5 Benefits Of Resveratrol

5 Benefits Of Resveratrol

We started producing this supplement a little over 18 months ago when we saw the glut of research showing how important resveratrol could be for helping to support various aspects of health. 

In particular, resveratrol shines because it offers you a superior form of resveratrol, called trans-resveratrol.

But if you’re sitting here wondering why you’d want to take resveratrol in the first place then you ought to take a look at this.

We’re going to outline 5 good reasons to take resveratrol.

5 Undeniably Powerful Benefits of Resveratrol

Resveratrol is probably one of the more well-studied antioxidants in the world, and that’s because a few decades when we discovered it we immediately made associations between resveratrol and the lives of those who lived longer despite “bad habits”.

Now we know that resveratrol has protective effects on certain areas of human cells.

And this protection affords us various forms of support that can make our lives “better”.

Here’s how it can help you:

1 - Supports Healthy Blood Pressure: 

The more you do to support your heart health the better you’ll feel.

Resveratrol has been shown in several studies to help support normal blood pressure which decreases stress on the heart and also allows for the unobstructed passage of oxygen and nutrients through the body.

Studies on mice show that when mice were given foods containing resveratrol it helped to support blood pressure so that it fell within the normal range.

Studies in human subjects have also reached similar conclusions, that resveratrol can help aid additional treatments for the maintenance of normal blood pressure.  

2 - It May Help Us Live Longer:

One of the leaders in resveratrol research, Dr. David Sinclair of Harvard Medical School believes that resveratrol may be one of the most important supplements for helping to extend age.

He’s been researching resveratrol for years and concludes that resveratrol can take perfectly healthy people and help them live even longer.

Research surrounding resveratrol shows that it’s incredibly helpful at inducing systemic effects that elevate your cells ability to thrive.

According to this literature review, resveratrol has been proven to be effective in prolonging the lifespan of model organisms as much as 60 percent of the time. It is worth noting that studies exploring the impact of resveratrol on the aging process are in their infancy, and more research is needed.”

3 - Helps Support Joint Health:

A little-known fact about resveratrol is that it can help to support the health of your joints and relieve temporary pain.

The way it accomplishes this is via the way it helps to modulate inflammation at the joints.

Many kinds of temporary joint pain result when the body sends inflammatory agents to the site of joint damage that may result from overuse or normal day-to-day wear. 

There are studies that show when resveratrol is introduced into the body it helps to inhibit an inflammatory biomarker called TNF-alpha, which can help to reduce or even stop extended periods of joint swelling and pain.

4 - Can Keep Your Brain In Great Shape:

A brain is like a muscle in that the more you do to strengthen it, the better it will perform, even as aging sets in.

The addition of supplemental resveratrol into the body has been shown to offer brain-supporting benefits that may help to keep your brain working at maximum capacity years longer than your peers would experience.

How does it work?

Because resveratrol is an antioxidant, it has the ability to prevent free radicals from exhibiting negative effects on brain tissue.

Oxidative stress is one of the hallmarks of reduced brain function and taking resveratrol is believed to shield brain cells from oxidative damage.

Specifically, researchers believe that resveratrol can keep the brain strong by acting as a heavy-metal chelator, with anti-inflammatory and antioxidative properties.

And there are also studies that show resveratrol activates a compound called sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) which has been demonstrated to support the health of neuroblastoma cells from cytotoxicity and oxidative stress damage which helps them to thrive. 

 5 - It May Help You Lose Stubborn Belly Fat:

While you can’t drink glasses of wine daily and expect to lose weight, adding a supplement like Muscadine Grape into the mix could help you drop stubborn belly fat.

Natasha Turner ND, wrote the following about resveratrol:

One of resveratrol’s main advantages is that it can improve how your body handles what you eat and whether it’s stored as fat or burned for fuel known as insulin sensitivity. Research published in Nature showed that resveratrol protected mice from the harmful effects of a high-calorie diet, including heart disease, weight gain and diabetes.

Resveratrol appears to act on adiponectin, which is produced by our fat cells and helps us lose fat by improving our insulin sensitivity. Not only that, but according to a Purdue University study, this supplement may be able to block immature fat cells from developing and prevent existing fat cells from growing.

Human studies on resveratrol are conflicting in their results.

One that supports resveratrol for weight loss happened to be a small, but high-quality, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study by Dutch researchers.

The authors published their results in the journal Cell Metabolism in November of 2011.

In that study the researchers concluded men who took 150 mg of resveratrol daily improved their blood sugar, decreased liver fat, as well as boosted several factors related to blood pressure in the span of 30 days.

The men did not lose any weight, however, all the health factors that improved in the study are metabolic changes which generally lead to weight loss.
