Resveratrol is a phenolic compound that has
been found to have strong antioxidant
activity. Plants create resveratrol to
protect themselves against the effects of
poor growing conditions and severe weather.
Resveratrol has been shown to reduce the
oxidation of LDL cholesterol, total
cholesterol and the risk of cardiovascular
disease.
There have been numerous studies that show
the benefits of moderate red wine
consumption on health. Red wine differs from
white in that it is fermented with the
resveratrol-containing grape skins present.
This process imparts the resveratrol (and
other antioxidants in the grape skin) into
the finished wine. Studies suggest that the
intake of red wine (and therefore
resveratrol) may yield health benefits.

Resveratrol is designed to promote
antioxidant health by fighting against the
effects of free radicals.* Antioxidant
protection can be important for your overall
health and wellness, as free radicals can
lead to the premature aging of cells.* Each
capsule supplies more Resveratrol than you

The research on resveratrol is so voluminous
that it’s not possible to cover it in one
article. In addition to the benefits
mentioned previously, resveratrol has been
tested for its ability to stop pain, stop
the growth of the bacteria that causes
stomach ulcers that can lead to cancer
(Helicobacter pylori), protect immune cells,
protect DNA, protect against skin cancer and
many other conditions. As pointed out
earlier, recently resveratrol became the
first-ever supplement known to activate a
longevity gene.
While it is important to point out that a
lot of the research on this wine extract has
been done only in test tubes or rodents, the
sheer volume suggests that resveratrol is
one of the most versatile and effective
plant compounds discovered so far.
Resveratrol represents a novel solution to
many common problems encountered by aging
humans.
