We are Offering Primium qualitry of Grape Seed
Extract along with their leaves and sap have been
traditional treatments in Europe for thousands of years.
Grape seed extract is derived from the ground-up seeds of
red wine grapes. Although fairly new to the U.S., grape
seed extract is now used to treat a number of diseases.
Grape seed extracts are industrial derivatives from whole
grape seeds that have a great concentration of vitamin E,
flavonoids, linoleic acid and phenolic OPCs. The typical
commercial opportunity of extracting grape seed
constituents has been for chemicals known as polyphenols
having antioxidant activity in vitro.
Potential anti-disease effects
Human case reports and results from laboratory and animal
studies provide preliminary evidence that grape seed
extract may affect heart diseases such as high blood
pressure and high cholesterol.By limiting lipid
oxidation, phenolics in grape seeds may reduce risk of
heart disease, such as by inhibiting platelet aggregation
and reducing inflammation. While such studies are
promising, more research including long-term studies in
humans is needed to confirm initial findings.
A polyphenol contained in grape seeds is resveratrol,
which may interfere with cancer cell growth and
proliferation, as well as induce apoptosis, among other
potential chemopreventive effects.
Preliminary research shows that grape seed extract may
have other possible anti-disease properties, such as in
laboratory models of wound healing – OPCs induced
vascular endothelial growth factor and accelerated
healing of injured skin in mice.
Tooth decay – seed phenolics may inhibit oral
sugar metabolism and retard growth of certain bacteria
that cause dental caries.
Osteoporosis – grape seed extracts enhanced
bone density and strength in experimental animals.
Skin cancer – grape seed proanthocyanidins
decreased tumor numbers and reduced the malignancy of
papillomas.
Ultraviolet damage to skin -dietary proanthocyanidins
may protect against carcinogenesis and provide
supplementation for sunscreen protection.

Product Details:
Latin Name: Vitis vinifera
Active
Ingredient: Proanthocyanidins
Dosage, precautions and
interactions
Oral grape seed extract is used in capsules
or tablets usually containing *0 mg or **0
mg. Insufficient scientific information is
known, however, about how long-term use of
grape seed extract might affect health or any
disease.
Side-effects and cautions, other NCCAM
advisories.
In general, grape seed extract is well
tolerated when taken by mouth, although it is
better tolerated when encapsulated, as its
taste is bitter. It has been used safely for
up to 8 weeks in clinical trials.
Side-effects most often include headache, a
dry, itchy scalp, dizziness, or nausea
Interactions between grape seed extract and
medicines or other supplements have not been
carefully studied.
Due to the possible action of
proanthocyanidins on limiting platelet
adhesion, grape seed extract may act as a
blood-thinner, increasing clotting time.
