Health benefits at a glance:

Life Extension has identified certain compounds that mimic the benefits of a calorie restricted diet, a process that slows down aspects related to aging. 

These compounds include trans-resveratrol (which researchers contend is the most active constituent) and quercetin.

Why it works:

Resveratrol may be the most effective compound for maintaining optimal health and boosting longevity. It's a substance produced by a plant called Vitis vinifera when it is attacked by moulds. 

Because more and more pesticides are being used in modern wine making, the level of resveratrol in wine has plummeted. 

Red wine contains resveratrol, but the quantity varies depending on its origin, the time of harvest and other factors. 

Nowadays, red wine contains only 1-3 mg of resveratrol per litre, even the most robust ones. After years of relentless research, a resveratrol extract is now available as a dietary supplement.

The science behind the product:

Resveratrol  

Research funded by Life Extension showed that resveratrol mimicked many of the favorable changes in the way genes of calorie-restricted animas are read. 

Other studies demonstrate resveratrol’s other positive benefits, such as healthy insulin sensitivity, enhanced mitochondrial function, reduced inflammation and protection against the effects of an unhealthy lifestyle. 

Quercetin

The formula Optimized Resveratrol Elite™also delivers quercetin, a botanical compound that complement resveratrol.

Quercetin is an important bioflavonoid that also helps inhibit oxidative stress and promotes a healthy inflammatory response, promotes cardiovascular health and helps maintain already-healthy blood pressure.

How to use:

Please take according to the dosage and use guidelines under supplement facts, or as recommended by a healthcare practitioner.
