NR GRAPESEED EXTRACT 500 MG 60SGELS

Grape seed extract is used for its free radical–fighting capabilities, and for a variety of conditions related to capillary health and permeability. It is synergistic with vitamin C, which is more potent and absorbed more rapidly when used together with proanthocyanidins. Proanthocyanidins present in grape seeds are known to exert anti-inflammatory, antiarthritic, and antiallergic activities; to prevent skin aging; to scavenge oxygen free radicals; and to inhibit the damaging effects of UV radiation from sunlight. They also bond with collagen, the most abundant protein in the body and a key component of skin, gums, bones, teeth, hair, and body tissues. Proanthocyanidins have been indicated for poor distribution of microcirculatory blood flow in the brain and heart; altered capillary fragility and permeability (in diabetes mellitus); chronic arterial/venous insufficiency in the extremities; altered platelet aggregation and other characteristics of blood flow in capillaries; breakdown in the elastic fibers of the capillaries (collagen and elastin) due to free-radical and enzyme action; microangiopathy of the retina, edema of the lymph nodes, varicose veins, and other symptoms of the problems listed above; the cumulative effects of aging; and reducing the risk of degenerative diseases.
