Resveratrol Explained by Dr Oz on Oprah

Just a reminder, if you decide to get a resveratrol trial, start taking it slowly. What scares me is that people blindly follow the instructions of Dr. Sinclair. On 60 minutes he recommended to take 320mg each day. Therefore many believe that this is the correct resveratrol dosage, but consider that your body has to get used to it.

Dr. Sinclair is a leading resveratrol expert, but he was talking about the dosage that is needed to get the best results. You can’t expect to start taking 320mg each day immediately without any side effects. Some consumer report nose-bleeding, because they took a very high dose straight from the beginning. So, please make sure to start taking it slowly.

Resveratrol Dosage – How much resveratrol do experts take daily?  (Dr Oz, Dr Sinclair, Raymond Kurzweil)

Dr Oz recommends a resveratrol dosage of 500mg/day

Raymond Kurzweil takes only 100mg/day

Dr Sinclair takes 300mg/day

Dr Oz Extreme Life Extension

I was pretty impressed after reading this quote from Dr.Oz about calorie restriction:

“The body gets really efficient,” he says. “You turn on this new chemical pathway we never knew existed called the sirtuin pathway. What it tells you is don’t make more babies because you don’t have the excess abundant energy to do that—just live longer.”

So, basically you eat a lot less to maximize your body’s efficiency. It sounds logical that the body does not have to put in 100% because we are always well-fed and can “recharge” our energy by eating whenever we want to. That would also explain why Chinese people, who are rarely as well-fed as the average person of western socities, live longer.

If you combine calorie restriction and resveratrol, you can dramatically increase your longevity. Obviously, the tough part for most people is to change their eating habits. Taking a pill is easy, we are used  to it – but we are not used to feeling hungry. Some people even get angry when they are hungry. But it’s the key! Find out why staying hungry is the key.

Belly fat refers to visceral fat. It is deep inside the body system and is the most dangerous fat you can pile up. The health risks are severe, that’s why you have to get rid of it!

What causes belly fat?

Stress is an important factor, because our body requires more cortisol, which can lead to decreased metabolism and weight gain.

Sit-ups won’t help!

Although it will help to do your daily sit-ups, you can’t rely on that alone. Healthy eating and exercises should be combined to get the best results.

Aerobic exercise and weight training is a good way to keep your body in good shape. Read this Anti-Aging checklist for a list of exercises and watch Dr Oz’s 7-minute workout video.

Recommended foods for your daily diet:

• Avocado (high protein)
• Salmon (omega3)
• Artichoke (high fiber)
• Peppers (decrease appetite)

Another very interesting question answered by Dr. Oz: What is a healthy waist size and what is the difference between pant size and waist size?

If you divide your height by 2, that number should be more than your current waist size. If it is not, then you have too much belly fat!

Many consumer who take resveratrol report that they lost weight. Resveratrol increases your metabolism, therefore you loose weight. If your waist size is too big, then consider taking resveratrol.

This was one of my favorite shows, when Dr Oz and Oprah discussed the best vitamins.

Vitamin D - lack of sunlight can be a cause of vitamin D deficiency

Vitamin D:

If you spend a lot of time outdoors, you should have enough of it, because you are getting it naturally through direct sun exposure.

However, on rainy days or if you mainly work inside a building, you should consider to take vitamin D. You will not only feel better, you will also strengthen your health. It can prevent cancer and heart problems.

DHA omega-3

You can get this vitamin through fish oil or by taking DHA omega-3 supplements. 600 milligrams a day is a recommendation from Dr. Oz. This is the most efficient vitamin to reduce heart diseases, cancer and to some extents wrinkles.

Multivitamin for women: Pre/Post-menopausal

Women (before the menopause) are supposed to consume multivitamin + iron  (vitamin A: 5.000 units) .

Women (after the menopause) are supposed to consume multivitamin (vitamin A: 2500 units).

Studies convinced Dr.Oz

So, you might wonder what studies convinced Dr. Oz to recommend Resveratrol. Ultra

The answer is quite simple. Harvard scientists are partly responsible for it.Some Harvard scientists wanted to know if we really can live a longer life with the help of resveratrol. So they went out and did it. How? They put a group of mice and fed them a terrible junk food diet (poor mice!) – 60% fat only!

In the end those mice became overweight and developed many health problems.

And here’s the exciting part. As you probably assumed, there was another group of mice who were put on the same diet but that took resveratrol.

Results of the experiment? The mice became overweight too! However, they were healthier, prettier, lived 15-30% longer and had a lot more energy. They were able  to outrun the other mice easily. The group of mice that did not take resveratrol was able to run for 1 mile. The group that was taking resveratrol was able to double it – 2miles!

So why is that? And why was Dr. Oz and many other scientist so amazed at those results? Because resveratrol increases your blood flow, hence your muscles have a lot more energy.

What do consumer reports say? Surprisingly, the resveratrol testimonials say exactly the same! On a forum, 29 people are reporting exactly the same -they have more energy, improved mood and a lower appetite (which will lead to weight loss).

That’s why Dr Oz is an advocate of resveratrol! But why resveratrol ultra?

Sidenote: You can order it here and pay less than what you would normally pay for resveratrol. ultra

Conclusion? Those studies convinced Dr. Oz and consumer report similar effects – so resveratrol does really work!
