You initially asked about internal bleeding. That really is quite different than a moderate anti-platelet activity. So what's the evidence?are you saying you yourself still do not know blood thinning property of Resveratrol?

should we be reminded when newton came up with The Universal Law of Gravitation, university counsellors were advising their students not to major in physics because all physical laws of the universe have been found..? one thing i can claim w/o hesitance is that future is further away than we think..

Dietary supplementation of resveratrol attenuates chronic colonic inflammation in mice.
Sánchez-Fidalgo S, Cárdeno A, Villegas I, Talero E, de la Lastra CA.
Department of Pharmacology, School of Pharmacy, University of Seville, Spain. fidalgo@us.es
Ulcerative colitis is a nonspecific inflammatory disorder characterized by oxidative and nitrosative stress, leucocyte infiltration and upregulation of inflammatory mediators. Resveratrol is a polyphenolic compound found in grapes and wine, with multiple pharmacological actions, mainly anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antitumour and immunomodulatory activities. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of dietary resveratrol on chronic dextran sulphate sodium (DSS)-induced colitis. Six-week-old mice were randomized into two dietary groups: one standard diet and the other enriched with resveratrol at 20mg/kg of diet. After 30days, mice were exposed to 3% DSS for 5days developing acute colitis that progressed to severe chronic inflammation after 21days of water. Our results demonstrated that resveratrol group significantly attenuated the clinical signs such as loss of body weight, diarrhea and rectal bleeding improving results from disease activity index and inflammatory score. Moreover, the totality of resveratrol-fed animals survived and finished the treatment while animals fed with standard diet showed a mortality of 40%. Three weeks after DSS removal, the polyphenol caused substantial reductions of the rise of pro-inflammatory cytokines, TNF-alpha and IL-1beta and an increase of the anti-inflammatory cytokine IL-10. Also resveratrol reduced prostaglandin E synthase-1 (PGES-1), cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) proteins expression, via downregulation of p38, a mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPK) signal pathway. We conclude that resveratrol diet represents a novel approach to the treatment of chronic intestinal inflammation. Copyright 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Resveratrol is undoubtedly a blood thinner.

Now I'm not a fool, I can see why ImmInst is trying to sugar-coat Resveratrol's side effects. However I have a different view on this: It is only if ImmInst takes a totally transparent position on ImmInst-promoting supplements, including Resveratrol, that ImmInst will find true benefit in the long run, both in profit and reputation.
Believe it or not, I like ImmInst forum a lot and it is my sincere two cents.

Perhaps you have a pre-existing condition that precludes all supplement use. If so, I understand your prudence and reluctance to try any regimens. I dont think anyone here is endorsing using exorbitant doses of Resveratrol. As for advertisement here, its pretty much restricted, however, if someone asks me directly what product I think is best, I usually tell them. This is how we share information, this is what these boards are for. I highly doubt that if you use Resveratrol at modest doses of the best available to you, that it will create any problems. Often people that dont use Resveratrol, post here and try to negate it. Thats okay, because it prompts pro-resveratrol discussion.

Hi all. I have been reading all these posts on Longe****x. I would like to think that it is the best choice to start a regimen of Resveratrol with. I like the way it is incapsuled so it doesn't convert from trans-resveratrol to cis-resveratrol. I am confused why their advantage+ formula is split up so that you need to take two capsules to achieve the same amount of resveratrol as you will get with one capsule of their regular formula. As for their ingredients, I like that it has vitamin D3 (very good for you I hear). I like that it has Quercetin (very good for you I hear). I like IP6 (I heard that is good for you). Now the advantage formula I like even more because I have heard good things about hyaluronan, lutein, and extracts of cocoa bean, green tea, and grape seed. And if I tried to get truly trans-resveratrol without it turning to cis-resveratrol, as well as adding all the rest of these good ingredients, how much more would I have to spend to accomplish this from all separate sources instead of taking the Long****x advantage+ formula? Does anyone have this answer? The reason why I am asking is because I DO NOT like and or I am AFRAID of ingesting some of the other ingredients found in Longe****x. The ingredients I am talking about are titanium dioxide and silicon dioxide. Both of these chemicals are said to be bad for humans. I have included links for articles on both: http://www.ktradione...an-consumption/
http://www.ivanfrase...ealth/sics.html
Because of these ingredients, I am asking if anyone knows a way that I can get what I consider to be the "good ingredients" in a resveratrol regimen without spending a fortune. Or is there another company out there that has the same ingredients as Longe****x without the dioxide brothers? Lastly, does anyone agree about the daily dosage of trans-resveratrol in Longe****x to be the most effective dose to take for daily use, or is there a more effective dose that someone feels is better? I am just trying to get started up again on a "smart" up to date 2010 resveratrol regimen that I want to follow religiously for a while.
Thanks in advance!

