grape seed extract : What is Grape Seed Extract?

Grape seed extract is a very powerful antioxidant. An antioxidant is a chemical that reduces oxidations in the body.  The natural plant extract contains procyanidolic oligomers or more commonly known as PCO. Scientists have studied PCO’s and have summed up that PCO strengthen blood vessels and help to improve the bloods circulation.  This anti oxidant is said to be 20 times more powerful than Vitamin C and 50 times more powerful than Vitamin E and even more powerful than Beta Carotene.  Grape seed extract acts as an extended anti oxidant that stays in your blood stream for 3 full days.

In 1999 it was first reported that Grape seed extract contained a chemo preventative that acts against skin cancer. It is also been studied that grape seed extract may also ward against prostate cancer.  It is also believed that the Grape seed extract may actually help slow down the aging process and may prevent some heart diseases.
