The antioxidant Resveratrol is a polyphenol which is found in red wine, peanuts, soy beans, and pomegranates and possesses a wide range of biological effects It was first discovered to have an anti-aging properties by Sinclair, other HMS researchers, and their colleagues in 2003 and reported in Nature.. Since Resveratrol’s properties seem ideal for treating neurodegenerative diseases.
The results of testing published in November 2008 on www.sciencedirect.com supports the concept that onset of neurodegenerative disease may be delayed or mitigated with use of dietary chemo-preventive agents that protect against ?-amyloid plaque formation and oxidative stress such as resveratrol.
Studies have shown the benefits of drinking red wine (lower incidence of heart and circulatory diseases and cancer ) also due to its content of grapes skins, seeds, bark, twigs etc., but its larger content of these beneficial substances if compared to white wine should not trick us into believing its assumption is beneficial no matter the alcohol contained in red wine. Alcohol produces long-lasting damages on liver and circulation that definitely undo the benefits given by grapes.
In order to reap the real anti-oxidant benefits from the elements above, we have to consider that we require a far higher amount than the one available by simply eating the raw fruit or drinking the juice and this is available today only in form of supplement.

Have you had a chance to watch 60 Minutes or Barbra Walters segments last weekend about it?
It show promise in mice. For mice, has shown major health improvements including blood sugar control. Keep in mind that 6 out of 10 major drug successes in mice – fail in humans. But the limited human trials showed promise and there are some patients that claim it helps. However, this could be the ‘placebo effect,’ and only empirical data under controlled experiments can tell for sure. It will take a few years for these clinical trials to conclude.
You can get supplements of the extract right now. While it is safe, it is not guaranteed to work. Before making a decision, you should watch all the videos. Here’s the a recap from all the trustworthy shows:

I did some research and learned the following: You can only get 1-2mgs of it in a single bottle of wine. So, white, it’s a good excuse to drink wine, but you really won’t get much benefit. There are resveratrol supplements on the market – but many do not have the required strength and they don’t work for everyone. The only way to know for sure is to try the supplements. Hope you find this interesting… its a future hope for the fountain of youth and treatments (not cures) for countless diseases.
