OPC AS A DIETARY SUPPLEMENT
OPC - WHAT IS IT ACTUALLY?
OPC - oligomeric proanthocyanides - are secondary plant substances found in the seeds of grapes. Moreover, OPC has a 100% bioavailability, i.e. it can be completely utilized by the body. Since the content of OPC in grape seeds is particularly high, the active ingredient OPC is extracted from them and is therefore also called grape seed extract.
WHY SHOULD YOU TAKE OPC?
OPC (grape seed extract) as a dietary supplement is said to have many positive effects. These range from anti-aging to cancer prevention.
Antioxidant effect
OPC is a powerful antioxidant known to protect the body's cells from free radicals. These so-called free radicals attack human cells and are thus involved in both skin aging and the development of cancer cells.
Reduction of cancer risk
Various studies have even been able to prove the preventive effect of proanthocyanides on the development of tumors. In addition, OPC is said to be not only a far more powerful antioxidant than vitamins C and E, but also acts as a catalyst, which also enhances the effects of vitamins A, E and also C.
Improvement of blood circulation
Furthermore, grape seed extract is said to have a positive influence on blood pressure and the cardiovascular system by improving blood circulation, making veins more elastic and counteracting vein blockages. In addition, it could also improve the absorption of nutrients. Which in turn supports a healthy and balanced diet.
Positive effects like an improvement of the kidney function, protection of the liver or also protection with infections could be likewise proven.
EFFECT OF OPC ON THE SKIN
OPC supplements are said to have a regenerative effect on the skin. In addition, as mentioned above, antioxidants protect the skin from free radicals, which attack the fibrous proteins collagen and elastin and are thus significantly involved in skin aging. In addition, grape seed extract protects skin enzyme activity, accelerates skin wound healing and has antibacterial effects. It should also be added that OPC, as already mentioned, promotes blood circulation and thus strengthens connective tissue.
Our Bootylicious Shape Vitamins contain patented VERISOL® collagen peptides and OPC from grape seed extract. In addition, the bears are enriched with valuable vitamin C and vitamin E, because both vitamins optimally support the effect of collagen and OPC. This supports the skin's firmness and resilience all over the body. They are also sugar-free and taste deliciously fruity like cherries. Convince yourself!
FOODS WITH OLIGOMERIC PROANTHOCYANIDES
Although OPC is often referred to as grape seed extract, it is not only found there. The popular secondary plant substance can also be obtained from other foods in the diet. For example, OPC is predominantly found in the skin of various fruits and vegetables. But these foods also contain OPC: cranberries, aronia berries, strawberries, apples, bananas, cherries, nectaries, peanuts and almonds.
NASSIM JAMALZADEH:
"Unfortunately, OPC (oligomeric proanthocyanides) is still not known to many people. But as soon as you hear about its effect, especially on the skin, it becomes clear why taking OPC is so important and you should not do without it. OPC is definitely an all-rounder."
FAQS ABOUT OPC SUPPLEMENTATION
FAQS ABOUT OPC SUPPLEMENTATION
In general, you can take OPC (oligomeric proanthocyanides) at any time of day. However, experts recommend taking it 30 minutes before a meal, as it can be better utilized on an empty stomach. If you are taking other medications, it is recommended to take them 1-2 hours apart.
Effects on health and body are difficult to predict. But after a short period of time you will not notice any changes. The effects are more likely to appear in the long term, i.e. after several months.
The recommended daily dose of OPC is 150-300mg. This depends on whether you are taking OPC for acute symptoms or not.
Experts recommend not taking grape seed extract if you are taking blood thinning medication. This is because it can intensify this effect. In principle, however, OPC is good for everyone.
Side effects are not known so far and cannot be directly attributed to the intake of OPC. Grape seed extract is generally known for its very good tolerability and usability.
It is impossible to say which OPC is best. The dosage form does not play a role in the effect of grape seed extract. It is up to you whether you prefer to take capsules, powder, drops or our bears.
