RESVERATROL obtained from red grapes, Japanese knotweed root, and other plant sources, may have a host of beneficial health effects, such as anti-cancer, anti-diabetes, antiviral, neuroprotective, anti-inflammatory, improved athletic endurance, life-prolonging effects, and according to a recent report resveratrol may reverse the dangerous buildup of fat in the liver caused by alcohol abuse.
The Harvard Medical School in the USA has found that resveratrol increases the production of a protein called SIRT1, which may increase human lifespans dramatically. The Harvard Study may explain the "French Paradox", that resveratrol in red wine may contribute to the low incidences of coronary heart disease in France, despite the high dietary intake of saturated fats.

Why should you take resveratrol?
Truly Natural Pharmaceutical Grade Resveratrol 99% is an exceptional supplement alleviating many age-related health problems.
Anti Aging
Calorie restriction (CR) is a dietary regime thought to improve health and slow the aging process in animals and humans by limiting dietary energy intake. A CR diet is a dietary intervention which has been documented to increase maximum lifespan and eliminate a variety of diseases. Research at Harvard University found that resveratrol mimics a CR diet in animals and extends their life by 20%-40%. Just like a CR diet, resveratrol may reduce or eliminate a variety of ailments such as heart disease, diabetes, cancer and joint disease. It may also lead to improved athletic endurance and extended human lifespan.
Heart Health
The World Health Organisation suggests that resveratrol single-handedly reduces cardiovascular risk by 40%. Resveratrol is more effective than vitamin E, protecting against a wider range of free radicals to prevent oxidation of low-density lipoprotein (LDL). It inhibits platelet aggregation by blocking the action of thrombin and several other aggregating factors. It promotes production of nitric oxide which relaxes and dilates the arteries. It reduces blood triglyceride and cholesterol levels as well as the intrinsic hypertensive agent endothelin-1.
Cancer Prevention
Resveratrol is the only natural product with such strong evidence to show it stops cancerous cell development at various stages: a study published in “Science” showed that resveratrol blocks the proliferation of cancerous cells during three important stages of development. A study in which mice were given resveratrol over 18 weeks showed a reduction in skin tumours of 98%. Resveratrol destroys cancerous cells whether or not they are either oestrogen-dependent, or have the gene, p53. An Austrian study showed that resveratrol prevented certain types of cancer from metastasising to bone. Other research has demonstrated that in some cases, it improved the results of chemotherapy. It can also block the cancer-promoting effects of a linoleic acid-rich diet. Unlike many drugs, resveratrol protects, rather than destroys, healthy cells. Its anti-cancer action is diverse, powerful and sophisticated.
Brain Health
Preliminary studies suggest that resveratrol - administered singly, and in combination with other antioxidants - protects the brain against oxidative stress. Oxidative stress is known to play a major role in most neurodegenerative diseases.
Anti Inflammatory
A Chinese study has recently shown that, when injected immediately after injury, resveratrol is as effective as the drug prednisone at protecting against inflammation of the spinal cord, but with additional benefit of antioxidant protection. A study of rats pre-supplemented with resveratrol for 21 days has shown that it improves the prognosis, and reduces the permanent effects of stroke.

Health Warning
Not for pregnant or lactating women.
Until more is known about the estrogenic activity of resveratrol in humans, women with a history of estrogen-sensitive cancers, such as breast, ovarian and uterine cancers, should avoid resveratrol supplements.
Resveratrol has been found to inhibit human platelet aggregation in vitro. Theoretically, high intakes of resveratrol (e.g., from supplements) could increase the risk of bleeding when taken with anticoagulant drugs, such as warfarin (Coumadin), and antiplatelet drugs, such as clodipogel (Plavix), dipyridamole (Persantine), non-steroidal anti-inflamatory drugs (NSAIDs), aspirin and others.
