SDS 078: Pine Trees and Pycnogenol
This week Jesse and Dr. Jeffry Strong wander into a forest of lesser known plant extracts, discussing Pycnogenol, a product derived from the bark of a unique species of pine trees. It’s active effects range from being a superb antioxidant to reducing inflammatory conditions and improving circulation. To top it all, it has excellent cognitive benefits.
