The grapevine (Vitis vinifera), also known as grape or wine grape, is a plant historically native to the Mediterranean region, the Caucasus, and as far as southern Turkmenistan. Nowadays, its cultivation is widespread due to its fleshy and juicy fruits. They are mainly used to make wine, juices, jams, and jellies, but are also consumed as is or dried as raisins. The seeds, on the other hand, are used for pressing oil.

The grapevine itself is a plant beneficial for health: it acts on the cardiovascular system. It helps maintain normal blood pressure and also has a direct effect on blood vessels, particularly the veins, which it helps keep in good condition [ID 2157]. Interestingly, it also influences body weight, helping to reduce it [ID 2735].

The grape seed extract, on the other hand, is an excellent antioxidant, meaning it removes free radicals from cells. It thus prevents, among other things, their aging and degradation. This is possible due to the presence of oligomeric proanthocyanidins (OPC). These are a variety of flavonoids grouped together. Their content also contributes to the positive effect on blood vessels - venous and capillary - mentioned earlier [ID 2139]. There are up to 285 mg of active proanthocyanidins per capsule.

In summary, the Medverita OPC 95% 300 mg 120 capsules dietary supplement is a purely formulated product providing the body with an antioxidant in the form of oligomeric proanthocyanidins contained in grape seeds.
