Grape seed extract contains OPC and, with it, immense healing potential. OPC is an antioxidant plant substance that is also a specialist for very specific areas of the body. OPC acts particularly on the skin, eyes, the immune system, and even the hormonal balance. Read on to find out if OPC is the ideal dietary supplement for you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOPC – The Guarantee for Protection and Beauty\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLife would be twice as nice without sagging skin and wrinkles. While you can cover up a lot with cosmetic tricks, wouldn't it be great to simply look radiant without tubes and jars? Grape seed extract could help you with that!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGrape seed extract belongs to the top-class anti-aging miracle remedies. \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.zentrum-der-gesundheit.de\/resveratrol-in-trauben.html\"\u003eGrape seeds\u003c\/a\u003e are packed with OPC (\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/de.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Oligomere_Proanthocyanidine\"\u003eOligomeric Proanthocyanidins\u003c\/a\u003e).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOPC belongs to the polyphenols, a large group of secondary plant substances. The antioxidant power of \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.zentrum-der-gesundheit.de\/opc.html\"\u003eOPC is particularly impressive, as it is one of the most powerful available antioxidants\u003c\/a\u003e known to us. In the daily battle against threatening free radicals, OPC can hold the front line for you – if you wish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOPC Makes Your Skin Smooth and Supple\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFree radicals attack all cells. When they target the skin, these villains strip the skin of its elasticity and leave it in a thousand crinkly wrinkles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eParticularly deep and stubborn wrinkles form when free radicals not only attack the skin cells themselves but also the two fiber proteins – collagen and elastin – which are located between the skin cells and keep our skin firm and elastic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe fiber proteins lose their stability and elasticity after radical attacks. Eventually, they are broken down by the body's own enzymes. However, the less collagen there is in the skin, the less moisture the skin can retain. It dries out and becomes even more wrinkled.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe tiny blood vessels that supply every skin cell with nutrients and oxygen also consist partly of fiber proteins and recede as the fiber protein content decreases.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBut what happens then? The fewer blood vessels that lead into the skin, the poorer its supply of nutrients and oxygen. However, there are also cells (fibroblasts) in the skin tissue that would actually—if they could—form new fiber proteins every day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThey, too, are attacked by free radicals and can subsequently form fewer and fewer fiber proteins, meaning the vicious circle is finally closed. There would only be an escape if someone could stop the free radicals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOPC can do that. OPC and all the other antioxidant active ingredients in grape seed extract protect the skin cells, fibroblasts, fiber proteins, and blood vessels from free radicals and thus from decay and aging.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOPC is a Natural Face-Lift\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMany antioxidants work in this way. The special thing about OPC is that its antioxidant potential is 20 times greater than that of Vitamin E and 50 times as effective as the antioxidant power of the famous Vitamin C.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBut OPC can do much more for your skin. OPC repairs collagen that has become unstable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you imagine the structure of collagen as a ladder whose rungs are slowly but surely rotting or are missing entirely, OPC can replace the missing or brittle rails. Wrinkles smooth out, and the skin regains its former elasticity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a kind of natural face-lift – completely without a knife or pain. Skin enzyme activity is also promoted by OPC, which leads to increased protection against UV radiation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor the sake of your skin, also avoid all factors that provide you with unnecessary free radicals. The number of radicals can rise immeasurably due to smoking, drugs, alcohol, stress, and poor nutrition, which is why we are largely responsible for our appearance ourselves.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSo, the person who looks back at us from the mirror, crumpled and tired, and not infrequently gives us a nasty fright, is what we have made of ourselves through our lifestyle. With OPC by our side, we have the opportunity to risk a reversal and begin a new life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOPC for Rapid Wound Healing\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf OPC has such beneficial effects \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.zentrum-der-gesundheit.de\/grundsystem-des-koerpers.html\"\u003eon the connective tissue\u003c\/a\u003e and the skin, then wounds naturally also heal significantly faster under the influence of OPC and grape seed extract.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe active ingredients of grape seed extract – above all OPC – render bacteria harmless, stimulate damaged blood vessels to regenerate rapidly, and support thorough connective tissue repair.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOPC for Neurodermatitis\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll the previously mentioned properties of OPC plus its immune-relieving effect as well as the anti-inflammatory effect described below give rise to the hope that OPC could also be helpful for neurodermatitis.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNeurodermatitis is a complex process and should never be tackled with just a single substance. The holistic therapy of neurodermatitis therefore includes the right diet, \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.zentrum-der-gesundheit.de\/darmflora.html\"\u003ethe symbiosis management of the intestinal flora\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.zentrum-der-gesundheit.de\/entgiften-entgiftungskur-ia.html\"\u003eregular detoxification\u003c\/a\u003e, naturally the avoidance of potential triggering factors, the supply of \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.zentrum-der-gesundheit.de\/vitamin-d-dosierung-ia.html\"\u003esufficient Vitamin D\u003c\/a\u003e and all B-complex vitamins, as well as much more.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHowever, OPC can be a powerful companion to effective and naturopathic neurodermatitis therapy. There are reports from neurodermatitis patients who experienced a significant improvement in their skin appearance with a daily dose of 100 mg of OPC. However, as is generally the case with the treatment of chronic diseases, patience is required. Results usually only show after several months.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOPC for Beautiful and Full Hair\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBeautiful, healthy, and young skin is, of course, not everything in life. A supple head of hair wouldn't be bad either. For many people (and, by the way, for animals, especially dogs as well), OPC has an extraordinarily positive and, above all, visible effect on hair growth and hair appearance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe hair becomes soft, shiny, and grows thicker and faster than average and becomes longer than ever before.