WHAT IS GRAPE SEED EXTRACT 95 PROANTHOCYANIDINS?

Grape Seed Extract 95% proanthocyanidins, also called oligomeric or polymeric proanthocyanidins (OPCs), is a concentrated ingredient derived from grape seeds. The conjugated forms and colonic metabolites of these proanthocyanidins are largely responsible for the extract’s beneficial effects on health.

There is a bidirectional relationship between gut microbiota and grape seed proanthocyanidins. A large body of in vitro and in vivo research shows that grape seed proanthocyanidins exert a range of pharmacological activities, including antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-diabetic, neuroprotective, anti-osteoarthritis, cardioprotective and eye-protective effects.

  1. Anticancer potential
    Research indicates that grape seed proanthocyanidins exhibit anticancer properties. Grape Seed Extract 95% proanthocyanidins has been shown in studies to inhibit the growth of certain cancer cell lines, including prostate cancer, head and neck squamous cell carcinoma, and colon cancer cells.


  2. Antimicrobial activity
    Grape seed extract displays antimicrobial effects against a variety of foodborne and pathogenic bacteria. It can suppress the growth of strains such as Staphylococcus aureus, Campylobacter, Escherichia coli, and has activity against Helicobacter pylori, a bacterium linked to gastric ulcers.


  3. Blood pressure reduction
    Supplementation with grape seed extract has been associated with reductions in both systolic and diastolic blood pressure, particularly in adults under the age of 50 with hypertension.


  4. Cholesterol-lowering effects
    Studies suggest that grape seed extract supplements may help reduce levels of harmful cholesterol, contributing to prevention of lifestyle-related conditions such as atherosclerosis and reducing cardiovascular risk.


  5. Reduces edema
    Clinical observations show that intake of grape seed proanthocyanidin extract can reduce leg swelling (edema) in healthy women following prolonged sitting.


  6. Promotes wound healing
    Grape seed extract, rich in polyphenols like proanthocyanidins, can accelerate wound repair. Proanthocyanidins specifically induce vascular endothelial growth factors that are important in the healing process.


  7. Cardiovascular protection
    A sedentary lifestyle and poor diet are major contributors to cardiovascular disease. Proanthocyanidins in grape seed extract are potent polyphenolic antioxidants that help neutralize free radicals, support vascular health, and reduce the risk of heart attack and stroke.
