What is Vitis Grape seed extract powder?

Grape seed extract are industrial derivatives from whole grape seeds that have a great concentration of vitamin E, flavonoids, linoleic acidand phenolic OPCs. The typical commercial opportunity of extracting grape seed constituents has been for chemicals known as polyphenol shaving antioxidant activity in vitro.

The US National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine (NCCAM) reported that oral administration of grape seed extract was well tolerated in people over 8 weeks of a clinical trial. In one completed clinical trial, grape seed extract did not alleviate the hardening of breast tissue in female patients undergoing radiation therapy to treat breast cancer.

What is Proanthocyanidins?

Proanthocyanidins are oligomeric flavonoids, mainly found in grapes. They are dimers (see picture) or oligomers of catechin and epicatechin and their gallic acid esters.
Proanthocyanidins are mainly found in the skin and seeds of grapes. They are also present in red wine. During the production of red wine, the juice is left to ferment with the seeds and skins during a few days. During this fermentation process, the formed alcohol will extract the proanthocyanidins from the seeds and skins. Other rich sources are cocoa, apples, peanuts, almonds, cranberries, blueberries and bark of the maritime pine.
