Cranberry and proanthocyanidins

The American cranberry is a fruit native to North America that is nowadays also grown in some parts of Europe. Fresh cranberries are low in energy, whereas dried cranberries are considerably higher in calories. Cranberries contain vitamins and minerals as well as a number of plant compounds, including proanthocyanidins. Proanthocyanidins are polyphenolic compounds found not only in cranberries but also, for example, in bilberries and blueberries. In a standardised extract, the content of the compound is fixed: the extract in OstroVit Cranberry Extract VEGE contains 50% proanthocyanidins, so one capsule provides 300 mg of extract, of which 150 mg are proanthocyanidins. This keeps every daily dose consistent and the amount clearly known.

How to use?

Take one capsule a day and swallow it with a glass of water. Do not exceed the recommended daily dose. Taking the capsule at the same time every day, for example in the morning, helps you remember it. The product is intended for adults. At the recommended use, one pack lasts 120 days, or about four months. Keep the pack tightly closed in a dry place at 15–25 °C, away from direct sunlight.
