This is a link to a piece on CBS News / 60 Minutes about a new antioxidant called Resverotrol, which takes the nutrients found in red wine & concentrates it for health benefits. It's said to have many benefits, relating to age- weight- heart disease-diabetes-cancer-auto immune diseases, etc. The studies showed the ability to prevent diseases + improvement of diseases already in progress.
Why not just drink more red wine I ask? (I LOVE my Wine!) The answer is that it would take about 1000 glasses of red wine a day to equal the amount of antioxidants in the 250 mg capsules! I don't love wine THAT much- I have some restraint!

My Dr. recommended it for me & I thought I would pass the information along. It's hard to tell if the antioxidants alone are helping or the combination of various techniques I (we) try towards the goal of health & well being on a large scale. I figure every little bit helps ; )
Anyway, I buy mine at GNC for about $20.00 (250 mg) the higher the mg's the higher the price. Mine is middle range, the highest I found was in the 400 mg range. 2 pills in the morning can't hurt if it means living a little longer with higher quality of life. And if nothing else- a few extra antioxidants can't be bad...
