RESVERATROL 500 mg EXTRACT FROM GRAPE SKINS 120 CAPSULES

Resveratrol 500 mg - extract from grape skins, 120 capsules

Resveratrol 500 mg is a preparation based on an extract from the skins of the Vitis vinifera grape. The manufacturer provides two values in one row of the table, making comparisons much easier: 500 mg of extract in a capsule and - with a standardization level of 10% - 50 mg of pure resveratrol. Therefore, there is no need to calculate or assume anything. The formula is supplemented with two additives: 240 mg of Orafti®GR inulin derived from chicory root and 10 mg of L-leucine.

The packaging contains 120 capsules with a net weight of 102 g, and the coating is a plant capsule. It is worth noting right away: there are no approved health claims for resveratrol, so this page describes the composition, quantities, and form, not the effects.

Ingredients

The manufacturer lists three items in the composition table and breaks down the extract into a standardized fraction:

• Extract from grape skins (Vitis vinifera) - 500 mg in a capsule
• Of which resveratrol with a standardization of 10% - 50 mg in a capsule
• Orafti®GR inulin from chicory root - 240 mg in a capsule
• L-leucine - 10 mg in a capsule
• Plant capsule Vcaps® (hydroxypropyl methylcellulose) - coating ingredient
• Manufacturer’s declaration: NON GMO

Standardization is what to look at when making comparisons, as the mere number of milligrams of extract says little: an extract from grapes with a one percent content and one with a ten percent content are two different products at the same weight. The manufacturer declares 10% and provides the resulting content directly, so both numbers can be taken from the label.

Inulin from chicory root is a prebiotic ingredient in terms of raw material classification - we do not attribute any effects to it here, as in this amount it does not meet the conditions of any approved health claim, and the conditions for such claims are strict. One thing in the composition does not match, and we state this directly: L-leucine appears in the table in the amount of 10 mg, but it is not repeated in the listed composition next to it.

Specification

How to use

The manufacturer’s scheme is one sentence long and supplemented with a standard disclaimer:

• One capsule daily
• Swallow whole, with water
• Most conveniently with a meal, at a regular time
• Do not exceed the recommended daily serving

The manufacturer does not specify the time of day nor the maximum duration of use. Since resveratrol is a fat-soluble compound, it is practically convenient to take the capsule with a meal containing fat - this is our tip, not a recommendation from the label, and we mark it here. Capsules should not be opened or dissolved in water.

For whom

This preparation is for someone looking specifically for an extract from grape skins and wants the standardization provided, not just the raw material weight. The capsule format solves the measuring issue: there is no powder or kitchen scale, just one capsule daily.

We do not attribute any effects to resveratrol - there are no approved health claims for this ingredient, so it is fair to write only about the composition, quantity, and form. Who this preparation will not serve: those looking for pure trans-resveratrol without a plant matrix, those avoiding inulin due to food tolerance, and anyone expecting declarations that the manufacturer simply does not make. If you are taking medications regularly, consult the use of the preparation with a doctor or pharmacist before purchase.

Frequently asked questions

How much resveratrol is in one capsule?

The manufacturer provides 500 mg of extract from grape skins and a standardization level of 10%, which in the same cell of the table is recorded as 50 mg of resveratrol. Therefore, both numbers are printed, and we do not need to calculate anything.

Is the composition on the label complete?

The composition table lists three items: extract, inulin, and L-leucine in the amount of 10 mg. However, the listed composition next to it only repeats the extract, inulin, and coating - L-leucine is not included. This is an inconsistency on the part of the manufacturer, and we prefer to show it rather than choose one of the two versions and silence the other.

Variants and category

In the same category, you will find other single-ingredient preparations with the provided standardization - for example, an extract of mumio in capsules, where the manufacturer also breaks down the content of the extract into a standardized fraction. If you are looking for a plant raw material instead of an extract, check out vitamin C from rose hips. We have gathered other items from this shelf in the Supplements category.

Safety and storage
