Combat the effects of ageing with Resveratrol!

Special Offer to Grownups customers: $10 OFF Abeeco’s Super Strength Resveratrol* (Coupon Code "= GrownUps")

Trying to defy old age is an age old desire. But what if you could live a long healthy life with a lot less effort?

While it’s impossible to stop the aging process completely, it is possible to slow it down and decrease its impact on the way you look and feel.

You may have heard about Resveratrol on the TV show 60 minutes in January this year.  Not only does Resveratrol seem to slow down aging by activating the body's natural defenses, it appears to therapeutically intervene in people who are already experiencing signs of aging, including age related diseases. In other words, while it was originally thought to prevent the onset of disease, it may help in cases where disease has already set in.

Numerous animal studies and other research results have revealed that Resveratrol holds promise against an array of age-associated diseases/concerns, including;

• Breast and Prostate Cancer,

• Diabetes,

• Cardiovascular diseases,

• Works to protect collagen and elastin in the skin, hence reducing wrinkles and keeping skin looking younger

• Assists with joint mobility

• Promotes rejuvenation of cells, glands and organs of the body

• Boosts the levels of energy, strength and stamina

• Promotes circulatory and pulmonary functions to more youthful levels of efficiency

• Enhanced immunity against the causes of premature aging and poor health

• Fortifies muscular and skeletal systems for optimum performance

So what is Resveratrol?

A potent antioxidant, Resveratrol is a compound found in red wine, red grape skin, peanuts, some berries and in it’s most concentrated form in Japanese Knotweed – a traditional herb used in Japanese and Chinese medicine.  

How does Resveratrol work?

Resveratrol, in combination with the bioflavonoid quercetin and the polyphenols from red wine, activate a family of genes called siruins (“silent information regulator proteins”) which are known as ‘longevity genes’ – protecting and repairing cells and enhancing cellular survival.  In everyday life these ‘longevity genes’ are very rarely activated and only usually kick in under conditions of extreme stress. Once kicked in they then slow the processes that lead to cell death.

In addition, Resveratrol is an extremely potent antioxidant.  Put simply, antioxidants act against oxidation.  Oxidation is a chemical process that naturally occurs as the cells of the body use oxygen for their everyday processes.  This process also creates harmful substances known as free radicals, the volume of which can increase substantially through our lifestyle choices, poor diet, smoking, polluted air, various drugs etc.

The ‘French Paradox’

Many scientists believe Resveratrol is responsible for the ‘French paradox’. The French paradox is the observation that the French suffer a relatively low incidence of coronary heart disease, despite having a diet relatively rich in saturated fats. We all know the French consume a moderate amount of red wine. Red wine is a source of Resveratrol.
