Grape Seed Extract: Powerful Antioxidant

For many people who are seeking antioxidant support, the best choice is grape seed extract. . . .

Now a new study has validated the antioxidant claim for this important supplement.

Grape seed extract is a very rich source of proanthocyanidin flavonoids, which are potent antioxidants. In this study, 46 healthy people between the ages of 17 and 60 took a 1g dose of grape seed extract, consisting of approximately 250mg of polyphenols, in the morning and evening for one day. The grape seed extract increased their antioxidant capacity significantly.

This study confirms that consuming grape seed extract significantly elevates antioxidant levels on the same day as you take it.
