Resveratrol, the remarkable antioxidant that is produced naturally in some plants, has continued to make the news as an anti-aging supplement. Now, researchers in Great Britain have discovered that taking resveratrol orally can improve brain power as well.
The recent European study utilized health adult participants, who started by taking a series of cognitive tests. After the tests were taken, researchers gave some participants either a 500 mg or 1000 mg resveratrol pill, and others a placebo pill. Participants then re-took the cognitive tests. The findings showed that participants who took the resveratrol pill performed better on the tests than those who took the placebo pill. Researchers from the study stated that they believe the reason for this improvement can be attributed to increased blood supply to the brain, a benefit of resveratrol.
Previous studies have already demonstrated that resveratrol also inhibits blood platelet aggregation that can lead to dangerous clots that can cause heart attacks and strokes and can help prevent cell damage that contributes to aging and cell degeneration. Hearing loss is a key factor of the aging and cell degeneration process. Additional tests on animals have demonstrated increased life span, a decrease in fat-related deaths, increased movement and agility, and enhanced endurance. The natural antioxidant resveratrol has also been shown to fight cancer in vitro at initiation, promotion, and progression stages.
Resveratrol is found naturally in the skin of grapes, blueberries, peanuts, and various other plants and is also available in supplements such as PROHIERAN. The advantage of the PROHIERAN solution is that it is tailored to promoting the healthiest living conditions for the cells of the inner ear, naturally, as well as supporting overall cellular health and wellness.
