Reserveage Organics ingrediant discussion

Today I thought I would share some information on some of the ingrediants you would find in Reserveage Organics and our various competitors products.

Trans-Resveratrol: Trans-Resveratrol is the active form of Resveratrol that activates the SIRT1 Longevity gene. Most of the believed longevity benefits lie in the Trans-Resveratrol, so make sure your Resveratrol supplement contains it. An interesting fact about it is that if it is not extracted and encapsulated properly, the trans-Resveratrol becomes inactive.

Polyphenols: Polyphenols are known antioxidants and are believed to have many other health benefits. While they are nice to include for the added health bonus, they are not a necessary ingredient in Resveratrol supplements.

Grapes: Most grapes contain some amount of Resveratrol, though Muscadine grapes are known to have some of the highest amounts. Organic grapes are also known to produce higher amounts of pure Resveratrol, though few companies use them. Grapes are a great source of polyphenols as well.

Japanese Knotweed: The scientific name for it is Polygonum cuspidatum and it is a large leafy plant native to Asia, not just Japan despite its name. IMPORTANT: Japanese knotweed in its natural form contains emodium, a laxative. Make sure that the Resveratrol company you use removes the emodium from the supplement. Emodin dosages under 20 MG should not cause problems.

Quercetin: Quercetin is a polyphenol that is believed to have some anti-cancer and other health properties. Some companies use it in their Resveratrol products because it is believed by many to aid Resveratrol absorption into the blood stream.

Collagen: Some companies, like Reserveage Organics, offer collagen with some of their Resveratrol products. Collagen can improve the fabric of the skin and when combined with Resveratrol is believed to be capable of fighting wrinkles, sagging skin and give the user a more youthful glow.
