• Cleanup then Keep. I agree this article is incredibly promotional (® after every occurance of subject name?!). However, the subject appears to be quite notable. >900,000 Google hits for Pycnogenol and another 300,000 for proanthocyanidins. —Quarl ^(talk) 2006-01-05 04:43Z
  • Here's what http://www.vitaminsdiary.com/pycnogenol.htm says:

    Pycnogenol is the trade name for a group of bioflavonoids called proanthocyanidins. Although these flavonoids can be extracted from various foods such as fruits, grains, vegetables and grape seeds, pycnogenol is derived under patent, from the French maritime pine tree (Pinus maritima).
