Proflavanol C200

The Fight Against Free Radicals

With the detrimental effects of today’s environment, we are bombarded by free radicals every second of every day. Free radicals have become a devastating enemy to our health. In this constant combat, one of the best ways to help us live healthy lives is to give our bodies the proper weapons and shields from our environment. Antioxidants are the weapons that provide the electrons which neutralise these free radicals.

Potent Antioxidants

There are more than 20,000 bioflavonoids and bioflavanols identified today with differing degrees of antioxidant activity. Procyanidins (flavanols) appear to be some of the most powerful free-radical scavengers available. Procyanidins are found in many types of foods, but in extremely small amounts. Some of the highest concentrations of procyanidins are found in grape seeds.

Vitamin C and Healthy Immune Function

Supplementation of vitamin C was found to improve components of the human immune system such as antimicrobial and natural killer cell activities and lymphocyte proliferation. Vitamin C contributes to maintaining the integrity of cells and protects them against reactive oxygen species generated during the respiratory burst and in the inflammatory response.

Synergestic Combination of Grape Seed Extract and Vitamin C

An in-house double blind, randomised and placebo-controlled clinical study, conducted by Boston University of Medicine and USANA Health Sciences, showed that the combination of grape seed extract plus vitamin C improved serum antioxidant status and vascular function in capillaries and arterials.

Why Proflavanol C100 or Proflavanol C200?

Proflavanol C100 and Proflavanol C200 provide superior antioxidant protection with a synergistic blend of grape seed extract and Poly C.

Employs Nutritional Hybrid Technology

Nutritional Hybrid Technology combines two formulations into one bilayer tablet, keeping the formulations distinctly separate. By combining two formulations into one, you can simplify your nutritional regimen by decreasing the number of tablets you need to take each day. The two layers of grape seed extract and Poly C are distinctly visible in both Proflavanol C100 and Proflavanol C200. This technology also supports product stability. This technology is proprietary to the pharmaceutical industry, but USANA is the first nutritional supplement manufacturer to use this technology, to the best of our knowledge.

Supports Cardiovascular Health

The cardiovascular system comprises the heart and blood vessels. The cardiovascular system is the circulation mechanism by which the body is sustained through providing oxygen and other nutrients. Maintaining the health of each part of the circulatory system is essential to healthy function of virtually every body system. Proflavanol C100 and Proflavanol C200 help maintain normal healthy blood vessels and capillaries. They may assist blood circulation and help maintain a normal healthy vascular function.

Supports Healthy Immune Function

Proflavanol C100 and Proflavanol C200 help to support and maintain a normal healthy immune system and function.

Promotes Healthy Skin

As an antioxidant formulation, Proflavanol C100 and Proflavanol C200 can help defend against cellular damage caused by free radicals that can negatively impact the skin’s appearance. Collagen plays a major role in skin’s firmness and elasticity. When collagen is damaged by UV rays, free radicals, smoke or pollution, its structure becomes distorted, leading to poor skin texture wrinkles and other imperfections. Proflavanol C100 and Proflavanol C200 both provide a rich source of vitamin C that is required for collagen synthesis. The proanthocyanidins in Proflavanol C100 and Proflavanol C200 may protect the skin against UV-induced oxidative stress. With its unique combination of grape seed extracts and vitamin C, it may help to maintain normal healthy skin and may be beneficial in improving skin-ageing appearance.

Proflavanol C100 contains the equivalent of 12 g of grape seed extract along with 300 mg of vitamin C in each tablet, while Proflavanol C200 contains the equivalent of 24 g of grape seed extract along with 300 mg of vitamin C and both come in a delicious grape flavour.

Proflavanol C100 and Proflavanol C200 are laboratory tested and quality guaranteed. They meet British Pharmacopoeia specifications for potency, uniformity and disintegration where applicable.
