Our patented formulation is well balanced with aloe vera, papain enzyme and honey which SUPERCHARGES the delivery & effect of Pycnogenol® in the body for performance, endurance & recovery. We choose Pycnogenol pine bark extract because it is a safe and evidence-based premium ingredient, a unique blend of natural antioxidants. Over 40 years of research have been dedicated by Horphag Research to establish the safety, efficacy and quality of Pycnogenol®. Nitric Oxide (NO) is the body’s main Vasodilator.  Vasodilation is the physiological process in which the  diameter of blood vessels is widened to increase  blood flow. Nitric Oxide improves the flow of blood  and the delivery of oxygen and nutrients to the muscles. This is of particular importance for energy production  and hastening post exercise recovery   3 KEY PROPERTIES OF PYCNOGENOL® Powerful anti-oxidant & anti inflammatory Main active constituent is Procyanidins. This is a phenolic compound (part of a group of flavanoids) They are known and researched to be some of the most powerful natural antioxidants and anti inflammatories.  Helps generate Hyaluronic Acid Naturally produced by your body. Mainly found in our joints, Its main function is to retain water to keep your tissues well lubricated and ensure they are are working smoothly.  Aids Production of Endothelial Nitric Oxide Pycnogenol® stimulates the enzyme “endothelial nitric oxide synthase” (eNOS) for enhanced generation of NO from the precursor molecule L-arginine. As you exercise, your muscle cells consume more and more energy, leading to a decrease in nutrients and an increase in molecules such as carbon dioxide.This can lead to vasodilation, as the muscles you’re exercising require more nutrients and oxygen. When your body can no longer produce enough Nitric Oxide to keep this process going, this is where Pycnogenol is beneficial. https://www.instagram.com/modexnatural/     Live Your Own Fit Start enjoying 1:1 Health and Performance Coaching, or Group Coaching with Jaimielle and Pete Jacobs today.
