Resveratrol 150 mg 60 capsules

Resveratrol is a natural polyphenolic compound found in certain plants and fruits, including grapes, berries, apples, and peanuts. The resveratrol extracts in nutritional supplements mostly come from the root of the Polygonum cuspidatum plant, also known as the Japanese knotweed plant. Although resveratrol is best known for its potential cardiovascular benefits, for years it has been the subject of numerous studies focusing on its other potential benefits.
Studies have examined, for example, its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-aging and phytoestrogen effects. Resveratrol may also have the potential to be beneficial in some chronic diseases. Its ability to mimic the effects of calorie restriction, i.e. reducing energy intake, has also been studied in animals, which may have a positive effect on lifespan.
The benefits of resveratrol were first noticed when researchers noticed that yeast and microbes, insects and other animals fed with resveratrol often experienced a significant increase in lifespan as a result of adding resveratrol to their diet. Several additional studies further confirmed its incredible anti-aging benefits, which were demonstrated in studies on fruit flies, fish, mice and nematodes, all of which lived longer compared to control groups not fed resveratrol supplementation. But it must be pointed out that it is still open whether the consumption of resveratrol will extend human life, the length of human life naturally poses challenges for this kind of research.

Antioxidant and anti-inflammatory and metabolic properties

Resveratrol acts as a potent antioxidant, which means it helps protect cells from damage caused by free radicals. By neutralizing these harmful molecules, it may contribute to reducing oxidative stress and inflammation in the body.
Chronic inflammation is associated with various diseases, including cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and certain types of cancer. Resveratrol has been shown to possess anti-inflammatory properties and may help reduce inflammation markers in the body, contributing to overall health and disease prevention.
Resveratrol has also been investigated for its effects on metabolic health. Some studies suggest that it may improve insulin sensitivity, which can be beneficial for individuals with diabetes or those at risk of developing the condition. It may also contribute to weight management by activating enzymes involved in energy metabolism.

Potential brain benefits of resveratrol

Resveratrol can have a positive effect on brain function in several ways. It has been linked to improving brain flexibility or synaptic plasticity and, like some other plant compounds, is also believed to activate the anti-aging gene Sirtuin 1 (SIRT1), which helps cells live longer. SIRT1 promotes neuronal survival, reducing neurodegeneration and promoting brain health and longevity. Its anti-inflammatory properties also create a protective lining in the blood vessels of the brain, reducing the risk of their damage. Because of this, it can even be helpful in terms of memory and cognitive health.
