Resveratrol is an antioxidant, commonly found in red grapes. It seems to mimic the anti- aging effects of calorie restriction. Animal studies indicate it decreases the harmful effects of high fat, high calorie diets. This is probably due to increased fat metabolism by activating the SIRT- 1 enzyme.
SIRT- 1 improves blood sugar metabolism, insulin sensitivity and cell survival. Pterostilbene is a more potent derivative of resveratrol found in blueberries. Animal studies show that pterostilbene has similar effects to resveratrol but reaches higher levels in the blood and lasts longer in the body. Grape seed polyphenols are a source of antioxidants for the maintenance of good health.
Product Indications:
– Resveratrol is a natural antioxidant found in grapes that is believed to enhance the activity of a group of genes called Sirtuins (SIRT- 1) – These so called Longevity genes’ function in protecting and repairing cells thereby enhancing cellular survival. Pterostilbene is a methylated form of resveratrol found in blueberries
– Pterostilbene has the following advantages over resveratrol: better absorbed, more active and metabolised slower
– Latest research indicates using both forms together is more effective than separately. Grape seed polyphenols are a source of antioxidants for the maintenance of good health
