Resveratrol belongs to a class of organic chemicals known as polyphenols and can be found in foods including the skin of grapes, blueberries and raspberries. It is also primarily isolated from Japanese knotweed (Polygonum cuspidatum).

These polyphenols act as antioxidants in the body, helping to eliminate free radicals and fight oxidative stress.

Resveratrol helps to protect grapes from the damaging effects of bacteria and fungi that would otherwise spoil the plant. It is also the main reason why so many people are advocating drinking more red wine and grape juice, thanks to several studies documenting resveratrol’s numerous benefits for heart health.

Japanese Knotweed contains high concentrations of trans-resveratrol, the active form of the compound most useful to the body, and is therefore quickly becoming the preferred source of the compound.

The Key Benefits of Trans-Resveratrol:

Heart Health 

Resveratrol in Japanese knotweed may reduce the chance of developing heart disease, cardiovascular complications and high cholesterol. In France, where red wine is drunk in high concentrations (and thus, large amounts of resveratrol is consumed), heart conditions are very uncommon.

Cognitive Health

Resveratrol has shown a measurable preventative effect against neurodegenerative processes that can affect neural pathways (RS Turner et al., 2015). Just as antioxidants can eliminate plaque and neutralise free radicals that can slow mental function and cause deterioration, resveratrol can keep brain pathways energised, preventing these tragic conditions.

Blood Pressure

There have also been encouraging results regarding resveratrol’s ability to modulate blood pressure.

Gastrointestinal Issues

By adding resveratrol-rich herbs to your diet, you can significantly reduce gastrointestinal distress. The herb acts as a mild laxative, which can help clear out your system and get your digestive processes back to normal.

Insulin Control

The resveratrol in Japanese knotweed decreases insulin resistance while improving insulin sensitivity, helping blood sugar regulation.

Longevity 

Research has shown that resveratrol may promote lifespan-extending effects and alleviate metabolic diseases through its activation of Sirtuins (Sir2), the "longevity genes." Sirtuins are genes that regulate cellular health and protect the body from deterioration and disease. 

It has also gained widespread attention due to its ability to extend the lifespan of yeast, worms, and flies, along with its ability to protect against age-related diseases such as cancer, Alzheimer's, and diabetes in mammals.
