Creator description · original textText language: American English
Drinking red wine for Resveratrol is one of the biggest scientific misunderstandings in nutrition. To get a clinical 500mg dose, you'd need to drink 300+ glasses of wine a day! In this video, we break down why standard Resveratrol has less than 1% oral bioavailability, how Pterostilbene's methylated structure delivers 80% bioavailability and an 80x higher cellular impact, the SIRT1 "engine and fuel" synergy with NMN, and the simple fat-co-ingestion trick that boosts absorption by 5x.
