OPC (oligomeric proanthocyanidins) belong to the flavonoids and are plant substances that are mainly found in grape seeds and the skin of red grapes. However, OPC is also contained in peanuts, blueberries, apples and cranberries. Effect OPC can have a blood-thinning, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory effect but also strengthen collagen structures. According to studies, the OPC can have a positive effect on cardiovascular dysfunction or inflammation. It can also act as a radical scavenger, which can sustainably reduce the oxidative stress that weighs on cells. Sources: Bagchi D, Swaroop A, Preuss HG, Bagchi M.
