Title:30 caps with no affect

Date:July 31, 2011

"I tried a bottle of Pycnogenol along with L-Arginine, and only felt a slight flushing in my face the first time I took it. The other 29 days had no affect. I take a lot of supplements (vitamins, fish oil, flaxseed oil, etc.) so perhaps I wouldn't have noticed any increase in energy, or any other impact on my body. I had been taking L-Arginine for a few months and thought the combination of that and Pycnogenol might have produced some effects. I won't purchase Pycnogenol again and will most likely stop taking L-Arginine."

Title:best so far

Date:October 12, 2010

"I learned about pycnogenol from Dr Sears ,this product gave me great results ,
.the only reason i gave 4 for over all is because Swanson uses Magnesium Sterate , I wish if they relinquish the use of it , Magnesium Stearate creates a light film on your stomach wall after a while and it prevents full absorption of nutrients.please Swanson find an alternative to MS.
thank you"

Title:no more searching around

Date:June 10, 2010

"First, pycnogenol is great for health (please study its benefits). Secondly, I did a lot of comparisons and Swanson's has better potency with lower cost than other products. I only wish Swanson can combine pycnogenol with Swanson Red Antioxident Team. There is another product with red antioxidents+pycnogenol, but its potency cannot compare with Swanson's and the price of that product is ridiculously high for its value. Anyway, no need to search around. Swanson is it!"

Title:Works for me

Date:August 10, 2009

"Sometime ago I read about a research project which concluded that elderly people taking 150mg of Pychogenol daily showed an improvement in function and memory. While I personally have no baseline from which to measure results, just doing something to ward off the negatives of getting older feels good! I'm retired. I love being retired. I want to continue to enjoy being retired. I want to feel good - and taking pychogenol does that for me. There is no way to show proof. You must try it to see if it works for you."

Date:July 22, 2009

"I have been taking pycnogenol for about 16 years. Pycnogenol was fairly new to the USA 16 years ago, and there were not many brand name choices. Over the years, I have found quite a few different companies selling pycnogenol, as it has grown in popularity. I was always searching for the best deal, as pycnogenol is not a cheap supplement.

My search is over! I have been buying Swanson's pycnogenol for several years, and it is the best price I have been able to find. And the quality is excellent. I highly recommend it."
