There are several resveratrol sources in nature. You might call them “good, better and best”. In this article, you can learn about each of the sources and what amount you will find in each one. The health benefits of this antioxidant are believed to be numerous. All that we need is a good source.

Red grapes in general provide between .24 and 1.25mg per cup. However the variation of the amount of resveratrol present in grapes depends on the climate in which red grapes are grown.

Unlike what is found with berries, boiled peanuts have a higher concentration than raw ones. Peanut butter provides a very tiny amount. One would need to eat a whole cup to get a maximum of .13mg.

The concentration of the compound in grape and cranberry juice is similar. Scientists must use a different measuring system to test these beverages. Amounts are not recorded in mg/l, but in nmol/g. In other words, the concentration is much lower. These juices are considered a negligible source at best, although other health benefits are associated with their consumption.

It has been revealed that red wine is the bets source of resveratrol. People often consume red wine in their diet but the concentration that people require to reverse the aging process is very high. Resveratrol was firstly extracted from Japanese knotweed roots; it produced 187 mg/kg.

The amount that is found in red wines varies. All of them contain some. Even white wines contain a small amount, but more than is found in juices.

Resveratrol is a highly concentrated content and has many benefits. The natural resveratrol which is found in the grapes is the best. Resveratrol is a potent anti oxidant thus it can easily treat cancerous cells.

So, obviously, if we want the perceived health benefits, we need different resveratrol sources. That brings me to supplements.

There are some supplements on the market with a very high content, as much as 200mg per serving. A moderate amount, 20-50mg per day is a better choice, as long as the manufacturer includes an enteric coating.
