Antioxidant power
The concentrations of OPC measured in the aronia rank among the highest concentrations ever found in nature.
Oligomeric proanthocyanidins, also called procyanidins, abbreviated as OPC, are found in varying concentrations in virtually all plants, especially in their peels and pips.
As the human body cannot produce OPC itself, just as it cannot produce vitamin C, it must be taken in with food.
Native tribes – for example the Native Americans – have known about the high value of OPC for a long time and have taken advantage of it.
OPCs defend plants against insect attacks, fungal diseases and environmental toxins, UV rays and ozone.
Conclusion OPCs:
They are found for example in berries such as the aronia. They are accredited with a large number of promising properties which are proved by scientific findings.
