start of treatment, and patients did not report unwanted side effects. In the placebo group, no significant changes of symptoms were recorded.

There is a shift away from the use of hormone replacement therapy due to side effects and in its absence women are searching for safe and natural options to help manage their symptoms. This study investigating Pycnogenol as a potential natural alternative is very encouraging in view of the safety of Pycnogenol as it does not bear any hormone-like activities at all, said Dr. Rohdewald.

Numerous other published studies reveal Pycnogenols effectiveness for womens health, such as relieving menstrual pain and endometriosis, and it is patent-protected for this application. Additional studies reveal Pycnogenol is a natural anti-inflammatory, which provides the basis for the rationale to use Pycnogenol to naturally moderate inflammatory pain sensation involved in menstruation.
