Resveratrol is a type of Salvestrol Phytoalexin (a class of Polyphenol compounds produced as a part of a plant's defense system against disease). Resveratrol is produced (in the plants in which it is present) during times of environmental stress, such as adverse weather, insect attack, animal attack or pathogenic attack. It is both water-soluble and fat-soluble.

Resveratrol comes from Polygonum
cuspidatum root, also known as Japanese
Knotweed or Tiger Cane. Studies have
shown that resveratrol supports a healthy heart and has the ability to activate
the Sirtuin family of proteins. This activation is thought to mimic the
anti-aging benefits of a reduced calorie diet and in turn help support the
overall health of living cells.† A synergistic effect is provided by
the addition of grape seed extract and its active compounds known as
OPC’s. This class of compounds has been
shown to provide more antioxidant benefits than vitamin C and E.
+Leucoselect grape seed extract is made by Indena, one of Europe’s
leading herbal extract manufacturers.
