Resveratrol, Wine Or Grapes?
Mark Juliano asked:
The burning question asked by so many consumers, patients, doctors, medical practitioners and scientists – is it the Resveratrol, wine, alcohol or grapes – that provide all the medical benefits that have been so widely reported?
The simple answer is yes!
Scientists discovered the French Paradox decades ago, and determined that despite a high fat diet, the French lived longer and healthier, and the causes had largely to do with their daily dose of red wine. Other studies have investigated grape skins, grape seeds, and whole grapes with positive results. Countless scientific university studies (Harvard, University of Pennsylvania, Marywood University, Yale, University of Michigan, University of Connecticut, Wake Forest, Oregon State, University of South Carolina, Ohio State, and many more) have proven that wine grapes, wine, Resveratrol, Quercetin, polyphenols, and even alcohol in small quantities provide significant health benefits.
When visiting Dr. Joseph Baur at the University of Pennsylvania he said that Resveratrol is only one of 19 compounds found to increase SIRT genes, and increase longevity and abate age-related illnesses. Seventeen (17) of these are found in red wine grapes. He also told me that it is definitely the interaction among Resveratrol, Quercetin, and all the other polyphenols that provide the bioactivity and bioavailability in animals and humans.
By what mechanism does this interaction take place?
In the scientific world, that’s like asking why your best friend is a nice person. There are many factors to consider. It’s relatively straightforward to test an individual compound like Resveratrol or Quercetin, but testing a blend of polyphenols is much more difficult. Still, for example, it is known that Resveratrol stays in the blood stream longer when consumed as red wine, versus from a supplement. Of course the nutraceutical supplement is of higher quantity, but Resveratrol-alone is less bioactive, though when mixed with other polyphenols like Quercetin and red wine extracts, it becomes much more bioavailable. Many studies are underway and are unlocking the mechanisms for this interactivity among polyphenols including Resveratrol.
This is why Resveratrol, Quercetin (#2 SIRT gene activator and activator of Resveratrol), and a 90% polyphenols blend from whole red wine grapes in ideal. This precise blend was studied by Dr. James Smoliga in 2006 at Marywood University, and it was shown in sedentary (average) subjects, that strength, endurance, cognition, and memory were significantly improved.
It’s just a matter of time before scientists discover the precise interaction among Resveratrol, and other red wine grape polyphenols. They know there is a positive interaction, and know that Resveratrol-alone, Quercetin-alone, and red wine grape polyphenols alone all have positive benefits, and work in concert with one another. All that’s left to figure out is how.
