Resveratrol has gained recent popularity as an anti-aging superstar.
It came to scientific attention in the early 1990’s as a possible
explanation for the “French Paradox” — the low incidence of heart
disease among the French people, who eat a relatively high-fat diet but
consume large amounts of wine. Wines, particularly red wines, are known
as a source of low levels of resveratrol but now found to not be in
sufficient amounts.
Resveratrol occurs in two forms, cis and trans resveratrol, the
“trans” isomer is the beneficial substance that is biologically active.
Many other companies do not provide the health benefits of the whole
grape and use a cheap, low quality Resveratrol that has a purity of less
than 50%. One of the impurities often found in low quality resveratrol
is Emodin, which is used as a laxative and may cause stomach cramps. |
