Happy Monday everyone,
I just wanted to share a few health stories that caught my eye today, as I am busy finalizing the affiliate program and working on a few other projects.
I think we sometimes forget that heart disease is the number one killer of women in America and tend to focus on heart health for men. A new study has come out that also reveals women are more likely to die than men in the first 30 days after a heart attack. Check out http://abcnews.go.com/Health/HeartFailureNews/story?id=8412796 for more details.
As usual we are keeping our ear to the ground for the latest anti-aging breakthroughs and news. Here is an interesting study showing that even a low level of physical fitness throughout life can improve lifespan.

That is it for today, but don’t forget to take your Resveratrol.

What exactly is Resveratrol?
One question we get a lot is “Exactly what is Resveratrol?”
Resveratrol is found in the skin, seeds, and stems of grapes as well as plants like Polygonum Cuspidatum (Japanese knot-weed). Scientific research has found that Resveratrol has a vast assortment of properties that are beneficial to human health. It is a full spectrum anti-oxidant, is known to boost cellular energy and helps balance the immune system.
The secret to anti-aging and longevity lies with Trans-Resveratrol, the active form of Resveratrol. Trans-Resveratrol remains active only when sheltered from sun light. In this pure, ultra beneficial form, Trans-Resveratrol has been proven in studies to activate the SIRT1 “Longevity Gene,” enhance cellular productivity and decreases cellular autophagy. Several research studies have shown that Trans-Resveratrol exhibits antioxidant properties, anti-inflammatory properties, chemopreventive agents, anticarcinogenic properties, cardioprotective effects, neuroprotective properties, and caloric restrictive behavior.
The key to cellular energy lies within the mitochondria. Studies have shown that Trans-Resveratrol has ability to increase the number of mitochondria as well as the ability of the mitochondria to produce energy products for the cell. In promoting the increase in mitochondrial function and number, Tran-Resveratrol increases the energy expenditure and improves the aerobic capacity of the individual.
It is important to understand that Trans-Resveratrol is the only antioxidant clinically proven to trigger the SIRT1 “Longevity Gene.” This gene fights age related illnesses, such as: heart disease, Alzheimer’s and more. When purchasing a Resveratrol supplement, I recommend checking the amount of Trans-Resveratrol in the supplement.
Many products on the market hide their ingredients so that consumers won’t realize that the product has little to no Trans-Resveratrol. ReserveAge Organics’ products always proudly display their ingredients to let consumers know that it contains the highest quality Trans-Resveratrol.

Oprah Fights Back
For many months now, a number of companies and Web sites selling Resveratrol have been illegally using images of Dr. Oz and Oprah, sometimes even with fake endorsements. Allegedly, these companies dupe people into ordering free trials only to begin charging them incredible monthly amounts of over $80 for a monthly supply of Resveratrol, which some reports say do not contain trans-Resveratrol at all. To make matters worse, the companies refuse to cancel these reoccurring charges, leaving some people forced to report the credit cards as stolen.
This month, Oprah and Dr. Oz have officially filed suit against many of these companies seeking various damages and penalties. You can read more about it here http://www.forbes.com/2009/08/20/oprah-winfrey-resveratrol-business-healthcare-oz.html
As a Resveratrol company, we are ReserveAge Organics are pleased to see these companies exposed and terminated. On a nearly daily basis, we speak with people who have been scammed by such companies and hear their unfortunate stories. In addition, we see the damage that companies like this do to the reputation of the legitimate Resveratrol industry. The faster these companies are removed, the better for everyone.
A few common Resveratrol scams to watch out for:
Fake endorsements are common: Oprah and Dr. Oz do not endorse any brand of Resveratrol. If you have signed up for a free trial of Resveratrol based on an alleged endorsement by Dr. Oz or Oprah, you have fallen victim to these scam artists.
No trans-Resveratrol: Many companies sell Resveratrol without any trans-Resveratrol included. Please check the ingredients to ensure that the product has as least 100 mg of trans-Resveratrol per dosage. In addition, if you are paying more than $30 for a 100 mg trans-Resveratrol dose, then you are paying too much.

New Alzheimer's Research
While we have known for some time that polyphenols, like Resveratrol, may be able to protect the brain from Alzheimer’s disease, exciting new research is suggesting that taking long-term small dosages may be better than single, large dosages. This new research comes out of
In most testing, animals are given a single, large dose of the polyphenols, and their levels are then measured to see how much of the chemical is reaching the brain. This new testing, however, used smaller dosages and continued to feed the animals the polyphenols over the course of the entire experiment. Incredibly, the amount of polyphenols reaching the brain increased each day. In fact, by day ten, twice as much of the polyphenols were being absorbed as compared to the first day.
This lends credence to the belief that the best way to protect yourself from Alzheimer’s is through regular supplementation with polyphenols like Resveratrol.
The full article will be published in the September issue of the Journal of Alzheimer’s Disease. Check out the story here: http://www.sciencedaily.com/
Have a great day everyone and don’t forget to take your Resveratrol.
