Resveratrol is a protective compound produced by grapevines and other plants, in response to environmental stresses. It is a polyphenol, a natural antioxidant, which protects cells against naturally occurring substances known as free radicals.*

Resveratrol is a phytoestrogen.  Phytoestrogens are naturally occurring plant-derived compounds that are structurally similar to estrogen.  Plant estrogens are weaker forms of estrogen, yet are able to support the same physiological activity.*  As a phytoestrogen it supports women’s health during and after menopause.* 

It is believed that Resveratrol has a positive effect on bone and supports the health of bone-building cells (osteoblasts).  Therefore, Resveratrol may help to balance the bone building process as women age.

Zao® Resveratrol helps support cardiovascular health because it contains polyphenolic compounds that are known to possess antioxidant and vascular supporting properties.  In test tube and animal studies, Resveratrol decreased the “stickiness” of blood platelets and helped blood vessels remain open and flexible.*   As an antioxidant, it  helps to prevent unwanted oxidation of LDL cholesterol from free radical damage.

Zao® Resveratrol offers support against oxidative stress, promotes cardiovascular health and is an excellent addition to your overall health regime.
