New scientific studies conducted by LifeGen Technologies and DSM Nutritional Products, Inc. indicate that low doses of resveratrol, a natural constituent of red wine, may have significant health benefits for the heart and other organs.
Researchers found that low doses of resveratrol in the diet of middle-aged mice mimic the effects of caloric restriction (diets with 20-30% fewer calories). Findings also revealed that resveratrol helped to prevent the decline in heart function, which is a natural result of aging.
Previous research had indicated that resveratrol in high doses extends lifespan in invertebrates and helps prevent early mortality in mice consuming a high-fat diet. The new studies extend these findings, suggesting that resveratrol in low doses may elicit many of the same health benefits as a reduced-calorie diet. Researchers now believe that dietary supplements or foods that contain even small amounts of resveratrol may significantly promote cardiovascular health.
DSM Nutritional Products, Inc. has recently released Resvida, a high-purity form of resveratrol, which is ideal for use in many types of dietary supplement, food and beverage formulations.
