Frequently Asked Questions
What is new with OPC Synergy®?
Due to sourcing issues, Standard Process has secured a new supplier for the grape extract in OPC Synergy®. This new source comes from the wine-making process in France and contains added sulfites.
Where do sulfites come from?
Small amounts of sulfites are naturally occurring in some foods including apples, rice, onions, and cabbage.1 They are also used as a food additive to increase shelf-life or to halt fermentation.
Why are sulfites listed on the label of OPC Synergy®?
Some individuals can be sensitive to sulfites, resulting in reactions such as hives, asthma, or anaphylaxis. Products containing added sulfites must be labeled as such if sulfites exceed 10 parts per million.2
If someone is allergic to sulpha drugs, will they have a reaction to sulfites?
Not necessarily, these are two separate allergies with no direct connection to each other. Sulfites are different than sulpha drugs, antibiotics, and other medication that contain a sulfonamide molecule.
