[What is Pine bark?]

Pine bark, botanical name Pinus pinaster, is a maritime pine native to southwest France that also grows in countries along the western Mediterranean.  Pine bark contains a number of beneficial compounds that are extracted from the bark in a way that doesn’t destroy or damage the tree.

[How does it work?]

What gives pine bark extract its notoriety as a powerful ingredient and super antioxidant is that it’s loaded with oligomeric proanthocyanidin compounds, OPCs for short. The same ingredient can be found in grape seeds, the skin of peanuts and witch hazel bark. But what makes this miracle ingredient so amazing?

While OPCs found in this extract are mostly known for their antioxidant-producing benefits, these amazing compounds exude antibacterial, antiviral, anticarcinogenic, anti-aging, anti-inflammatory and anti-allergic properties. Pine bark extract can help reduce muscle soreness and may help improve conditions relating to poor circulation, high blood pressure, osteoarthritis, diabetes, ADHD, female reproductive issues, skin, erectile dysfunction, eye disease and sports stamina.

Seems like it must be pretty amazing, but let’s look closer. The list goes on a bit further, as the OPCs in this extract may “inhibit lipid peroxidation, platelet aggregation, capillary permeability and fragility, and to affect enzyme systems,” which basically means it may be a natural treatment for many serious health conditions, such as stroke and heart disease.

Also some thing to watch for in Pearl Powder.

Food formulators have a lot of sweetening choices. Each sweetener has its own flavor characteristics. Some are sweeter than sugar, some are less so. The flavor may develop and subside smoothly and cleanly, as in the case of sugar. Others take longer to mature, and then they linger too long. The after effect can be bitter, metallic or similarly unpleasant.

XeroSweet Plus Stevia Fortified Xylitol available in standard 30-60 mesh and 100 mesh fine powder is formulated to reduce calories. XeroSweet Plus 100 mesh can replace 10X confectioner’s sugar. The addition of SteviaSweet 95-60 in XeroSweet Plus doubles the sweetness intensity while imparting a clean, well balanced flavor. XeroSweet Plus stevia fortified Xylitol has 2.5 calories per gram, a 60% reduction over sugar. Deeper calorie reductions are achieved by using half as much. Synergies with other sweeteners will further enhance flavor while driving down total sweetener usage levels, and ultimately, ingredient costs.
