Pycnogenol (The NO Multiplier)

Also Known As: French Maritime Pine Bark Extract, Pinus Pinaster

Compound Type: Flavanoid / Antioxidant / Vasodilator

★★★★★ (5/5 Stars) ESSENTIAL

Pycnogenol® is a patented extract from the bark of the French maritime pine tree. It is arguably the most researched natural ingredient for male sexual health outside of amino acids.

For Penis Enlargement, Pycnogenol is the “Turbocharger” to your Citrulline engine. While Citrulline provides the fuel (nitrogen), Pycnogenol stimulates the enzyme (eNOS) that converts that fuel into Nitric Oxide. Without this catalyst, your body can only produce so much NO before hitting a bottleneck.

How Does Pycnogenol Help Size?

It drastically increases the conversion rate of Arginine/Citrulline into Nitric Oxide, leading to 100% hard erections.

The Science: The “Prelox” Study

1. The Clinical Trial (92.5% Success):
A famous study dubbed the “Prelox” trial combined Pycnogenol with L-Arginine. The results were staggering: after 3 months, **92.5% of men** with erectile dysfunction experienced a restoration of normal erections. This synergy is one of the few natural protocols proven to rival pharmaceutical ED drugs.

2. eNOS Stimulation:
Pycnogenol works by stimulating Endothelial Nitric Oxide Synthase (eNOS). This is the enzyme responsible for generating NO in the artery lining. By upregulating this enzyme, you effectively widen the “pipe,” allowing for massive blood volume during expansion work.

3. Antioxidant Protection:
Nitric Oxide degrades quickly. Pycnogenol is a potent antioxidant that protects the NO molecule from breaking down, keeping your blood vessels dilated for hours instead of minutes.

💰 Budget Tip:

Pycnogenol vs. Pine Bark.
Pycnogenol® is the patented, standardized version used in studies. It is expensive. Generic “Pine Bark Extract” (95% Proanthocyanidins) is 80% cheaper and contains similar compounds, though it lacks the specific standardization of the brand name.

✔ The Verdict: THE TURBOCHARGER

5/5 Stars. If you have the budget, this is a non-negotiable addition to your stack. Combining Pycnogenol with Citrulline creates the most potent natural pump physically possible.

Optimal Dosage
60mg – 100mg
Daily
Take with Citrulline

Perfect Synergy With:

⛽

L-Citrulline

The famous stack. Citrulline provides the fuel; Pycnogenol ignites it.
🍊

Vitamin C

Recycles the antioxidants in Pycnogenol, making them last longer.

Reality Check: Nutritional supplements create the biological environment for growth, but they do not cause size gains on their own.
