In Research On Resveratrol Sirtris Pharmaceuticals Leads The Way
One of the newest compounds that is available on the market as a dietary supplement is resveratrol. This substance is found naturally in grapes, blueberries, raspberries and mulberries as well as red wine and peanuts. Its health benefits are many, and when it comes to research on resveratrol Sirtris Parmaceuticals is at the head of the game.
Resveratrol has very promising prospects. Because of the antioxidant properties it contains and its benefits to the health and longevity of mice and other animals in experiments, people are already excited about making the supplement a part of their improved living regimen. And, although the full length and breadth of research necessary to make conclusive claims has not been completed, Sirtris is well on its way to providing answers.
Studies are being done to test the theory and claims that resveratrol is good as a cancer preventative, and most especially to find out how far and how deep its effects on blood sugar go, including what type of dosage is required and what effect it has on many different people with different types of diabetes.
Any good, in-depth study requires time to complete. There is no way to determine exactly what results you will get from a supplement unless you research it in a controlled and professional way. Current research on diabetics proves very promising, but is still in only phaseII, meaning that the studies are incomplete as yet.
But with testing and researching resveratrol Sirtris Pharmaceuticals Keeps pushing forward. Ever more information and details will continue to be revealed, including answers to some questions and concerns such as: Can taking resveratrol increase your risk of developing breast cancer?
Although there is no evidence that it does, because resveratrol can act as an estrogen, it is supposed that it would possibly increase the risk of developing breast cancer, even while it is being proven to be a cancer preventative (because of the specific type of cancer which is estrogen related).
For now, recommendations from people who have used the supplement, as well as from some doctors, and even television show hosts is enough to get people interested in trying resveratrol. This, of course will lead to a greater understanding of how people respond to the supplement and the implications, both good and bad, that it may carry.
Adding the increasing popularity of the supplement, and the information that can come from the public about their experiences to the detailed research being done by Sirtris and you can be sure that more answers are soon to come. For now, the supplement is proving at least to be safe for those over eighteen years of age who are not pregnant.
