How long can a human live? Has the elixir of youth always been within reach? David Sinclair, molecular biologist from Harvard Medical School, is sure about that. Let\u2019s meet resveratrol and its functions.<\/p>\n
The unique properties of resveratrol were already known in the ancient times. It was used not only to boost the function of circulatory system, but also as a remedy for the passing of time. Resveratrol is a polyphenol that occurs naturally in red grape skin, blueberries, eucalyptus or peanuts. This substance is also used in the industry as a food additive. Depending on the extraction method, we can distinguish between trans- and cis-resveratrol. The first occurs naturally in fruit, the second is a product of grape skin fermentation.<\/p>\n
Resveratrol is one of the best tested \u201eelixirs of youth\u201d. Its antioxidant activity is nearly four times stronger than that of vitamin E and C. Trans-resveratrol in the maximum acceptable daily intake is an ingredient of LONG and LIFE \u2013 products being part of our ANTI-AGING Formula \u2013 says Izabela Jab\u0142o\u0144ska from MedereLab. Although it could seem that this valuable substance provided in the form of alcohol can be more harmful than helpful, it is exactly the opposite. A great example are people living in Mediterranean countries. Their diet is full of saturated fats and wine, but compared to other countries the proportion of people suffering from circulatory system diseases is lower by half. This is because resveratrol contained in wine inhibits both the oxidation of polyunsaturated fatty acids and the aggregation of platelets, which means that it prevents the build-up of deposits in the arteries.<\/p>\n
The report about healing effects of resveratrol on circulatory system appeared nearly at the same time as speculations about its ability to slow down the aging processes. A famous scientist, professor David Sinclair from UNSW School of Medical Sciences and Harvard Medical School in Boston, conducted an experiment to find out if this substance can lengthen life. The test was conducted on animals, such as flies or mice, as well as on yeast cells. The result was absolutely astonishing! Aortic walls of the animals, which were dosed with resveratrol, became stronger and more elastic. The animals also showed a better motor coordination and a lower level of cholesterol. Besides, scientists paid attention to one of the metabolic products \u2013 NAD+, that is an oxidised form of Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide. The tests conducted on mice showed that the application of its precursor molecule (NMN) rejuvenate their cells.<\/p>\n
The results of the tests attracted wide interest, e.g. at NASA. The discovery of professor Sinclair\u2019s team can help the agency to protect the astronauts sent to Mars against dangerous cosmic radiation! It also enables to develop new cancer drugs. At the moment the attempts aiming at using NMN as a drug are in progress.<\/p>\n
Nobody has ever been so close to discover a safe and effective rejuvenating drug. If the tests end successfully, the drug can come onto the market within 3-5 years \u2013 claims Sinclair.<\/p>\n
The supplementation with resveratrol offers a lot of health benefits! Besides its heart-protecting properties resveratrol can be used supportively in the cancer treatment or to prevent hyperplasia of blood vessels. Resveratrol also provides protection against Alzheimer\u2019s disease and boosts the blood supply to the brain, which improves memory and general mental fitness. Thanks to appropriate supplementation you can maintain the hormonal balance. As a strong antioxidant, resveratrol significantly slows down the process of aging.<\/p>\n
When taking a decision about the supplementation with resveratrol, it is advisable to choose those supplements that contain its maximum acceptable daily intake.<\/p>\n
ANTI-AGING Formula from MedereLab is an innovative product on the market. This three-month supplementation programme contains carefully selected, complementary active ingredients. Apart from resveratrol, they include Withania somnifera and Astragalus membranaceus that have been proved to show anti-aging effects and positively impact our current and future health state.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
