Pycnogenol and ADD/ADHD An extract from the bark of the French maritime pine tree reduced attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder in children, according to a new study. Researchers said in the journal Nutritional Neuroscience that Pycnogenol balances stress hormones, lowering adrenaline and dopamine. In the study, 41 patients took pycnogenol and 16 got a placebo, though a news release did not clarify if the subjects knew which group they were in. The study, testing urine for hormones, was developed after previous work showed relief of ADHD symptoms. Children were tested before starting the extract, after one month of daily doses and again a month after stopping. Pycnogenol was found to lower adreline by 26.2 percent, though levels went back up after they stopped the treatment.
