Pycnogenol - Pine Tree Bark Reduces
Side Effects In Hypertensive Patients
A study published in the October journal of
Clinical and Applied Thrombosis/Hemostasis shows Pycnogenol� (pic-noj-en-all),
an antioxidant plant extract from the bark of the French maritime pine tree
reduced edema, a typical side-effect of antihypertensive medications, by 36
percent in patients taking these medications.
According to Dr. Gianni Belcaro, lead researcher of the study, more than 35
percent of patients taking antihypertensive medications are believed to
suffer from edema as a side-effect. This happens because the
antihypertensive medications cause blood vessels to dilate, which allows
easier blood flow and thus lowers blood pressure. However, as a side-effect
this causes blood to pool in the vessels of the lower legs. In result they
stretch and liquid seeps into tissue causing swelling (edema). Hypertension
is a serious risk factor for developing severe cardiovascular incidents some
time in the future and thus the necessity for treatment justifies the
development of edema as a side-effect.
Antihypertensive medications reduce pressure by inhibiting constriction of
blood vessels. "The larger the blood vessel diameter, the easier blood will
flow with less pressure," said Dr. Belcaro. "In order to avoid blood pooling
in the lower legs and feet (edema), blood vessel diameters must adjust when
a person changes positions from laying down to standing up. Results of this
study show Pycnogenol to improve blood circulation, avoiding blood pools and
reducing edema."
The study sampled 53 hypertensive patients at the G D'annunzio University in
Italy. All patients suffered from edema of their ankles and feet as a result
of antihypertensive medications and were taking medications at the same
dosage for at least four months. Twenty-three patients were being treated
with ACE inhibitors (brand names Mavik�, Altace�) and 30 patients were being
treated with nifedipine (calcium channel blockers) (brand names Adalat�,
Procardia�).
The eight week study sampled 27 patients with 150 mg Pycnogenol treatment
per day versus an equivalent dosage of placebo for the remaining 26
patients.
Blood vessels causing edema of the lower legs were measured using a strain
gauge plethysmography (a general instrument for determining and registering
variations in the size of an organ or limb). Patients were first measured in
supine position then while standing up.
After an eight week Pycnogenol treatment, patients treated with ACE
inhibitors experienced a 35 percent decrease of ankle swelling while
patients being treated with nifedipine experienced a 36 percent decrease of
ankle swelling. According to Dr. Belcaro, Pycnogenol helps defy a major
side-effect of antihypertensive medication. Furthermore, Pycnogenol has a
blood pressure-lowering effect itself and thus helps to achieve a healthy
cardiovascular system.
Pycnogenol was chosen for the study because it has demonstrated its
effectiveness with conditions such as edema, DVT and blood circulation
improvement in many clinical trials. In 2005, a study published in Clinical
and Applied Thrombosis/Hemostasis showed Pycnogenol to be effective in
reducing edema during long airplane flights lasting 7-12 hours. In 2004, a
study published in Life Sciences revealed patients who took prescribed high
blood pressure medication were able to cut the dosage in half when they
supplemented with Pycnogenol. More than 35 years of research exhibiting
Pycnogenol's effectiveness for improved blood circulation and cardiovascular
health show its significance in maintaining health.
Pycnogenol is the safe, effective
super-antioxidant that helps to relieve many chronic degenerative
disorders.

This is a crazy world. What can be
done? Amazingly, we have been mislead. We have been taught that we can
control government by voting. The founder of the Rothschild dynasty, Mayer
Amschel Bauer, told the secret of controlling the government of a nation
over 200 years ago. He said, "Permit me to issue and control the money of
a nation and I care not who makes its laws." Get the picture? Your freedom
hinges first on the nation's banks and money system. That's why we
advocate using the
Liberty Dollar, to understand the
monetary and banking system. Freedom is connected with
Debt Elimination for each individual. Not
only does this end personal debt, it places the people first in line as
creditors to the National Debt ahead of the banks. They don't wish for you
to know this. It has to do with recognizing WHO you really are in
