Researchers Tell Morley Safer Red Wine Substance "Resveratrol Could One Day Lengthen Lives". "Now, scientists across the country have identified a substance in red wine called resveratrol that they believe might do more than just protect the heart, but could - in very high concentrations - significantly extend life by preventing a number of age related illnesses. If they're right, we all may soon be taking a pill that could give us an extra decade or two of healthy old age."

In the quest for the fountain of youth, from stopping telomerases from disappearing to enhancing our inherent longevity, science has long been looking around at how cells and organisms age. We now ask, what are the latest scientific discoveries? As many have heard, it is in acitvating or enhancing our Sirtuins genes
What
are Sirtuins?
Sirtuins are a family of genes (or class of enzymes) involved
in an organism's ability to withstand a stressful environment, such as
excessive heat or scarcity of food or water, have the power to keep its natural
defense and repair activities going strong regardless of age. By optimizing the
body's functioning for survival, these genes maximize the individual's chances
of getting through a crisis. And if they remain activated long enough,
they can also dramatically enhance health and extend its life span. In
essence, Sirtuins represent the opposite of aging genes. Sirtuins are
longevity genes, the keys to extending human life span while banishing diseases
of old age. Scientists have discovered two ways to activate an stimulate our
Sirtuins genes- restricting calorie intake and supplementing with
Resveratrol. By taking in highly absorbable receptor specific nutrients,
it is possible to stimulate and support cell repair and optimise mitochondrial
function.
ResveraSIRT: RESVERATROL- high potency transresveratrol 250 mg The anti-aging benefits of resveratrol have been associated with the fact that it functions as a sirtuin activator. Science has now revealed amazing effects of Resveratrol on Cancer, Bacterial Infection, Viral infection, Inflammation, Free Radicals, Diabetes (type II) Alzheimer's Disease, High Cholesterol, High Blood Pressure, Fat metabolism, Mitochondrial activation, The Cardiovascular System, Age Reversal and Longevity. How does it work? As you probably know, mitochondria are the little furnaces inside your cells. Mitochondria burn nutrients and fats into energy. Unfortunately, as we age, our mitochondria begin to deteriorate and our metabolism begins to slow. RESVERATROL activates a special enzyme called SIRT-1, which creates mitochondria. And by doing so, it increases your energy, helps you maintain healthy blood pressure, healthy blood sugar, protects your liver and since it's a highly potent antioxidant, resveratrol directly supports your heart and circulatory system too.
Doctor Mark Houston, a leading US physician in Functional Medicine in union with Biotics Research Corporation, has developed nutrient combinations that reflect the latest scientific reviews and clinical trials on Sirtuins, Cardiovascular Health and Anti-aging. Resveratrol product being the key, is highly supported by VasculoSirt and EFA-SirtSupreme.
Science is pushing the frontiers of nutrient-gene interaction fast and hard. The principle ingredient he's working with is TRANSRESVERATROL, derived from red wine. Although, before rushing for your bottle of Merlot, the therapeutic dose has been shown to be at the equivalent level of a few thousand glasses. We recommend consuming the highly concentrated nutritional form for therapy, and saving the dilute form in moderation for social relaxation!
High potency transResveratrol250mg Anti-Aging Sirtuins gene activator, by Biotics Research
Biotics Research Corp in conjunction with Mark Houston, M.D. who is Associate Clinical professor of Medicine at Vanderbilt School of Medicine, have developed this Resveratrol-containing product. This is a very high potency resveratrol product. Specifically, this products was developed to support a healthy vascular system and to promote healthy aging. Resveratrol is known to stimulate production of the class of enzymes called Sirtuins.
Sirtuins are known to affect:
cellular/energy metabolism
cell survival,
fat metabolism,
insulin resistance
cell repair (anti-aging)
DNA repair
response to stressors
Lab test reports find many health benefits such as anti-cancer, anti-viral, neuroprotective, anti-aging and antiinflammatory, and is found to be very cardio protective and very vascular protective and helps imporve insulin sensitivity .
Each capsule of High Potency Transresveratrol supplies 250mg of pure Trans Resveratrol. Quercetin, a bioflavanoid, is added to help slow the metabolism of Resveratrol, since it is metabolized quickly. Also included is IP6 (Calcium Magnesium Phytate), a 6-phosphate ester of Inositol derived from rice. IP6 is also a supporter of the cardiovascular system and aids in the metabolism of insulin. It is used in this supplement for its metal chelating activity to help stabilize the the formula.
ResveraSIRT-HP High Potency Transresveratrol 250mg **Each capsule contains: Trans Resveratrol 250mg Quercetin 25mg IP6 (Calcium Magnesium Phytate)! 25mg other indredients: Gelatin, water and glycerin.
Recommendation: One (1) capsule per day; or up to four (4) times daily as a dietary supplement or as otherwise recommended by your healthcare professional.
note: As a result of extensive news coverage, sales of resveratrol supplements greatly increased in 2006. There is also concern in the scientific community that many of the currently-available resveratrol supplements contain little or none of the active ingredient. Because of Biotics' reputation in the healthcare and research community physicians and patients can rest-assured that this is the finest most pure supplement of resveratrol on the market. It had better be because the "real stuff" is expensive. Biotics, because they buy resveratrol by the kilogram offers 250mg capsules for a lot less.
The following 'SIRT' Products are recommended by Biotics Research:
EFA-Sirt Supreme supplies a unique, highly concentrated essential fatty acid blend, providing an extremely effective relative combination of EPA, DHA and GLA, with all natural mixed tocopherols, specially formulated to be high in y(gamma)-Tocoherol. Essential Fatty Acids are required for energy production in the body, for cardiac function, for the health of hair, skin and nails, for hormone production, brain function, and (extremely important) for the integrity of the very structure of our cells
VasculoSirt State of the art support for healthy cardiovascular function Now Dr. Mark Houston, in conjunction with Biotics Research have developed a revolutionary nutritional supplement designed to:Slow vascular aging, Promote vascular and heart health, Slow aging in experimental animals, Provide healthy support for blood pressure, cholestererol, glucose and insulin levels within normalranges.
E-200 Hy™(High Gamma Tocopherol) Vitamin E+ High Gamma Tocopherol is a concentrated blend of both gamma and alpha-tocopherols (plus tocotrienols), which support prostate health and have exceptional antioxidant and heart supportive and anti-aging properties.
Lipid-Sirt: a new product from Biotics Research product designed to support healthy cholesterol. The suggested dose is four capsules twice a day; therefore the 240 capsule bottle will provide a one month supply. Yes the product is expensive and the major reason for the expense is the pantethine component. Several years ago (over 20) Biotics Research had a lipid lowering product that contained pantethine and the product worked and worked well, however after a couple of years Biotics Research was forced to drop the product from the line because of the unavailability of high quality pantethine. High quality pantethine recently became available, hence the introduction of Lipid-Sirt.
