Extensive research suggests that grape seed extract is beneficial in many areas of health because of its antioxidant effect to bond with collagen, promoting a youthful skin, cell health, elasticity, and flexibility. Other studies have shown that proanthocyanidins help protect skin from sun damage to prevent wrinkles and skin cancer, and improve vision and flexibility in joints, arteries, and body tissues -including the heart - and blood circulation by strengthening capillaries, arteries and veins.

Epidemiologists, who study populations for the incidence of specific diseases, discovered decades ago was that, in many Asian cultures where green tea is consumed regularly, there were significantly fewer findings of many forms of cancer. In fact, the more green tea consumed - especially over ten cups per day - the lower the cancer rate, including that of skin cancer. Each cup of green tea contains 50 milligrams of EGCG. Green tea extract and EGCG:

• Reverse the appearance of wrinkles.
• Stabilize and enhance collagen in skin.
• Renew aging skin cells DNA synthesis 37 times.
• Reverse age related thinning of skin.
• Protect hair follicles.
• Inhibit cancer cell growth.
• Protect skin from photoaging.

Orally-ingested EGCG has a significant protective and therapeutic effect for many forms of internal organ cancers, but not for sunburn or aging. Orally-ingested EGCG has a weak effect in the skin.

EGCG has to be applied directly on the skin at the right dose to have the most meaningful effect. In fact, more is better, up to an optimum concentration. Use of this nutrient is very safe.
