Benefits of using resveratrol.

By Collin De Ruyck

Resveratrol is a well known chemical found in the skin of the red grapes that are supposed to have a few immensely benefiting advantages. Currently these have shown the features of anti-cancer and also can lower the blood pressure. However, all these tastes have proved to be right in mice and rats and in some other organisms. The Resveratrol is still to be proved on humans and there is still a speck of doubt if the element would have the similar kind of effects on mankind. Like every medical element the Resveratrol should also be taken in a certain dosage. In reply to many media reports about the element Resveratrol it only looks like each and every supplement company offers one or the other form of grape complex so as to make a quick buck. The supplement as released by these companies all claim to contain a certain percentage of Resveratrol and thus this justifies the popularity of the same.

Very recently a certain amount of attention been focused on a certain journal called Nature. The article thus published has demonstrated the facts that both the improved healths as well as survival as was seen in the mice were actually fed on a high-fat diet. This diet was then again supplemented with Resveratrol. This is the same flavonoid which has been shown an increment in the life span of many organisms like the yeast, flies, fish and even worms. These researchers have all linked the benevolent effects of this element with the mechanisms underlying caloric restriction. This has also shown that such scientific approaches could well be utilized to fight a few chronic disorders as well as aging diseases.

Most of the reputable Resveratrol food supplement brands use an "enteric coating" that protects Resveratrol molecules from stomach acids and allows for direct absorption through intestinal walls. Enteric coating is however a complex and costly process, something that increases retail price of Resveratrol food supplement brands. In that light, it is not difficult to assume that low-priced Resveratrol food supplements may not have the desired enteric coating. They may not be as effective as claimed by the manufacturer. If you wish to derive max health benefits, you should thus look out for Resveratrol food supplements that come with enteric coating. They may be pricey, but if you factor in the immense health benefits that they provide for, you will realize that it's only a small price to pay.

The presence of Resveratrol is highest in red wine in comparison to other natural and processed food sources. If you wish to give Resveratrol a try, you may thus have to include red wine along with your meals. Moderation is however recommended since Resveratrol has been reported to induce numbness, anxiety, loss of appetite and other side effects, especially when taken above the recommended daily dose. You may be a white wine lover, but if want Resveratrol, white wine may not do you any good.

That is because for making white wine, grapes are fermented after taking out the skin whereas in case of red wine, the skin is included. Resveratrol occurs mostly in the outer skin and hence the difference in its content in red and white wine. - 17274
