GlossaryGrape Seed Extract

dietary supplement rich in antioxidants, often used for hair health

Grape Seed Extract (GSE) is a dietary supplement derived from the ground-up seeds of grapes, often used for its high concentration of antioxidants, particularly oligomeric proanthocyanidin complexes (OPCs). These compounds are believed to support cardiovascular health, improve circulation, and have anti-inflammatory properties. GSE is also studied for its potential benefits in promoting hair growth and combating conditions like alopecia due to its ability to improve blood flow and reduce oxidative stress.
