Reservatrol

Reservatrol was first isolated in red wine for its ability to reverse the negative effects of a fatty diet. Sometime ago, the media reported that the French seem to be protected from their fatty food diet by the wine they drink with lunch or dinner. Reservatrol, an important health ingredient, was isolated from the skin of red wine grapes. Many health benefits have been attributed to reservatrol. It is a powerful antioxidant that contributes to  healthy blood flow, healthy capillaries, and cholesterol wellness.

The New York Times, June 2, 2008 reported that reservatrol like ingredients in red wine may offer a break on aging. It is also possible that reservatrol may activate sirtuin which helps contribute to weight loss.

More striking for athletes is the hint that reservatrol may maximize performance or stamina. The article mentioned that couch-potato mice fed reservatrol were changed into champion athletes and were able to run twice as far on a treadmill before collapsing. This finding brings up interesting possibilities. For example, what would happen if a marathon runner took reservatrol? Could reservatrol improve their performance and speed? I believe it can since it has been shown to improve the circulatory system. I am sure at this moment some athletes are already taking it to improve their performance.

Here are some excellent reservatrol supplements:
