Is this chemically the same as Pycnogenol? Does anyone really know?

Pycnogenol is the active element in pine bark extract. When you take pine bark extract, you are getting pycnogenol. I can attest to the efficacy of this product vs other products labeled pycnogenol as I've taken both for lowering blood pressure

I ordered this as Dr. Mark Stenger in the health report I get said that it contained pine bark and was good for the ear problem. I decided that if it was the pine bark, I would order the pine bark. I did and it has helped. I ordered the Pycnogenol next time and I didn't see any difference, so I went back to the pine bark as it has the right milligram and I fell it works better. I will continue to buy the pine bark. It has definitely made a difference in the noise level. I can now sleep. That is all I can tell you. I feel the pine bark has really helped.

MAX Has more ingredients go to the phycox site and read info on it - I was very impressed especially I have a older dog with an injury. I was using Phycox before but no the max then I researched it and switched. Now my vet carries it too. Great stuff.

Ann~ Thank you for posting this. I wanted to answer this personally because I can speak from experience. I am a long term user of C E Ferulic from Skinceuticals. It really set the standard for vitamin C serums. While Skinceuticals has a great line, I founded srumtologi to offer products that offered comparable luxury and clinically proven ingredients but without the often shockingly high price tag. Our C serum 22 has 47% more vitamin c and is in a form that does not cause skin irritation. It also has twice as much ferulic acid and is 1/5th the price. I would be honored if you would give our product a try. Vanessa Powers, Co-founder-srumtologi

Hi there - I don't know, unfortunately. I'm sure the company has that information. I found that more effective than garcinia cambogia is green tea extract for weight loss. Good luck!

Hi B. Luckey,I purchased this product and it does not indicate anywhere on the bottle whether it is seanol p or seanol f. The ingredients read as follows: Ecklonia cava (leaf and branches) 400mg. Other ingredients: gelatin; may contain one or more of the following: microcrystalline cellulose (plant fiber), magnesium stearate, silica. When I bought it, I was under the impression that it was the pure form (seanol-P), but at this point, I cannot be sure. Banana

Well I just went through and compared all the ingredients between the golden and blue version. The BIG BIG DIFFERENCE that jumped out at me is this now has Ketoconazole at 0.9% in it. I have been historically using the blue version and using Nizoral Ketoconazole shampoo twice a week (marketed for dandruff at $14 per bottle and available at target) which is typically used as the only ingredient in lots of expensive hair loss shampoos out there! So Pura D' Or has taken my advice!...and have added a very important ingredient to this mix. Also it has added Alma oil, Prunus Africana bark and Cucubita Pepo herbs that the blue bottle does not have.

This product did not work for me...at all. If Ingredients are identical, im not sure what the difference would be. Good luck!

Yes. Xylol is the actual chemical name. Xylene is a brand. There is no difference between Xylene and Xylol. Xylene is the brand-name of the chemical xylol. Both are petrochemical solvents and chemically identical.

I have used both pycnogenol and French Maritime Pine Bark . . . both work equally well. I started using pycnogenol when I was doing some very strenous exercises to help keep muscle tightness and ache minimal. Tried French Maritime Pine Bark because this is the original type of tree bark used and am now using to relieve general inflamation.

NO. It is a natural product produced from a tropical fruit found in Indonesia. Google "Dr. Oz Garcinia Cambogia". The active ingredient is hydrocitricacid, HCA.

Not sure I can answer that question. All the pill I have are the same ingredients. Perhaps you need to contact YoungYou International, the distributor.

Well as far as I am concerned this is the only brand that "has had the results" of the finished dilution when used as cleaners, etc. It is formulated from the doctor who "wrote the book." I guess you would not really know unless you had it tested SCIENTIFICALLY - whether or not it was a pure 35% -but like I said when I mix it to it's destined use, oral, internal, fruit and veggie wash, plant insect spray, bleach substitute, mold killer [the absolute best you'll ever find] etc.... the results are always spot on, so I would highly recommend this brand. I won't use anything else but this. 5 stars. ~Susan in Port Orchard, WA.

I also use this and am looking for a less expensive equivalent, I noticed the address on jars for both products look the same so I checked the full ingredients on the Viralys website and found the same ingredients as in the Tomlyn product, see for yourself... http://vetoquinolus.naccvp.com/product/basic/view/1005047 and... http://www.tomlyn.com/products/cat/vitamins-immune-support/immune-support-l-lysine-powder (find the Lysine powder)

I believe all Pycnogenol is made from this tree bark, including NOW Pycnogenol.

I have nothing to test whether it is or not. It says it is and i am assuming it is. It does not smell like EVOO nor does it solidify like Coconut oil would...but again, other than testing it in a chem lab, you'd have to go with what is on the bottle. I researched the company and found it to be reputable.

Yes, Sambucol is the original extract formulated by Dr. Madeleine Mumcuoglu based on her (and others) research. It uses the whole berry in a proprietary extraction process that preserves the benefits of the berry. If you review the literature you will see that Sambucol was the elderberry used in the vast majority of the clinical studies. "Sambucus" (there are several brands, but will address the Natures Way version) uses a standardized extract, which is fine, except that no one knows where exactly the benefits come from in the berry, so it may be that they are missing some key pieces, and to the best of my research has never been used in any study.
