Optimized Resveratrol

Longevity and cellular health support.. You are getting just 40 mg of trans-resveratrol here. The manufacturer includes fenugreek galactomannans to improve absorption. That is a scientifically valid strategy for this notoriously hard-to-absorb compound. But even with better absorption, the base dose is simply too small to reach clinical relevance. Add in a microscopic 3 mg of quercetin, and this formula falls flat.

5.5/10
DECENT

Trans-resveratrol at only 40mg when clinical studies use 150-500mg. Quercetin at only 3mg when the minimum effective is 250mg. Both leading ingredients are at homeopathic levels relative to what research shows works. The galactomannan-fenugreek carrier is an interesting bioavailability approach, but enhanced absorption of a negligible dose is still a negligible dose.

What We Like

  • Uses trans-resveratrol which is the bioactive form
  • Includes a galactomannan matrix to improve absorption
  • Smart theoretical synergy between ingredients

Watch Out For

  • Severely underdosed resveratrol at just 40 mg
  • Quercetin dose is basically non-existent at 3 mg
  • Relies too heavily on assumed absorption multipliers
  • Proprietary blends (Resveratrol Elite™ Proprietary Blend, Bio-Quercetin® Proprietary Blend) - individual doses hidden
