What is Grape Skin extract?

Grape skin extract are industrial derivatives from whole grape seeds that have a great concentration of vitamin E, flavonoids, linoleic acid, and OPCs. Typically, the commercial opportunity of extracting grape seed extract constituents has been for chemicals known as polyphenols, including oligomeric proanthocyanidins recognized as antioxidants.

Grape skin extract is rich in Oligomers Procyanidin Complexes (OPC) , which is a powerful antioxidant. In addition to the ultra rich potence of over 20 times higher than Vitamin C. Grape skin extract is also 50 times better than Vitamin E. Grape skin extract helps to strengthen the immune system, and also slowdown the aging process, which is of very high market value. Procyanidin B2, which is the most active compound to neutralize free radicals that cause aging, is available only in Grape Seed.

In Europe, OPC from grape skin extract proanthocyanidins has been adopted and used for several decades as a safe and effective compound. Grape skin extract has no record of any acute or chronic toxicity, no harmful reaction even under very high dosage. For these reasons, grape skin extract proanthocyanidins has become a new star in the food supplement market.

Polysaccharides (Complex carbohydrates)
Dm, Am, G
long chains of several hundred or thousand monosaccharides held together by 1-4 or 1-6 glycosidic linkages.
functions: energy storage(ex. Starch and glycogen) and alpha structural support( ex. cellulose and chitin).
(F#m, C, F on fret 3, F on fret 5)
starch is made up of 2 polysaccharides: amylose and amylopectin see fig. 9 on pg. 31).
F#m, G,D, A
Amylose is a coiled chain of unbranched alpha glucose held together alpha 1-4 glycosidic linkages. (See Fig 11a on pg. 32)
Amylopectin is composed of a main chain of linked alpha glucose attached by alpha 1-4 glycosidic bonds and branch points formed by alpha 1-6 glycosidic linkages. Plants store starch in chloroplasts, amyloplasts and other plastids.
Dm, Am, G
Storage form of glucose in animals is glycogen. Glycogen is structurally similar to amylopectin, however, the alpha 1-6 branch points are shorter and more frequent which results in a molecule that is highly branched.
F#m, C, F on fret 3, F on fret 5)
Humans store glycogen in the liver cells and the muscles. Enzymes in these tissues hydrolyze glycogen into single glucose molecules
F#m, C, G, D
for energy during physical activity.
Cellulose is a major structural component of the plant cell wall. It is the most abundant organic substance of earth. It is a straight chain polymer. of B-Glucose held together. by B 1-4 glycosidic linkages.
F#m, G, Am, C
In order for a reaction to occur between the hydroxyl groups on the carbon numbers 1 and 4, every other B-Glucose must be inverted. Humans do not have the enzyme to hydrolyses the B(1-4) glycosidic linkage, therefore cannot obtain energy from cellulose.
Chitin is a polymer of N-acetylglucosamine which makes up the hard exoskeletons of insects and crustaceans.
Coprophage
-eat their own poop to absorb missed nutrients
-had pelts during the day that are hard, and have soft ones at night which are edible to reabsorb the nutrients.
