Study Demonstrates Pine Bark Naturally Improves Tinnitus
Date:10/13/2010

HOBOKEN, N.J., Oct. 13 /PRNewswire/ -- More than 50 million Americans will experience some degree of tinnitus in their lifetime, according to the American Tinnitus Association.  Tinnitus is a hearing condition that causes the constant misperception of sound, including hissing, ringing and rushing noises.  A study recently published in Panminerva Medica reveals that Pycnogenol® (pic-noj-en-all), an antioxidant plant extract derived from the bark of the French maritime pine tree, is effective in relieving tinnitus symptoms by improving blood flow in the inner ear.
