20 Health Benefits of Resveratrol

* Reduces oxidative stress * Improves exercise tolerance
* Induces weight loss * Supports muscle recover
* Improves insulin sensitivity * Reduces plaque formation in the brain
* Anti-cancer properties * Anti-viral properties (inhibits growth of yeast)
* Brain-boosting powers * Flame fighter – reduces inflammation
* Cell protector * Extends life expectancy, turns on longevity gene
* Lowers risk of heart disease * Increases cholesterol bile secretion
* Increases testosterone * Raises nitric oxide
* Lowers blood pressure * Protects skin from cancer
* Increases adiponectin * Improves endothelial dysfunction (cardio protective)
In studies, resveratrol has been shown to mimic caloric restriction, which in mammals has been shown to increase life expectancy by more than 30 percent!
Studies have found that trans-Resveratrol (not cis) is the only bioactive form. Dr. Mark Houston, M.D. in conjunction with Biotics Research developed ResveraSirt-HP, a high potency, 250 mg capsule, containing a 99% standardized extract of trans-resveratrol (the highest potency available) derived from the roots of Polygonum cuspidatum (Japanese knotweed). In addition to resveratrol, ResveraSirt-HP is enhanced by the addition of quercetin and IP-6. Quercetin has demonstrated the ability to decrease resveratrol metabolism, allowing for a longer half-life, while IP-6 functions as a strong metal chelator, adding stability to the formula.
