The ingredients come from the grapevine and act as a natural mixture. About the plant itself: - Appearance: a woody climbing shrub with large, lobed leaves and small, inconspicuous flowers that ripen into juicy green or red grapes - Distribution: Europe, western Asia; cultivated in all warm temperate regions - Main constituents: condensed tannins (proanthocyanidins), flavonoids, fruit acids - Plant parts and preparations used: mainly leaf extracts Because of their structure, proanthocyanidins can scavenge harmful free radicals and have an antioxidant effect. They inhibit enzymes that make capillaries fragile, thereby maintaining the elasticity of the veins. The flavonoids also present provide additional anti-inflammatory effects.
