Resveratrol: Better in Resveralite


Most often associated with our choice Merlot, resveratrol is a compound present in the skins of labrusca and muscadine grapes fermented to make red wine, our beloved after-dinner relaxant. Lately there's been a lot of hype crawling along the proverbial grapevine about the potential benefits of resveratrol, and whether or not its presence in alcohol can increase heart health or extend the life span. But that begs the question of how you can stay healthy with resveratrol if you don't drink?

As evidenced by studies in laboratory rats, researchers have speculated that the compound may extend the average life span, which has gone from 47 in 1900 to 78 in 2010. Most notably, resveratrol exhibits properties which help slow the aging process, and prevent age-related infirmities from maturing early in life.

Long understood to reduce platelet aggregation and free radicals in the body, resveratrol contributes to the prevention of both coronary heart disease and atherosclerosis. The compound also exerts anti-tumor effects in the body, and as the New York Times reported, there's also a correlation between red wine and the prevention of prostate cancer.

At the same time, however, it wouldn't be prudent to spread the promotion of alcohol consumption as a healthy lifestyle, considering its harmful effects on the liver. So while drinking red wine is no doubt the preferred way of ingesting resveratrol, the compound is also found in topical creams and weight-loss supplements like Resveralite, known for its power to trigger a class of proteins in the body that regulate metabolism, called sirtuins.

It's also important to consider that the amount of resveratrol in red wine depends on how long the grape skins were fermented, meaning the level in each could vary. Where topical creams and anti-aging supplements are concerned, however, there's a definite percentage of how much resveratrol is contained in each supplement, keeping consumers aware of how much they're ingesting in terms of health benefits in the long term.

As researchers continue to make progress in the anti-aging tract, albeit slowly and carefully, we can expect resveratrol to continue its crawl along the grapevine as one of the more revered anti-aging solutions.

Restore Your Youth


Some people are afraid of heights and spiders, others, small spaces and darkness. There’s no question that a substantial amount of people are afraid to grow old. More than anything, they are afraid of looking old; getting wrinkles, shrinking in size, losing their memory, hearing, etc. Yet an anti-aging supplement like Resveralite puts aging worries to rest.

One of the active ingredients in Resveralite is Resveratrol, which restores the elegance of youth and provides the nutrients necessary to slow the aging process. With all-natural and scientifically tested ingredients, Resveralite depress age-relate diseases and fights bone deterioration. Resveralite also contains rich molecules that act as detoxifying agents for muscles and fat tissue soiled by the build up of toxins.

Resveratrol, an all-natural ingredient found in red wine, is chock full of antioxidants. As noted by popular health websites like WebMD, Resveratrol is part of a group of plant compounds called polyphenols that exhibit extremely powerful antioxidant properties. This steady flow in the blood stream counters the build up of toxins by breaking them down. Like the benefits of green tea, Resveratrol can reduce the risk of heart disease and memory deficiencies like Alzheimer’s.

Most often ingested through red wine, Resveratrol is a standing testament to why most Europeans, who drink it on a daily basis, have such long life spans. And because Resveralite is comprised of a generous amount of trans-resveratrol, everyone can enjoy that luxury.

When Age Goes Up, Weight Doesn't Have to


Coined the “elixir of life”, Resveralite holds the key to longevity. It’s fittingly comprised of ingredients that all share the same general common denominator; the deceleration of blood sugar and harmful cholesterol levels. Both green tea extract and gymnema sylvestre, a plant native to India used for the treatment of diabetes, are active ingredients in Resveralite that can lower both bad cholesterol and triglycerides. Gymnema sylvestre also allows carbohydrates to burn up and turn into energy rather than become stored as fat in the body.

Green tea extract, acting as a neutralizer for free radicals in the body, makes up a sizeable percentage of Resveralite. Free radicals are produced naturally within the body, and cause cells within us to die. They can also be found in UV rays and cigarette smoke, which contribute to early onset aging. Green tea extract also has a hand in regulating blood pressure, aiding digestion, and preventing a number of life-altering diseases like atherosclerosis, cancer, and inflammatory bowl disease.

Another key ingredient is hydroxycitric acid, which has been used in Herbalife’s “Snack Defense” and has been known to slow glucose uptake after meals. Extracted from the garcinia cambogia plant, hydroxycitric acid has been known to decrease appetite by increasing a neurotransmitter that might affect appetite control, called serotonin. This is a large part of why Resveralite doubles as both an anti-aging pill and a weight-loss supplement.

Made up of so many beneficial ingredients, Resveralite knocks out rapid aging concerns and weight worries all in one punch.
