Lets face it. Many people saw the 60 minutes or Barbara Walters stories about the benefits of resveratrol, but not really understand what it is or what he does.
Resveratrol is a compound of the family of flavonoids are found mainly in red grape skins and seeds. Although its existence has been known since 1941, was not until 1992 that scientists discovered that was contained in red wine.
This discovery seemed to fill some missing pieces of the puzzle of the "paradox French ". From the time of Joan of Arc, we have tried to understand why the French with their diet high in fat, calories and" lifestyle Oolala have such long life expectancy and low heart disease. It had been thought that the French habit of drinking 1-2 glasses of red wine at every meal is not a factor, but researchers now I think this is important.
1] The most obvious benefit is that resveratrol is a flavonoid. These are chemicals that give fruits and vegetables their colors and distinctive flavors. They are also antioxidants, which cleanse unstable oxygen atoms called free radicals. Although part of our body's immune system usually much more than that are needed.
A useful analogy is to think of excess free radicals as a version of his body in automobile engines, exhaust, necessary but not a nice area. Free radicals have been linked to cancer and more than 50 diseases ranging from cataracts to heart problems varied. Flavonoids are scavengers generally more potent than vitamins A, C or E.
2] Scientists thought the main advantage of resveratrol was only a powerful antioxidant. However, several studies have been led to believe it plays an important role in stimulating Sirtuin family of enzymes, especially Sirt 1. This is the second 60 minutes was the story.
Sirt 1, also called the DNA repair gene because it maintains DNA to mutate into cancer. It also helped to slow the aging process, reduce our cholesterol levels and increase our energy.
The difference is that antioxidants are fixing the results of the inefficiency of our body. Sirt 1 allows us to more effectively start.
3] Finally, but not least the benefits of resveratrol is security. The only real side effects are stomach pains, dizziness and sometimes pain in the joints. However, these were seen only in high doses. Supplements Mega 100mg or more is not necessary. Something to keep in mind that only 2-3 mg per bottle of red wine.
In conclusion, resveratrol need help, not high doses. There are 50 to 60 active flavonoids that survive digestion. All are necessary, like other enzymes and nutrients.
We do not know the whole process of Sirte 1 stimulation. In fact, this lack of knowledge emphasizes the importance of a balanced diet and supplement use variety of nutrition.
