Product Description.
Grape seeds are rich in antioxidants, including phenolic acids, anthocyanins, flavonoids and oligomeric proanthocyanidin complexes (OPCs). In fact, GSE is one of the best-known sources of proanthocyanidins. Due to its high antioxidant content, GSE can help protect against oxidative stress, tissue damage and inflammation and prevent many diseases.
Can Reduce Blood Pressure.
Several studies have researched the effects of GSE on high blood pressure. A meta-analysis of 16 studies in 810 people with high blood pressure or an elevated risk of high blood pressure examined the effect of GSE on the condition. They found that 100-2,000 mg of GSE per day significantly reduced systolic blood pressure by an average of 6.08 mmHg and diastolic blood pressure by 2.8 mmHg. Those under the age of 50, who were obese or had metabolic disorders showed the greatest improvements. The most promising results came from lower doses of 100-800 mg daily for 8-16 weeks rather than a single dose of 800 mg or greater. Another study in 29 adults with high blood pressure found that 300 mg of GSE daily lowered systolic blood pressure by 5.6% and diastolic blood pressure by 4.7% after six weeks.
Can Improve Blood Flow.
Some studies suggest that GSE may improve blood flow. In an eight-week study in 17 healthy postmenopausal women, taking 400 mg of GSE had blood-thinning effects, potentially reducing the risk of blood clots. An additional study in eight healthy young women assessed the effects of a single 400 mg dose of proanthocyanidin from GSE immediately followed by six hours of sitting. It was shown to reduce leg swelling and edema by 70%, compared to not taking GSE.
Reduce Oxidative Damage.
Elevated blood levels of "bad" LDL cholesterol are a known risk factor for heart disease. Oxidation of LDL cholesterol significantly increases this risk and plays a central role in atherosclerosis, or the build-up of fatty plaque in your arteries. GSE supplements have been found to reduce LDL oxidation triggered by high-fat diets in several animal studies. Some research shows similar results in humans. When eight healthy people ate a high-fat meal, 300 mg of GSE inhibited the oxidation of fats in the blood, compared to a 150% increase seen in those who did not take GSE.
Improve Collagen and Bone Strength.
Increasing flavonoid consumption is proven to improve collagen synthesis and bone formation. As a rich source of flavonoids, GSE may thus help increase your bone density and strength. In fact, animal studies have found that adding GSE to either a low-calcium, standard or high-calcium diet can increase bone density, mineral content and bone strength.
Brain Boosting Properties.
Flavonoids are thought to delay or reduce the onset of neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's disease through a combination of antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. One of the components of GSE is gallic acid, which has been shown to inhibit the formation of fibrils by beta-amyloid peptides in animal and laboratory settings. Clusters of beta-amyloid proteins in the brain are characteristic of Alzheimer's disease. Animal studies have found that GSE may improve brain antioxidant and cognitive status, prevent memory loss and reduce brain lesions and amyloid clusters.
