Resveratrol Supplements and Research
Resveratrol is found in the skin of red grapes, berries, and peanuts, and it is also a constituent of red wine. A number of health benefits of Resveratrol have been reported such as anti-cancer, antiviral, neuroprotective, antiaging, anti-inflammatory, and life prolonging effects. It has been speculated that Resveratrol at low does may have cardioprotective activity by modulating vascular cell function, inhibits LDL oxidation, suppresses platelet aggregation, and reduces myocardial damage during ischemia-reperfusion. Besides, various studies had demonstrated that Resveratrol may block the multiple process of carcinogenesis at various stages: tumor initiation, promotion, and progression, which account for resveratrol’s chemopreventive mechanism.

The following is excerpted from a health talk radio show interview with Dr Vijaya Nair:
The latest HealthFocus International Consumer Trend Report confirms that heart disease continues to be the No. 1 health issue for US consumers. Hypertension/high blood pressure ranks No. 8 and is a growing consumer concern.

Several JIVA products are specifically directed to consumers who are concerned about their heart health, both for prevention and recovery purposed.
What are the most recent advancements made in this category?
Using traditional foods or ingredients derived from food or foodstuffs (e.g. wine). Functional food and drinks are those edible food products that provide benefits beyond basic nutrition by way of added components designed to prevent disease and promote health. Recent research shows that consuming fermented soy is beneficial as a nutritional product with no ill side effects, and proves beneficial for those who are looking to either prevent disease or are either facing or undergoing long term medical treatment.
What is the state of the market for these types of products?
Research conducted by the National Marketing Institute (NMI) reveals that a majority of the American population has used functional foods at least once, and that the percentage is growing over time. As healthcare costs soar, Americans are increasingly being involved in preventive treatments and functional foods have become an integral part of such self-care plans. The U.S.’s growing ethnic populace is also shaping sales of functional foods and beverages. Retail sales within the U.S. consumer packaged goods health and wellness industry reached $91 billion in 2006 - a jump of 15 percent over 2005. The “baby boomer” generation not only has significant disposable income , but is more concerned than previous generations in maintaining their youth. This translates into a $91 billion US packaged goods and wellness foods industry.
What are the facts surrounding women and heart health that point to an important role for taking natural heart healthy supplements as one of the measures to support a health care measure?
We've all heard about estrogen replacement therapy (ERT). Millions of women, worldwide, either currently use estrogen or have used ERT in the past. The American Heart Association does not recommend estrogen for women with cardiovascular disease.
1 of 3 women die of heart disease in the States. Sadly, only about 33 percent of women know that heart disease is the #1 killer of women and men in the United States. Heart disease is not just a men's disease and it often leads to death, significant disability and change in quality of life. Learn the cold hard facts about heart disease and women.
While breast cancer is often our number one fear, the truth is that heart disease and strokes are the number one killer of both women and men. In fact, one in four women dies of heart disease. But heart disease can also lead to disability and a significantly decreased quality of life.
Although significant progress has been made increasing awareness among women—from 34 percent in 2000 to 57 percent in 2006—most women fail to make the connection between risk factors and their personal risk of developing heart disease.
Most women don't take their risk of heart disease seriously—or personally. Women often fail to make the connection between risk factors, such as high blood pressure and high cholesterol, and their own chance of developing heart disease.
