To summarize the main findings from research on food uses of Pine Bark Phenolic Extracts (PBPE), their origin, methods of extraction, composition, health effects, and incorporation into food products.
A narrative review of all the relevant papers known to the authors was conducted.
PBPE are mainly extracted from the bark Pinus pinaster. They are generally rich in procyanidins and their effects on health in the form of nutritional supplements include effect on some forms of cancer, on diabetes, on eye and skin health. Their method of extraction influences greatly their composition and yield, and commercially suitable methods are still to be developed. Incorporation into food products raises challenges related to bioavailability and subsequent bioactivity and sensory properties of the final products.
PBPE represent an opportunity for the development of functional foods with phenolic-rich bioactive compounds.
总结有关松树皮酚提取物（PBPE）的食品用途、来源、提取方法、成分、对健康的影响以及在食品产品中的应用的主要研究结果。
对作者所知的所有相关论文进行了叙述性综述。
PBPE 主要从松树皮 Pinus pinaster 中提取。它们通常富含原花青素，作为营养补充剂，它们对健康的影响包括对某些形式的癌症、糖尿病、眼睛和皮肤健康的影响。它们的提取方法对其成分和产量有很大影响，商业上合适的方法仍在开发中。将其掺入食品产品会带来与生物利用度以及最终产品的生物活性和感官特性相关的挑战。
PBPE 为开发富含酚类生物活性化合物的功能性食品提供了机会。
