BIO KRAUTER Pine Bark Extract Gummies - 300 mg Strength - 60 Vegan Chews - French Maritime Pine Bark Extract - Antioxidant Supplement - 95% Proanthocyanidins - Pectin-Based Formula

Let’s start emphasizing that they taste good. One of the ‘other ingredients’ is ‘organic fruity extaraction (Blueberries)’ so it tastes as good blueberry gummies, softy to chew, sweet, and on top of the benefits of the pine bark extract that led you to be checking this product, it tastes as good or better as any other gummies that I got for Halloween on my younger’s years of treat or trick. They could be eaten just for pleasure.The not so good in my opinion, is that number one of the ‘other ingredients’ is Tapioca syrup. Meh, is not as bad as the infamous corn syrup, but is basically the same: A sweetener that screams processed food. I’m sure without it, the gummies wouldn’t taste that good and wouldn’t be that mushy, but usually I’m trying to avoid the ‘syrups’. The tapioca one being at least better than the corn for what I know, but at least you should know.And a last thing, this product is not FDA approved, if that it’s important to you, you should know. The sticker shows 'Made in a FDA registered facility' which is not the same as ‘FDA approved’.

Something of note: The bottle and the box it came in quite clearly identify the manufacturer as "BioKrauter" and even lists a domain for it. The product listing identifies these as "Mauwe Herbs", even though the photos quite clearly show BioKrauter. I'm going to assume they are an authorized seller, but I wanted to point it out as it's kind of unusual.Expiration date is hard printed on the bottle label (not changeable without making a new label run), and shows as 07/2025. This arrived to me 02/2024, so no problem there.Another interesting thing was this had hard-printed on the label, the amazon product scan code. That's more of a rarity than you might think, and indicates to me that this was made with this sales channel in mind. Again, not an issue, but something I wanted to point out.Product came in a box (no shrink wrap), and the bottle did not have an outside shrink wrap. That being said, the bottle mouth has a sturdy and vacuum sealed foil seal on it. Upon breaching the seal, it was easy to smell the gummies. Definitely a strong blueberry smell. The gummies kind of remind me of old school gum drops in their shape.Now I'm not a big blueberry fan. That being said, the taste wasn't bad to me.Suggested serving is two gummies per day, providing you with a 30 day supply.

If you need a pine bark supplement and you are wary of buying it because you may think it tastes like a pine cone or floor cleaner, I'm here to put your mind at ease. I'll be honest, I can't tell if its working when I take it and I feel no difference when on it or when I'm not. However, I can say that it tastes good, there's no hint of medicine or chemical or strange aftertaste. If you have had a fruit snack gummy that isn't a supplement, then this taste very similar to one of those and has the same texture and chewiness as those so it may stick to braces or rough teeth. I have to give it 4 out of 5 stars because I can't tell it is working but you shouldn't have to feel like you are choking down a spoonful of chemicals if you like pine bark supplements, and the taste and flavor of these gummies are good enough so that you will forget its a supplement.

Got these to treat adhd. They taste very good, like blue raspberry..sadly they don't seem to be working for us.

Back when I was a kid growing up in the 1960s and 1970s, there was an outdoorsman, naturalist named Yule Gibbons. I remember a TV commercial he was in where he mentions that you can eat certain parts of a pine tree. Hey, who knew you could consume pine bark in some form or another and that it's actually really healthy for you? I mean, I didn't really know, but indigenous peoples have known this kind of information for hundreds, if not thousands of years.Anyway, I'm no expert, but a nutritionist and the doctor that she consults with told me that I should start taking Pine Bark supplements. Anyway, I found this BioKrauter Brand Pine Bark Gummies and figured that I'd give them a try. I can't tell you why I'm taking them, at least, not specifically, because I'm not allowed to. So, what I can say is this, I'm getting older and I know that my diet isn't perfect, although, I'm doing my best to improve, I'm at least trying to cover all my bases by exercising every day, meditating, getting fresh air by getting out into nature as often as I possibly can, and also supplementing my nutrition by taking vitamins and minerals every day as well.

While I don't particularly care about the antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, or free-radical-fighting properties of pycnogenol, its effects on blood pressure definitely caught my attention. I don't know a lot about polyphenols, but this seemed like a safe way to dip my toe into those waters. I don't currently have issues with my blood pressure, but you know what they say about an ounce of preventative.It's also nice that these are in the form of a gummy. In the last year I've started taking my daily supplements in gummy form, and it's a whole lot more enjoyable than trying to swallow massive pills or putting weird-tasting oils on your tongue.

I’m very choosy what I put in my body and these did not make the cut. They do not face a website and do not seem reputable. There are brands that you can research that are transparent and can verify that you are getting what they say is in there.
