Type A Proanthocyanidins
Oligomeric proanthocyanidins (OPCs) are among the most common polyphenolic substances found in plants. Proanthocyanidins are an integral part of the human diet, and are found in high concentrations in fruits such as apples, pears and grapes, as well as in chocolate, wine and tea. Generally, the OPCs for nutritional supplements are extracted from grape seeds and pine bark. However, proanthocyanidins have various classifications. For example, grapes and European blueberries are rich in type B proanthocyanidins, and it is only the American red cranberry that is rich in type A proanthocyanidins. Phytocyst® contains high levels of type A proanthocyanidins - a total of 60 mg per tablet.
