Grapeseed Extract 100 mg
Unknown
Overview
The supplement contains well-researched ingredients like Vitamin C and a specific form of Trans-Resveratrol, with known benefits. However, the proprietary blend for grape seed extracts makes it impossible to verify effective dosing for these components, limiting the overall assessment of effectiveness.
The Good
Provides a good dose of Vitamin C for immune and antioxidant support.
Includes Trans-Resveratrol, a well-researched antioxidant.
Contains specific branded forms of grape seed extracts (Masquelier's Original OPCs, Leucoselect Grape Seed Extract) known for quality, although their individual amounts are hidden.
The Bad
The primary active ingredients, Masquelier's Original OPCs and Leucoselect Grape Seed Extract, are part of a proprietary blend, preventing clear dosage assessment.
The total proprietary blend amount (100mg) is likely insufficient to provide optimal doses of both Masquelier's OPCs and Leucoselect Grape Seed Extract, as research often uses higher amounts (e.g., 150-1000mg for GSE), suggesting potential underdosing.
Trans-Resveratrol at 20mg is at the lower end of some effective dose ranges, which typically start from 150mg.
Is it for you?
Best For: Individuals seeking antioxidant support, those interested in cardiovascular health, or improving skin health.
Skip If: You are pregnant or breastfeeding, have a bleeding disorder, are taking blood thinners (anticoagulants), or have a known allergy to grapes.
