Description

Resveratrol (3,5,4'-trihydroxystilbene) is a natural polyphenolic phytochemical with a variety of biological activities. Resveratrol was first isolated from the roots of the Japanese plant Polygonum cuspidatum, where it is produced in response to environmental stressors such as injury, fungal infections and UV irradiation [1]. Resveratrol is also naturally present in many other plant species such as mulberries, peanuts and grapes. Numerous studies have shown that resveratrol has protective effects on biological processes, many of which are important for cancer and/or cardiovascular disease, confirming the potential use of resveratrol in the field of natural medicines and dietary supplements.

Health Benefits

  • Antioxidant

The polyphenolic structure of resveratrol confers antioxidant activity. By neutralizing harmful molecules, resveratrol helps reduce the risk of chronic diseases and aging-related issues.

  • Anti-Inflammatory

Chronic inflammation is associated with a variety of diseases, including cancer, diabetes and neurodegenerative diseases. Resveratrol has been shown to reduce inflammation by inhibiting prostaglandin production, cyclooxygenase-2 activity, and nuclear factor-b activity.

  • Protects Cardiovascular Health

A large number of studies have shown that resveratrol may contribute to cardiovascular health. It is believed to help increase high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol, reduce low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, and improve overall cardiovascular function.

  • Prevents Cancer

Resveratrol has shown promise in preventing and slowing the growth of cancer cells in vitro and animal studies. It can inhibit the growth of cancer cells by increasing apoptosis and cell cycle blockage.

  • Prevents Diabetes

Resveratrol may help to prevent and treat diabetes. A study has showed that resveratrol has antihyperglycemic effects in diabetic patients, which is related to its improvement of blood glucose parameters, inflammation, and insulin resistance [2].

  • Anti-Aging

Resveratrol has anti-aging properties. Its anti-aging mechanism is mainly to improve oxidative stress, alleviate inflammatory reaction, improve mitochondrial function, and regulate apoptosis.

  • Neuroprotection

Some studies have shown that resveratrol can protect nerve cells from damage, thus providing potential benefits for neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease.
