Resveratrol
Brand: Juvenon
Dr. Feb's Analysis
Scientific Mechanism
The primary active compound in this supplement is trans-resveratrol, extracted from Polygonum cuspidatum. At a cellular level, resveratrol functions as a potent polyphenol and antioxidant. It mimics caloric restriction, activating sirtuins (SIRT1), a family of proteins linked to metabolic regulation and longevity. By scavenging free radicals, it protects mitochondrial DNA from oxidative stress, preserving cellular energy production. This mechanism supports healthy aging by maintaining cellular integrity and promoting efficient metabolic function.
Key Benefits
Key benefits include:
- Supports cellular longevity and anti-aging pathways
- Promotes cardiovascular health and circulation
- Provides potent antioxidant protection against oxidative stress
- Enhances mitochondrial function and energy metabolism
Usage & Safety
The recommended dosage is 1 capsule daily. For optimal absorption, take with a meal containing healthy fats, as resveratrol is fat-soluble. Consistency is key for cumulative benefits. Consult a healthcare provider before use, especially if taking blood thinners (anticoagulants) or antiplatelet drugs, as resveratrol may interact with these medications.
