Product Information

• Name: Procyanidin B4
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Procyanidin B4 is a type of proanthocyanidin, which is a class of flavonoids. This compound is predominantly derived from various plant sources, notably grape seeds and certain fruits like apples. Its mode of action is primarily through its antioxidant properties, which involve scavenging free radicals and reducing oxidative stress at the cellular level. Procyanidin B4 operates by stabilizing free radicals with its phenolic hydroxyl groups, thereby inhibiting lipid peroxidation and protecting cellular components such as DNA, proteins, and lipids from oxidative damage.
