Pine Bark Blood Pressure Randomized TrialResults Compared to control (247.5 ± 14.0 mmol/L⋅min), the iAUCglucose was significantly reduced with the 400 mg dose (211.8 ± 13.9 mmol/L⋅min, 14.4% reduction, and p = 0.037), but not with 50 mg dose (220.8 ± 14.2 mmol/L⋅min, 10.8% reduction, and p = 0.184).2Lim WXJ (2025)The Hypoglycaemic Effects of the New Zealand Pine Bark Extract on Sucrose Uptake and Glycaemic Responses in Healthy Adults-A Single-Blind, Randomised, Placebo-Controlled, Crossover Trial.
Pine Bark Blood Pressure Randomized TrialCompared to control (9.1 ± 0.2 mmol/L), glucose peak value was significantly reduced with the 50 mg dose (8.6 ± 0.2 mmol/L, 5.5% reduction, and p = 0.016) but not with the 400 mg dose (8.7 ± 0.2 mmol/L, 4.4% reduction, and p = 0.093).2Lim WXJ (2025)The Hypoglycaemic Effects of the New Zealand Pine Bark Extract on Sucrose Uptake and Glycaemic Responses in Healthy Adults-A Single-Blind, Randomised, Placebo-Controlled, Crossover Trial.
Pine Bark Blood Pressure Randomized TrialConclusions The New Zealand pine bark extract attenuated sucrose uptake with improved glycaemic responses, and may therefore be useful as a hypoglycaemic adjunct to the diet.2Lim WXJ (2025)The Hypoglycaemic Effects of the New Zealand Pine Bark Extract on Sucrose Uptake and Glycaemic Responses in Healthy Adults-A Single-Blind, Randomised, Placebo-Controlled, Crossover Trial.
Pine Bark Blood Pressure Randomized TrialBackground The New Zealand pine bark has been demonstrated in vitro to inhibit digestive enzymes involved in carbohydrate digestion (alpha-amylase, alpha-glucosidase, and dipeptidyl-peptidase 4 (DPP-4)).2Lim WXJ (2025)The Hypoglycaemic Effects of the New Zealand Pine Bark Extract on Sucrose Uptake and Glycaemic Responses in Healthy Adults-A Single-Blind, Randomised, Placebo-Controlled, Crossover Trial.
