Resveratrol by Biotivia
Are any of you taking Resveratrol in your vitamin regimen? I don't often watch Oprah, but caught the last 15 minutes this week when Dr. Oz was on and he had green capsules of Resveratrol and said this is an important part of good health. I quickly read the credits (do this in the theatre, too!) and noticed the name Biotivia, so I called the company and he was sending me some info. on it and suggested I take Resveratrol TransMax (500 mg.), which is really expensive.
Yes, red wine is so much more fun to consume. But, as Lani shows, alcohol is alcohol.
Your thoughts on Resveratrol?
Cheers,
Vicki
