Flavonol proanthocyanidin extract from grape seeds, which may contribute to antioxidant activity against peroxyl free radicals. Our grape seed extract raw material contains not less than 95% total polyphenols, including 83% oligomeric proanthocyanidins (according to the industry standard, determined as the difference between total polyphenols and monomeric polyphenols).
Because they can have a powerful effect in the digestive tract, the antioxidant effectiveness of proanthocyanidins is not dependent on bioavailability. However, with their superior water-solubility, they are easily absorbed and are generally well tolerated.
Proanthocyanidins are the most powerful antioxidants found in wine and in grape seeds, specifically targeting their interactions with peroxyl radicals, due to the hydrogen transfer mechanism involved in the radical-scavenging reaction. They can inhibit the peroxidation of ingested lipids during the digestive process, preventing them from being oxidatively degraded before they have a chance to get into the bloodstream.
WHY SUPPLEMENT WITH GRAPE PIPS PROANTHOCYANIDINS?
Proanthocyanidin flavonoids may contribute to the integrity of collagen structures and the capillaries.
Proanthocyanidin flavonoids support inhibition of peroxidation of ingested lipids during the digestive process.
Proanthocyanidins may also enhance resistance to oxidative modification of LDL.
