It was recently reported in the news this year, that a reduced-calorie diet promotes a longer life span. Calorie restriction promotes living longer by promoting beneficial changes that numerous clinical studies show increase the life span.
Resveratrol, a beneficial phytochemical naturally present in red grape skins and red wine, has been shown in studies to promote a longer life span by working in a similar fashion as calorie-restriction. In other words, Resveratrol provides the same benefits of calorie-restriction without the calorie-restriction!
This is not the first study to look at calorie restriction as a means of living longer. It is well known that calorie restriction promotes living longer. However, this study was conducted on monkeys, instead of mice. Monkeys that were put on a calorie-restricted diet lived longer and were healthier than the monkeys that did not.
Resveratrol, a beneficial phytochemical naturally present in red grape skins and red wine, has been shown in clinical studies to provide the same benefit: a longer life span!
Resveratrol promotes a longer life span the same way that calorie restriction does. By influencing certain genes, calorie restriction promotes longevity. By affecting the same genes, resveratrol promotes longevity the same way.
However, the amounts of resveratrol that were used in clinical studies greatly exceed the amounts which can be naturally obtained by diet. In other words, in order to get the same benefits as promoted on the news and in the clinical studies, you need to take resveratrol as a supplement. If you are interested in taking resveratrol as a daily dietary supplement, try Res-Q Resveratrol, a pure and potent supplement which contains resveratrol in the popular, more biologically active form of trans-resveratrol.
