Enzergen OPC Advanced with CoQ10 is a powerful blending of bioflavonoids containing Oligomeric Proanthocyanidins and CoQ10. Oligomeric Proanthocyanidins are recognized as powerful antioxidants. Regular intakes of adequate Proanthocyanidins may improve cell health, skin elasticity, flexibility of joints, blood circulation and vision.Manually mode:CoQ10 is also a powerful anti-oxidant, this enzyme promotes metabolic fuel efficiency within your cells, thus stimulating better cellular energy production and proper heart functioning. Understanding Free Radicals vs. Anti-oxidants: Free Radicals are damaging compounds in the body that alter cell membranes, tamper with DNA, and even cause cell death. Free radicals occur naturally in the body, but stress and environmental toxins (including ultraviolet light, radiation, cigarette smoking, and air pollution) can also increase the number of these damaging particles. Free radicals are oxidative substances that have unpaired electrons, they are called free radicals because they can combine easily with other substances and snatch out their electrons and eventually becomes a free radical itself, thereby creating a domino effect of damaging cell membranes that may lead to the advancement ageing cycle and other chronic diseases. The cell damage can easily lead to gene mutations, which later becomes the start of cancer. Anti-oxidants on the other hand, gives out electrons easily, and so can function to neutralize oxidant, restoring proper health to our cells. Similar to our body, metal as it becomes oxidize, rust gradually destroys the entire physical properties of metal. On the same way, as we are exposed with free radicals our body is slowly oxidized causing several ailments to manifest. How powerful is Oligomeric Proanthocyanidins (OPC)? OPC is known to be super anti-oxidant through its very potent activity to neutralize free radicals and known to potentiate or prolonged the life span of other anti-oxidants such as vitamin C and E. The compounds coming from grapes especially Grape Seed and red wine are highly concentrated with Vitamin E, flavonoids, linoleic acid, and OPC's. Pine bark on the other hand is one of the popular sources of OPC wherein in it is first discovered. Pine bark is second to Grape Seed Extract in terms of OPC concentration and potency, other sources are known to be coming from Blackurrant and Citrus extract. As an anti-oxidant, OPC is regarded to be 20 times more powerful than vitamin C and 50 times more so than vitamin E. OPC's are exceptional at neutralizing peroxynitrate. It also reduces the amount of superoxide available that makes peroxynitrate and helps to regulate nitric oxide production so it remains in balance. That means your immune system works better, your joints hurt less and your blood flows better. OPC may do even more than to prevent diseases;
