Grape Seed Extract Polyphenols
Grape seed polyphenols are known as oligomeric proanthocyanidins (OPC's). There are over 4,000 polyphenols in nature, varying in structure and biological activity. OPC's have a unique polyphenol structure enabling them to interact with various proteins and enzymes relating to the circulatory system.*
Wellness Resources Grape Seed Extract is concentrated for 95 percent OPC.
OPC's for Collagen and Circulatory Health
OPC's have a very strong affinity for collagen structures in the body, helping to boost the strength and integrity of collagen fibers. Research shows they are highly attracted to the skin, gastrointestinal mucosa, and circulatory system. In the circulatory system, OPC's help protect against degradation of collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid, which are the main structural components of the circulatory connective tissue matrix.*
OPC's are known to help blood vessels relax via the release of nitric oxide, which also stimulates collagen synthesis as needed. OPC's also act as a potent antioxidant along the lining of the circulatory system. OPC's have undergone extensive human testing and are widely used in Europe as a health supplement to support circulatory health, especially for the integrity of veins and capillaries.*
