60 Minutes Story – Part 2 – Continuation of other video on our Resveratrol youtube Channel. Resveratrol has been tested on mice and the results have been encouraging. In a test-video provided by Sirtris, two mice were fed a high fat diet for 12 weeks. But when placed on a treadmill, one mouse ran twice as far. He was given high concentrations of resveratrol. “You have fat mice, and you have fat mice with resveratrol. And the ones that are on resveratrol, they can run twice as far, and they live longer, about 20 percent longer,” Sinclair says. Other studies showed that among mice fed a high fat diet, those taking resveratrol didn’t gain as much weight as those not given the drug. Sinclair believes that resveratrol actually changes the physiology of the mice. The proof, he says, is in the post-mortems. “Their organs looked pristine, youthful, fat-free, and their physiology was just like they were dieting. But they were fat.” Convinced that they were on the right path, they fast-tracked the resveratrol based drug into human trials on people with untreated diabetes. The results were impressive: it significantly lowered glucose and insulin levels, without the patients changing their diet or taking any other drugs.

There are two types of Resveratrol that you can find in the market. These are the Trans Resveratrol and the Cis-Resveratrol that you can purchase for you to take. The trans- is the natural form while the cis- is the synthetic type of Resveratrol that is a product of the chemical synthesis. Most manufacturers and even doctors recommend the trans- form of the said supplement. This is the type of Resveratrol that can be found in red wines, grapes and grape juice. In choosing the Resveratrol that you can safely take, make sure that you choose one with the trans- label. This is the best supplement that you can take to get the effects that you may want to have less the side effects.

Trans Resveratrol actually has many health benefits that you can have especially when you take the type of Resveratrol. The health benefits would include protection from the damage that can be caused by free-radicals, prevention of arthritis, protection of the blood vessels thus protecting the person from certain cardiovascular diseases and cancer. This supplement may also help on the alleviation of the symptoms women experience during menopausal period. The trans- form of Resveratrol is also known to normalize insulin levels and the blood pressure and it also clears out plaques from the arteries. These are just some of the few diseases that can be prevented and managed by the said supplement, studies show that this supplement shows a promising result when it comes to health maintenance and disease prevention.

Although the exact dosage is not yet determined, studies already show that taking Resveratrol pill regularly can give you the protection that you need against some diseases and aging. Studies also show that supplements with higher levels of trans- form of Resveratrol can help the body better because it is sealed in capsules. It is important that the trans- form of the supplement should not be exposed or else it may break down into the cis- form when it will be exposed to light, heat or oxygen making it less effective as a supplement. Thus it is very important for you to choose the supplement that contains the Trans Resveratrol.
