Resveratrol

[drscott]

I've added resveratrol to the mix of no-fat cottage cheese, flax seed oil, bilberry extract, and diindolymethane I eat with breakfast every morning. While I could instead drink several glasses of red wine every day, the side-effects from alcohol wouldn't be good for me. I don't want to be that French.

Sorry to barge in here unannounced and all. Found you through a friend of a friend of a friend...lost track of how it started...

I noticed that there could be heart benefits from this. I had a heart attack 8 years ago and a few afibs (atrial fibrillations) since then, and wonder about the benefits for me. Been okay for two years now and have taken off over 40 pounds.

Why do you take it?

So this doesn't come in pill form? I wonder if I would keep using it if I had to measure and scoop and all that stuff. It is hard enough for me to remember to take my vitamins.

Why? because as a natural extract of plants that has been ingested without harm (and some apparent benefits) throughout history, it can't possibly hurt, and evidence points to major benefits in several areas.

It DOES come in pill form, but to get a therapeutic does you'd have to take many pills a day. At that rate the powder costs much less, and is no extra hardship to add to hte cottage cheese mix I already eat.
