subject: Resveratrol Supplements Sales Increase, But Consumers Need To Exercise Caution [print this page] Resveratrol was one of the most popular supplements of 2009. During that year sales continued to increase. This year, resveratrol supplements are expected to remain popular and even greater sales are expected. Resveratrol is a type of polyphenol found in red wine and grapes. It has been thought by many scientist to help fight against many age related diseases, such as Alzheimer's disease, diabetes, and heart disease. Given its reputation, the consuming public continues to demand more resveratrol supplements. Unfortunately, the popularity of resveratrol supplements attracts scammers who are looking to make a quick buck by selling substandard resveratrol supplements or by employing questionable marketing tactics. Some of the resveratrol supplements on the market are not pure resveratrol. Instead, they use a variety of fillers, which can degrade the effectiveness of resveratrol supplements. One of the more common fillers is emodin. Emodin can cause stomach aches and diarrhea. The best resveratrol supplements are those that are nearly 99% pure resveratrol. Also, the type resveratrol matters. There are two types of reseveratrol. There is trans-resveratrol and cis-resveratrol.Studies show that trans-reseveratrol is completely absorbed by the body, whereas cis-resveratrol is not. Accordingly, consumers want to buy supplements containing trans-resveratrol. A common technique used by scammers is the "free trial offer". Most "free trial offers", however, are a little more than a ploy to run up bills on consumer's credit cards. "Free trial" offer scams have been a common complaint in 2009. In short, consumer's looking to buy legitimate resveratrol supplements should look for supplements made with pure trans-resveratrol. Also, consumers should avoid websites that offer "free trials".
