USANA Proflavanol C¹⁰⁰ | Proflavanol C²⁰⁰: Two Antioxidant Solutions for Optimal Health

The Benefits of Grapeseed and Proflavanol C100

Grapeseed extract and vitamin C, or what USANA likes to call Poly C, combine to provide optimal support for immune, cardiovascular, and skin health. Vitamin C is a age-old vitamin that has so many important functions for the body – it’s one of the vitamins that Dr’s rave about.

Grapeseed Extract. This is a classic antioxidant, an extremely powerful free radical cleanser.

Grapes and grapeseed have been used for health long before the term “antioxidant” was discovered. Grapes are an excellent source of bioflavonoids, which are plant compounds that have antioxidant properties. Grapeseed’s natural benefits are even further enhanced by vitamin C. If you remember growing up and seeing the raw grapes that hung over the fences of our neighbors, the ones with the pips. Well, these grapeseed pips deliver a powerful punch of antioxidants to the body – a must have in your daly health regime.

USANA Proflavanol C100 is a supplement that boasts USANA Nutritional Hybrid Technology.

USANA was one of the original companies to bring this type of tabletting to the nutritional world. This hybrid-tehnology, means that there are two antioxidants in one that mutually enhance each other’s nutritional properties supplying a higher antioxidant effect in the body when consumed.

The benefit to the body is to promote optimal health by neutralizing free radicals and also support immune function, cardiovascular health, and the strength of the veins, capillaries, and blood vessels. Overall, it sustains the health of joints, muscles, and skin – told you it was a super-supplement!

Proflavanol C100 contains 100 mg of premium, high-grade, pharmaceutical grape seed extract and 300 mg Poly C (vitamin C) blend in a single tablet.

If you’re wanting to up the health approach a notch (or 10) you may choose Proflavanol C200 if you’d prefer to get two times the amount of Grapeseed Extract and Poly C

The USANA Proflavanol C Difference

Bioflavonoids are plant-derived nutrients or phytonutrients, and they are what make fruits and vegetables different colors. The bioflavonoids from blue or purple berries and grape seeds are proanthocyanidins, classifiable as “OPCs” (oligomeric procyanidins), and “PCOs” (procyanidolic oligomers).

OPCs have a high molecular weight, and their chemical structure varies, so the gut is limited in its capacity to absorb them. Proflavanol C maximizes this absorption by delivering smaller OPCs, which are easier to absorb than larger ones, and boasting a formula that has at least 90% OPCs.

Together with the optimized grapeseed extract, USANA’s Poly C unites a form of vitamin C known as ascorbic acid together with mineral salts. These powerful ingredients together combine to provide greater effectiveness than either one provides on its own. In the case of Proflavanol C, the whole is greater than the sum of its parts.

Free Radicals Don’t Stand a Chance With Proflavanol C

Proflavanol C100 has great antioxidant powers thanks to the OPCs in the grapeseed as well as Vitamin C, which neutralizes free radicals.

Free radicals have an odd number of electrons, which makes them highly reactive in the body and this can go on to cause damage.

The free radical will attempt to stabilize by seeking out an electron from another molecule. This process is generally healthy because it gets the body to instigate processes that protect physiological health.

However, today, we are constantly generating new free radicals because of exposure to things like stress, unhealthy foods, pollution, UV rays, and cigarette smoke.

Usually, the body can handle free radicals, but when there’s an overload, the result can be damaging oxidative stress. Prolonged oxidative stress results in oxidative damage, some of which cannot be reversed. This damage can affect cells, lipids, proteins, and DNA and ongoing oxidative stress can severely compromise your way of life – and even disease.

To ensure optimal health, it’s crucial to make sure that there is a proper balance between antioxidants and free radicals.

By protecting cells from oxidative stress, antioxidants help to maintain this balance, and the two master antioxidants in Proflavanol C100, Vitamin C and grapeseed bioflavonoids – combine to deliver powerful protection.

Proflavanol C100 – An Unbeatable Support for Heart Health

Proflavanol C from USANA is an unbeatable supplement for heart health. Proflavanol C keeps the blood vessels functioning properly, which is vital for circulating blood from the heart, which is where it is created, to where it needs to go.

The superior formula of two powerhouse antioxidants is what is responsible for Proflavanol C’s ability to help you maintain healthy blood pressure.

The proanthocyanidins are present in grapes, juice, red wine, and most other dark-pigmented fruits like cranberries and blackberries. Vitamin C is also found in fruits and is associated with a healthy heart, particularly because it supports vascular health.

Vitamin C and grapeseed extract combine to support cardiovascular health by helping to lower cholesterol. They do this by ensuring that the proteins and lipids present in the body’s cholesterol do not convert into damaging toxins.

Proflavanol C also promotes vascular health because it protects the cells lining the blood vessels and arteries – the endothelial cells – from stress caused by free radicals. It’s important to keep these cells healthy because they’re responsible for the restriction and dilation of the blood vessels.

Promoting Collagen Production

It’s crucial for the heart and the blood vessels to be healthy for overall cardiovascular health, and both of them need collagen. Vitamin C is an essential part of the physiological production of different types of collagen throughout the body. The human body isn’t able to make Vitamin C on its own, so it’s important to get it from diet and/or supplements.

Proflavanol C helps the body to produce collagen and, in turn, aids in promoting the overall health of the cardiovascular system and its different parts, from the heart all the way to the capillaries.

Collagen is vital to the cardiovascular system and the body as a whole. Collagen is frequently injected into the skin in order to make it look more youthful and is responsible for the skin’s elasticity. As the human body ages, collagen often starts to break down. Vitamin C helps to generate collagen for both a more youthful heart and appearance.

Antioxidants can also protect the skin from the effects of exposure to the sun, meaning that you can protect your skin from the inside by taking Proflavanol C. Providing such protection can minimize premature aging. It is still important to observe smart sun safety measures in order to keep your skin looking young.

Proflavanol C and the Production of Immune Cells

Your body’s immune system helps to keep you free of disease by fighting pathogens – these are the nasties that can wear you down and make you sick. A weakened immune system means that you could be at a greater risk for illness.

Being exposed to pathogens is increasing from day to day. No longer are we just getting a cold, or the very worst, the flu. We are facing invisible pathogens in proportions unknown in recent history and it’s making our most trusted microbiologists and medical fraternity nervous.

Nutrienting your body with fresh foods, vegtables and fruit is your first port of call to give your immune system a boost, but this is not always easy. Doubling up on Proflavanol from USANA could help to keep your immune system at it’s peak, simply because of the combined powerhouse antioxidants, grapeseed extract, and high absorbance vitamin C.

The grapeseed enhances your cells’ immune reactions while Vitamin C helps in the generation of antibodies, which are your body’s natural resources for warding off sickness.