Everything that I bolded is an unsupported assertion. I applaud that you've finally broken down and posted a link a few posts back, but google searches are not exactly scientific research. You can thoroughly search the net all you want, but if you are just bringing up a bunch of erroneous blogs and forum posts, or advertising propaganda masquerading as good information, what good is it? We would like to see papers from the peer reviewed literature that support your rather outlandish claims. You seem to see words that turn up in google searches, like "blood thinner", yet you have no sense of the magnitude of these effects. You then seem to let your mind run wild, cooking up unlikely scenarios like "irreversible hemorrhagic stroke" with no basis in fact.Actually the first link is google search for "resveratrol bleeding risk", and maxwatt again, is obviously attempting to downplay the clear and present danger of mega-dosing Resveratrol. Internal capillary leakage/bleeding can be symptomless for months or even years until it hits you with irreversable hemorrhagic stroke.
A couple of more side effects:
Resveratrol inhibits Angiogenesis (growth of new blood vessels). now this may be a good news for tumor inhibition but not so good a news for wound healing and growing. Resveratrol will retard growth of children/adolescents. Large dosage of resveratrol frequently talked about here, should never be taken, especially in combination of of fishoil, Borage oil, Curcumin, Quercetin, MSM, garlic, ginger, magnesium, lavender/camomile tea and baby aspirin etc. which all thin blood. Resveratrol also is an efficient chelator, especially copper, lack of which hardens/weakens blood vessels and causes joint pain and bone fragility, which seem to have already affected a number of ImmInst Resveratrol users. Resveratrol also seems to cause hormonal disturbance, making women masculine and men feminine.
There are many more. If you care about your health, you should thoroughly search the net and get a good grip of Resveratrol side effects before you spend hundreds of $.

You are worrying needlessly about the stability of resveratrol. Despite commercial propaganda to the contrary, resveratrol is a reasonably stable molecule in the solid phase. Do you remember this post? If you read the abstract quoted there, it details stability tests that were run on samples of resveratrol, showing that conversion from trans to cis is a non-issue. In fact, the more likely conversion is from cis to trans. If you continue further in the same thread, there is more discussion of evidence for stability and likely sources of the rumors of instability.Hi all. I have been reading all these posts on Longe****x. I would like to think that it is the best choice to start a regimen of Resveratrol with.

People come here and slam Res. The funny thing is almost none of them use it or if they have, have used min. dosage of poor product. Either Resveratrol works and produces benefits or it doesnt. If a person slams it and hasnt even used it, I guess we can consider the source. Im glad to hear from people that have used it consistently, with result. I dont think my cappilaries are leaking yet, so thats a good sign, particularly when lifting weights 3 times a week, in my mid fifties and taking minimum medications. Good health is not an accident.
Posted 06 April 2010 - 01:34 PM
I would like to share with the forum some of my experiences and results of taking reseveratrol over a relatively extended period of time. I have been taking reseveratrol since I first read about the drug in a New Scientist article back in early 2006. I started off with 100mg of 50% purity per day, because at that point in time it was difficult to get a bigger dose at a sensible price. About three years ago I increased the dose to 500 mg of 50% purity per day and stayed at this level until about 18 months ago when I switched manufacturers and started taking 700mg of 50% purity. During this period I also tried doubling the dose to 1.4 g of 50% purity per day, this however started to produce joint pain in my elbow and knee joint, so what I then did was switch to taking a second tablet every other day, this cured the joint pain and I haven't had any problems since. These have been the only adverse side-effects that I can report. The positive effects have been marked, I am in my late fifties, weigh 85kg and I am 6' 1.5'' tall. Firstly stamina and well-being have improved, I have always been fit, not smoked or drunk excessively and have been going to the gym three or four times a week for the last 20 years, prior to that I was a regular squash player and on a subjective scale I would say that my fitness level in the gym has improved by a decade or more. Secondly, I have suffered from the herpes virus and in the past have had to take acyclovir to effectively treat the virus, since taking reseveratrol the reoccurrence of the virus has been minimal and I have noted that there are some references to the effectiveness of reseveratrol on herpes in the literature. The third effect is a reduction in the number of colds and flu symptoms I have had over the last few years. I realise that most of these effects are subjective and some people could argue that the placebo effect is coming into play but I do believe that the effects are stronger than this and I will certainly continue to take the dosage of reseveratrol that I am presently on. I hope that this has been of some use and that progress will be made either by the Institute of some of the scientific investigations that are continuing into the effect of this interesting drug.

