FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
What about food and wine sources of resveratrol?
While many sources, including red grapes, plums, raspberries, blueberries, and red wine, contain resveratrol, the amounts vary depending on growing conditions, harvest times, and a variety of other factors. Red wine (cited as a reason for the “French Paradox” that people in France frequently enjoyed meals with rich foods and wine, but also had lower body weight and better cardiovascular health) contains very little resveratrol per serving. In fact, red wine may contain as little as 2 mg of resveratrol per liter, meaning that an entire bottle of red wine (.75 L) contains only 1.5 mg of resveratrol. The amount of resveratrol in white wine is even less.
Resveratrol Complex makes it much easier to get consistent levels of resveratrol into your daily regimen. It provides 100 mg of highly concentrated 98% resveratrol in every capsule, every day. And resveratrol is combined with the most clinically studied, enhanced absorption curcumin available, BCM-95®, plus quercetin for even greater synergistic benefits.*
Why do you use root extracts of Polygonum cuspidatum for your resveratrol source, rather than red wine grapes?
Polygonum cuspidatum is a highly valued herb traditionally used in tea preparations. Although resveratrol is associated with grapes and red wine, Polygonum cuspidatum delivers a far more concentrated source of this beneficial botanical compound.
Is there a difference between turmeric, standard curcumin, and BCM-95 curcumin?
Yes. Turmeric is the plant that provides curcumin. Turmeric typically contains about two to five percent curcumin, so taking an unstandardized, powdered turmeric product means that very large amounts would be required to get a beneficial amount of curcumin. Additionally, curcumin is poorly absorbed within the gastrointestinal tract, so turmeric essential oil is combined with the BCM-95 curcumin in this formula, which greatly enhances absorption compared to turmeric or standard curcumin extracts. While turmeric is excellent when used as a spice, a high absorption curcumin extract, such as the clinically studied curcumin used in Resveratrol Complex, is a better choice for health benefits.*
Why is turmeric essential oil important?
First, turmeric essential oil is critical to helping curcumin absorb properly for its fullest benefits. Secondly, turmeric essential oil contains compounds called turmerones that have beneficial effects of their own. Chief among turmerones—and one of the best studied—is aromatic turmerone, often abbreviated as “ar-turmerone.” Research shows that ar-turmerone has many similar attributes to curcumin, and is independently a powerful component.
What is trans-resveratrol?
Resveratrol exists in two forms (known as isomers), trans and cis. The trans form is considered more potent and bioavailable than the cis form. The resveratrol in Resveratrol Complex is trans-resveratrol.
How does GammaSorb® work?
GammaSorb (gamma cyclodextrin) has been shown to improve the absorption of certain fat-soluble nutrients by enveloping them in a water-soluble shell that is best described as an open-ended bucket or truncated cone. To be more specific, the gamma cyclodextrin plant-derived molecules surround fat-soluble ingredients in this microscopic structure, the exterior of which is water soluble. This exterior structure escorts the ingredients through the walls of the intestines and allows their fat-soluble contents to be more efficiently absorbed.
