Grape Seed Wine Pill
Switches on Longevity Switch

Grape seed and its extracts may be another “fountain of youth”, in pill form. The French people eat a very rich diet full of fat yet have little heart disease. More and more scientific evidence is showing that it is the Resveratrol in red wine and grapes and their seeds which are causing this positive reaction. Grape seed extract contains chemicals known as polyphenols, (including the subclass of proanthocyanidins), which are recognized to be effective antioxidants.

Calorie restriction has been shown to also prolong life. This has been tested and shown over and over in mice and other animals including monkeys.. In humans it is shown by examining the life cycles of human populations which live longer than we do. Americans have an average life span of 78 years. The people of Okinawa live to 100 in great numbers and there average diet is1200 to 1500calories a day. The American diet is 2400 to 3000 and more. This calorie restrictive diet has been shown to increase age by at least ten years. What does calorie restriction and Resveratrol have in common you ask?
Dr Sinclair of Harvard Medical School and research teams at two universities, The University of Connecticut and Brown University recently completed studies using fruit flies and worms which shows Resveratrol mimics the results of a calorie restricted diet. Fruit Flies and worms are not people to be sure but it opens up great possibilities. Studies have also shown that Resveratrol is also capable of overcoming diets rich in fat. Resveratrol is found naturally in grapes (skin and seeds) in cocoa and of course in red wine. It can also be found as a stand alone extract for those who would like to go directly to the source. This is why our whole food natural supplements contain both grape seed extract and some have stand alone Resveratrol as well.

Grapes and their seeds have been found to be helpful in helping to control many of the health issues of our modern society. Research has been done for years on both the foods and the supplement form. The scientist are continually coming up with new information some positive and some contradictory. We do know however that grape seed and the nutrients found inside are one of the best antioxidants, because they are full of proanthocyanidins. This nutrient is found in many of our formulas as a basis of the antioxidant protection our products offer the user. Listed below are just a few of the health conditions grape seed and the extracts have been found to help or positively influence.
