Resveratrol for its anti-cancer and anti-aging properties? Dr. Oz says you can live to 125 year taking this stuff. (But only if you take his brand.) It must be true since it was on Oprah. ResveratrolRecently 60 Minutes ran a story on Resveratrol's numerous benefits, which have been linked to protecting cellular health, extending the amount of time DNA has for repair and numerous other health benefits. Resveratrol is found in the skin of red grapes, berries, and peanuts, and it is also a constituent of red wine. A number of health benefits of Resveratrol have been reported such as anti-cancer, antiviral, neuroprotective, antiaging, anti-inflammatory, and life prolonging effects. It has been speculated that Resveratrol at low does may have cardioprotective activity by modulating vascular cell function, inhibits LDL oxidation, suppresses platelet aggregation, and reduces myocardial damage during ischemia-reperfusion. Besides, various studies had demonstrated that Resveratrol may block the multiple process of carcinogenesis at various stages: tumor initiation, promotion, and progression, which account for resveratrol’s chemopreventive mechanism. However, the experimental basis for such health benefit is not fully understood. One of the possible mechanisms for its protective activities is by down regulation of the inflammatory responses. |
