Only a starting point I read about the numerous potential benefits of pycnogenol in another book, and they seemed promising enough that I sought a book focused on pycnogenol. I chose this book by Richard Passwater because it's fairly recent (2005) and because I have some confidence in Jack Challem, the series editor. The book has some useful information, but it has substantial limitations:(1) Passwater is. Andrew W. Saul said Of COURSE it is a starting point. The whole idea of writing is to communicate. Richard Passwater, like Linus Pauling, Abram Hoffer, and other natural health writers, is outstanding at this. No, he does not have an MD. Neither does he have any Nobels. But then, most readers don't either. This is a book for the public: it is accessible and has the virtue of brevity. Look it over and decide for yourself. Should you read
One of the most remarkable natural antioxidants ever discovered, Pycnogenol is a complex of more than forty individual antioxidants extraced from the bark of French maritime pine trees. It has been shown in scientific studies to reduce the risk of cardiovascular diseases, painful inflammation, and even erectile dysfunction.
