Product Description
Function:
The antioxidant capacity of Grape
Seed Extract comes from proanthocyanidins (oligomeric
proanthocyanidins) (OPCs). With an antioxidant power *0 times
stronger than Vitamin C and *0 times stronger than Vitamin E,
OPCs is known as a powerful antioxidant to neutralize free
radicals, which play a major role in degenerative diseases,
cardiovascular diseases, impaired vision, sun damage and
premature aging.
1. Cardiovascular Diseases
Researches have assured that OPCs
helps strengthen capillaries, arteries and veins, which endows it
several important clinical applications. OPCs appear to stabilize
the walls of blood vessels, reduce inflammation, and generally
support tissues containing collagen and elastin.
1). Atherosclerosis:
It has been proved that the
oxidation of LDL plays an important role in atherosclerosis. By
its excellent antioxidant activity, OPCs eliminates damages that
free radicals, as well as collagenase and elastinase do to the
arteries, thus prevents or reverses atherosclerosis. Animal
evidence suggested that OPCs could slow or reverse
atherosclerosis.
2). Venous Insufficiency (Varicose
Veins)
Varicose Veins refers to the
situation when blood pools in the legs, causing pain, heaviness,
swelling, fatigue, and unsightly visible veins. By strengthening
capillary and reduce capillary osmosis, OPCs can relieve the pain
and swelling of venous insufficiency. For the same reason, OPCs
is recommended as a treatment for hemorrhoids as well. There is
also some evidence that OPCs can be useful for the swelling that
often follows injuries or surgery. OPCs appear to speed the
disappearance of swelling, by strengthening damaged blood and
lymph vessels that are leaking fluid.
A double-blind placebo-controlled
study of *2 subjects found that OPCs, taken at a dose of **0 mg 3
times daily, significantly improved major symptoms, including
heaviness, swelling, and leg discomfort. Over a period of 1
month, *5% of the participants treated with OPCs improved
substantially. Another placebo-controlled study that enrolled **4
individuals with varicose veins also found that treatment with
OPCs produced results superior to those of placebo.
3). Retinopathy/Vision
Improvement
The capacity of OPCs in
strengthening capillary and reduce capillary osmosis is effective
for patients suffering from stroke
and retinopathy. OPCs has been proved to improve retinopathy
caused by diabetics, atherosclerosis, inflammation and
aging. It has also been reported that OPCs can speed vision
recovery after strong light, and improve vision acuity of
those
who suffer from eye fatigue because of long-time computer
using.
A *-week, controlled (but not
blinded) study evaluated the ability of grape seed OPCs to
improve night vision in normal subjects. In this trial of **0
healthy volunteers, those who received **0 mg per day of OPCs
showed improvements in night vision and glare recovery as
compared to untreated subjects.
2. Aging/Alzheimer Disease
Because OPCs can easily pass the
Blood-Brain Barrier, it can effectively inhibit the damage that
free radicals do to the brain organism, so that Alzheimer Disease
is prevented and reversed.
3. Skin Care
Because of its antioxidant
activity, OPCs is thought to prevent the skin from excessive
ultraviolet radiation and free radicals. Considerable evidences
indicate that OPCs protects and strengthens collagen and elastin
of the skin, so that wrinkle is prevented and elasticity of the
skin is kept. OPCs in cream form are a popular treatment for
aging skin, on the theory that by repairing elastin and collagen
they will return skin to a more youthful appearance.
4.Anti-cancer, Anti-inflammation
and Anti- allergic Activity
Since free radicals play a vital
role in tumor formation, OPCs is reasonably used for its
anti-cancer activity. Also for its inhibition of inflammatory
factors such as PG, *-HT and Leukotriene, as well as selective
binding to connective tissue of the joints to relieve pain and
swelling, OPCs is helpful for kinds of arthritis. The
anti-allergic activity of OPCs is thought to be the result of
anti-histamine. Compared with other anti-allergic drugs, OPCs has
the same efficacy and does not have the same side effects such as
drowsiness.
Dosage: For use as a general
antioxidant much as you might use vitamin E or vitamin C, *0 mg
of OPCs daily are sufficient. A higher dosage of **0 to **0 mg
daily is generally used for treating specific diseases such as
varicose veins.