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJapanese studies showed many years ago that OPC was able to boost the cell multiplication of hair follicles by 230% compared to control preparations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFurthermore, OPC possesses a remarkable ability to influence the hair cycle. OPC increases the number of hairs that are in the so-called anagen phase (growth phase), which is why the researchers in question recommended OPC from grape seed extract as a component for promoting hair growth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOPC for Healthy Eyes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGlasses and contact lenses are certainly quite helpful. But wouldn't it be better if we could maintain our eyesight into old age? Just consider what you could do with the time you spend at the optician and eye doctor alone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eExperience shows that the daily intake of 300 mg of grape seed extract can reduce the effects of permanent eye strain due to hours of computer work in just 60 days.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnd not only that; grape seed extract is also recommended for fighting so-called macular degeneration and cataracts, as well as for improving night vision.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.zentrum-der-gesundheit.de\/makuladegeneration.html\"\u003emacular degeneration is an eye disease\u003c\/a\u003e in which retinal cells die off and vision in the central field of view is impaired. You see the clock, for example, but not the hands; you see the outlines of a person, but not their face.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOPC Protects the Heart and Blood Vessels\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOf course, free radicals do not just attack the skin, hair, and eyes. They are involved in the development of many widespread health problems, such as \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.zentrum-der-gesundheit.de\/osteoporose.html\"\u003eosteoporosis\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.zentrum-der-gesundheit.de\/karies.html\"\u003ecavities\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.zentrum-der-gesundheit.de\/diabetes.html\"\u003ediabetes\u003c\/a\u003e, and \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.zentrum-der-gesundheit.de\/darmerkrankung.html\"\u003edigestive problems\u003c\/a\u003e. \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.zentrum-der-gesundheit.de\/bluthochdruck.html\"\u003eHigh blood pressure\u003c\/a\u003e can also develop if blood vessels have been damaged by free radicals. Because just like in the skin, the blood vessel walls throughout the entire body contain the aforementioned fiber proteins, which give them stability and elasticity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf the number of fiber proteins decreases, the blood vessel walls harden, blood flow falters, and the body increases blood pressure to at least keep things flowing to some extent despite the poor vascular situation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHere, in turn, OPC and all other antioxidants from grape seed extract intervene helpfully, protecting the fiber proteins, maintaining the elasticity of the blood vessel walls, keeping the blood vessels free of deposits, and protecting them from future oxidative damage by free radicals. The risk of \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.zentrum-der-gesundheit.de\/herzkreislauferkrankungen.html\"\u003ecardiovascular problems\u003c\/a\u003e is consequently reduced to a minimum with OPC.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOPC Lowers Cholesterol Levels\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn this context, the effect of OPC and \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.zentrum-der-gesundheit.de\/opc.html\"\u003egrape seed extract\u003c\/a\u003e on \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.zentrum-der-gesundheit.de\/cholesterin.html\"\u003echolesterol levels\u003c\/a\u003e is also of interest. According to two promising studies, it is suspected that grape seed extract can lower cholesterol levels, whereby a combination of grape seed extract and the intake of a chromium supplement was able to reduce cholesterol values more significantly than OPC or grape seed extract alone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOPC Against PMS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOPC also works extremely positively in a very delicate area, namely in the area of the female hormonal balance, e.g., \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.zentrum-der-gesundheit.de\/praemenstruelles-syndrom.html\"\u003efor PMS complaints\u003c\/a\u003e. PMS describes the cluster of symptoms of premenstrual syndrome. This includes all hormonally induced phenomena that generally occur a few days before menstruation and vanish into thin air with the onset of bleeding, such as mood swings, headaches, fatigue, menstrual cramps, etc.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHow specifically OPC acts on the hormonal balance has not yet been clearly clarified. It is suspected that OPC can also harmonize the hormonal system by strengthening and regulating the immune system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn any case, a study showed that a large proportion (60 percent) of 165 women who had taken 200 mg of OPC daily from the 14th to the 28th day of their cycle for four months felt a relief in their PMS symptoms after just two months. After four months, it was even 80 percent who felt significantly better with OPC.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOPC for Allergies\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOPC from grape seed extract could also be used as a natural, side-effect-free antihistamine and in this way mitigate allergic reactions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor instance, OPC is said to inhibit the activation of certain pro-inflammatory enzymes which, in their activated form, would lead to histamine release and thus to \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.zentrum-der-gesundheit.de\/allergie.html\"\u003eallergic symptoms\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis indicates that OPC also has an anti-inflammatory effect, although the mechanism mentioned is certainly not the only one with which OPC can block inflammation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eProfessor Jack Masquelier, who researched OPC for many decades—indeed, dedicated almost his entire life to this highly effective substance—undertook a self-experiment to demonstrate the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory power of OPC.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo do this, he applied a skin-irritating solution to two areas of his arm. He then smeared a 0.5% OPC ointment onto one of the two spots. After two days, an unpleasant inflammation had developed on the untreated area. The spot treated with OPC, however, was already healing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOPC Protects the Brain and Nerves\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGrape seed extract and OPC could even be used to support the treatment of conditions such as ADD (\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.zentrum-der-gesundheit.de\/adhs.html\"\u003eAttention Deficit Disorder\u003c\/a\u003e), as they pass the \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.zentrum-der-gesundheit.de\/blut-hirn-schranke.html\"\u003eblood-brain barrier\u003c\/a\u003e and can then intervene in the regulation of neurotransmitters and the relevant hormones in the brain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOnce in the brain, OPC and the other active ingredients of the grape seed extract immediately act protectively there as well, safeguarding nerves and brain tissue from oxidative attacks.
