Resveratrol is a super powerful antioxidant and polyphenol found in the skin of red wine grapes that has been shown to reduce/slow certain aspects of aging, specifically cardiovascular aging.

Then eat the grapes and skip the middle man.

[EDIT: Both we and the grapes have evolved together for a very long time to be mutually beneficial. Do we really need a "product" to replace the grapes? Do we really need 10,000 grapes worth of nutrients? Can we really "hack" nature without consequences? Just asking.]



You'd be eating 25-100 cups of grapes to get the amount of resveratrol in that drink.

Capsules would seem the cheapest if you believe the claims.


But omg, grapes have calories!!11!

I say, have a cup of tea instead.


Each bottle of Preventiv has a case of wine's worth of Resveratrol. Eating grapes on your own won't cut it... unless you can find the resources and means to devour 10,000 grapes?
