Saw another article on Resveratrol today:
This is an article from Newsmax Health:
Red Wine Helps You Think
Resveratrol, the chemical in red wine that has been shown to
have numerous health benefits, is giving you another reason to kick
back and have a glass of red wine. It increases blood flow to the brain
and helps you think.
Researchers at Northumbria University in Newcastle, UK, gave
24 people a series of arithmetic tests while blood flow to their brains
was monitored. Before testing, they were given 500 mg or 1,000 mg of
resveratrol or a placebo. Those who had been given resveratrol showed
significant changes in brain flow and improved performance on the
tests. Additional tests will seek to discover the optimal dose needed
for reveratrol’s brain-boosting effects.
An earlier study at the Mount Sinai School of Medicine found
that moderate amounts of wine — 5 to 10 ounces daily — might slow the
accumulation of amyloid plaques that are a hallmark of Alzheimer’s
disease. Other tests have shown that resveratrol lowers the risk of
cardiovascular disease by increasing the levels of “good” cholesterol,
and also fights cancer, obesity, and diabetes.
Resveratrol is found not only in red grape skins but also in
cranberries, blueberries, raspberries, and peanuts. “It is interesting
to see that a component you come across in many everyday foods can have
a positive effect on brain function,” said researcher Emma Wightman.

I try to drink a little red wine often. Some other
literature I've read suggest you would have to drink many bottles of wine per day
to derive some of the benefits of Resveratrol. That's why I have been
taking Resvinatrol. It is made from muscadine grape skins and seeds, pomegranate and other concentrated sources of Resveratrol.
The recommended dosage by the makers is 2 ounces which
supplies 200mg of Reseveratrol. The studies I've read
conclude that 400mg per day is needed to achieve the beneficial results
discovered in the test. This means one would need to take 4 ounces of
Resvinatrol to achieve that amount. I'm looking for a more concentrated
source but this is as close as i've come. If you find a more
concentrated product please let me know.
BTW: I don't believe drinking alcohol is a sin. Drunkeness is the sin. Drink with control.
Lunch: 8-10 oz of fajita meat, lots of pico de gallo, jalapeno and salsa. Diet Dr. Pepper to drink.
Snack: 10 walnuts. Too many
Dinner: Taco salad and a taco. Diet coke.
Snack: Went on a binge! 3 Brownies, 4 lemon cup cakes glass of skim milk,to cancel out the calories. You can fool your mind but not your body.
