Grapes, Wine and Chocolate - Resveratrol - Naturopathic Medicine

[fa icon="calendar'] Dec 7, 2014 9:00:00 AM / by Dr. Isadora Guggenheim

High dose resveratrol helps to prevent Alzheimer's progression

Grapes, wine and chocolate all contain resveratrol and high dose oral resveratrol (500 - 1000 mg daily) helped stop the progression of Alzheimer's by stabilizing amyloid-beta 40 levels in cerebrospinal fluid and plasma.

Resveratrol and its metabolites penetrated the blood-brain barrier and affected the central nervous system at small concentrations.  

Resveratrol is safe and well-tolerated.  At Second Nature we use the best standardized resveratrol for our patients to prevent and treat neurological disorders.  Botanicals for better brain health.

Resveratrol contains RES a compound that decreases age-dependent cognitive decline.  

In a recent study, participants did better with cognitive tests, brain volume measurements, cancers were less frequent in the resveratrol group than in placebo group and RES patients lost more weight after week 26 compared to none in the placebo group. 

Most of my patients can't tolerate wine or chocolate and grapes can be heavily pesticided so Second Nature patients take top-of-the-line resveratrol.  Maybe you should stock up on Resveratrol and serve RES capsules as appetizers at your next holiday party. Why drink the wine and eat chocolate and grapes when you can cut to the chase with the active ingredients.  Look better and act smarter with resveratrol - nature's dynamite combination.
