Grape seed Extract-V, provided by Douglas
Laboratories®, supplies 100 mg of standardized grape seed extract in a
vegetarian capsule. Polyphenols, part of a broad class of
bioflavonoids, are commonly found in grape seeds. One type of polyphenols known
as proanthocyanidins are highly regarded for their strong antioxidant
properties, and for their functions in supporting the body’s connective tissues
and capillary blood vessel system. Proanthocyanidins are among the most powerful
natural free-radical scavengers yet discovered. As such, proanthocyanidins have
their own unique place in the body’s overall protection against harmful free
radical damage. Proanthocyanidins appear to be especially effective in
neutralizing highly reactive hydroxyl and singlet oxygen radicals. Both of these
reactive oxygen species are involved in inflammatory processes.
Proanthocyanidins also support and enhance the activity of vitamin C, and are
known for their ability to help support the health of the body's capillary
system and connective tissues. Proanthocyanidins have been shown to bind with
collagen fibers, thereby protecting them from premature degradation. This helps
maintain the natural elasticity of collagen in skin, joints, arteries,
capillaries, and other connective tissues. Grape Seed Extract-V may be a useful dietary
adjunct for individuals wishing to supplement their diet with natural
antioxidants. Adults take 1 capsule 1-2 times daily between
meals for 7 to 10 days, then 1 capsule daily or as directed by physician. No adverse side effects reported Store in a cool, dry place, away from direct
light. Keep out of reach of children. Blazso G and Gabor M: Oedema-inhibiting effect of