Thanks for the good news! Anecdotal reports like this, in which readers can relate and paralell their own experiences to, and the multitude of "pro" studies, are consistent with my own experiences. I havent had any major colds or flu either since I started using it regularly. I stopped all supps and exercise for a period, and felt an all around difference, albeit a slight one, once I re-started Resveratrol use I did notice increase in stamina and exercise exertion, well-being etc. Placebo, yes perhaps, but I am taking it 3 to 4 times weekly instead of every day. After 2 days of abstinence, I feel that dissipate somewhat. So this may very well be a worthwhile "placebo" to use regularly provided it causes no problems. I think that micronized, high purity is the best way to go, and like all supps should be cycled with brief "off" periods.People come here and slam Res. The funny thing is almost none of them use it or if they have, have used min. dosage of poor product. Either Resveratrol works and produces benefits or it doesnt.

,Just upped the dose from 350 mg to 750 mg two days ago. First noticeable effects were dry mouth and mild tachycardia (my pulse went from mid 70's to mid 80's). Also, my sleep was more disturbed last two days (I take it at night). I can't pinpoint these to resveratrol 100% but timing of the syptoms coincide.
I think this goes to show that resveratrol dosage increase, even when modest, does create noticeable differences; which gives a hint on how powerful effects it can have on the body. Maybe my body is warning me to be careful.
With other supplements I use, such as silymarin, choline, burdock root, ellagic acid, etc., I've experienced no noticeable changes even when I tripled the amounts.
I think I'll step down to 500 mg and see what happens. I believe everyone has an "ideal" dosage, and I'm trying to find mine.

I am now taking 15 grams of Resveratrol in an emulsion of coconut oil, grapefruit juice, Bioperine, sodium ascorbate, aspirin, Vitamin E and 12.5 grams Curcumin which has been processed long and hard enough to form nano-drops of oil in the emusions, based on patents I've read. 20 minutes before taking the emulsion I take 10 mg. Bioperine and two adult aspirins with grapefruit juice. I take another aspirin and another Bioperine with the emulsion. I had some real problems with Quercetin and Resveratrol but since I dropped off the Quercetin, I'm having nothing but good effects from what should be highly available Resveratrol and Curcumin. I sleep like a teenager, I feel very good, my mood is excellent. My prostate cancer, which appears to have been slowly growing in me for 10-14 years and giving me very painful symptoms all during that time, is now asymptomatic. In a few days I up the amount of Resveratrol to 20 grams.
Oh yes. I'm also using Resveratrol buccally from arising to Noon. I'm waiting for my Resveratrol lozenges to arrive in a week. I know the power of buccal delivery of Resveratrol and having lozenges to suck on instead of just coating my cheeks and gums with Resveratrol is exciting.
With me, it appears the more you take, the less side effects. Or, I've habituated to the effects of the Resveratrol.

I have been taking about 1,500 mg RES day for about 3 years.
Excuse me while I get up off the pool of blood I left under my seat to go the the bathroom and use my hormone reduced penis and take a leak.
You don't think growing old causes joint pain, fragile bones, arthritis, heart disease, reduced hormones?
