Scientists have found a substance called resveratrol in red wine that slows down the aging process in mice. Will it someday lengthen the lives of humans, too? Morley Safer reports.

Why don't you guys just buy it at wallgreens. Their band cost 10 per bottle. They have a sale from time to time where you get two for one so it is 5 dollars a bottle.
Question: I sometimes open cap and dump it in my mouth (I read that this helps get it into your blood.) Anyone else do this? is it better to use micornized for this?

I also feel like I have been scammed. You order the product for a 10 day trial, but you don't receive it until day 12. You are still charged the full amount. They say I should have called and asked for an extension, but trying to get a hold of them is next to impossible if you work and cannot call during business hours, they don't answer after 5:00 and they don't answer before 8:00. So if you decide to try it you can kiss your $84.01 good bye. Even if you return it the same day because your 10 days are up before you receive the UltraResV.

I feel like I have been scammed. Not only did my 99 cent bottle of Resveratrol cost me $87.13, the $3.95 bottle of Dermapril Creme I ordered at the same time cost me $79.95. If you don't cancel within 14 days, you are charged the full amount. There is essentially, no trial period. I called my bank card co. when the charges weren't reversed after I canceled and was told they had 30 days to do so. They weren't, so I called Reseveratrol company again. I spent lots of time on the phone on two different calls. The second time I called, the person spoke such poor English I had a very hard time understanding her. Do the products work? Who knows. There literature says thay it 1 to 6 months to know. But even if they did, I am so angry I would never order them again. CBS needs to review its recommendation for this product made by this company.

In my opinion the problem with these drugs is that they are all synthetic. I have been using Shaklee's Vivix, (which his an all-natural tonic/liquid) for 1 year and notice a great improvement in my energy and hip pain. You can check out a video on the product at www.shaklee.net/vita
I agree with Jeff that it is worth the money and you can save 10% if you put it on autoship (which can be cancelled at any time). Shaklee also offers a 100% money back guarantee...it's a one month supply and once you've used it, if you don't feel a difference, you can get your money back. That's a pretty good deal!

IM TIRED OF RESVERATROL SCAMS!!! Honestly, they need to shut these companies down already. Avoid the "Free Trial Offer" products, they will get you in a nonstop loop of credit card charges (usually around $87.19)

Immortal Institute is a great site to search for resveratrol supplements, as is reviewresveratrol.com... or you can just go with a reputable source:
1. Longevinex (a bit pricey)
2. RevGenetics 300 - 1000mg trans resveratrol caps
3. HealthyScience RezBerry Plus (not to be confused with the scam product RezBerry Ultra)
4. Enzymatic Therapy Resveratrol Forte

HELLO,

I just bought a bottle of Resveratrol supplements from a UK distributor and was charged 118 USD for it! In addition, I found out that it contains gelatin which is made out of animal products. Impossible for me to take them because I follow a kosher diet. What can I do? Would anyone be interested in getting it a reduced price? The bottle has not been opened. The plastic wrapping is still there.

I buy this from a well known drug store chain and it's works! I suffer from mild depression and have stopped taking it (just forgot) and my depression returned. I started taking it again, and back to feeling good again. It took a couple of times before I realized that I felt better when taking it. I just ordered 4 bottles of this at $7.99 a piece. You don't have to pay outrageous prices for it. BUT what a difference it makes!

Dr. Sinclair was associated with Shaklee before forming his own company. As a result of their collaboration, Shaklee offers VIVIX, a liquid supplement with resveratrol and other important antioxidants (polyphenols). You can order this product from any Shaklee independent distributor. It is a bit pricey, but worth it, I think.

Actually, besides Resveratrol, grape seed extract is great as well. However, for grape seed extract, it's important to get it from Chardonnay. See, the main difference between white wine and red wine processing is that the seeds are taken out before fermentation in white wine making while the seeds are fermented with the juice to make red wine. So the antioxidants are still available in the grape seeds for extraction in the case of Chardonnay, whereas they are lost to the wine in the case of red. Thus, red wine is great for the heart to drink but white is much better for skin care. See Olavie.com and LeVinSkinCare.com for how Chardonnay grape seed extract and resveratrol are used in skin care for anti-aging benefits.

They charged me $86.17 after 10 days, and also they tacked on some skin cream crap for another $49.95 that I never even heard of!!! They charged the $86.17 dollars to my father-in-law after 5 days. I don't have a lot of money anyways, but they cleaned me out good and I got hit with overdraft fee's on top of that. What the heck? I called them to demand a refund, and they would not give me a straight answer, it said I was calling Florida but they talked in a really weird accent and had a highly unusual name. They would not provide a straight answer about the charges, or getting a credit. I asked for a supervisor and she told me that he was on the phone with another customer and that I could be on hold for hours. Then she asked me if I would be willing to take a discount? First time shame on them, second shame on me. They wouldn't confirm if they would give me a credit just kept delaying so I had call my bank and report it as a fraud, which they are! I never ordered expensive freaking skin creme, where heck did that come from~~

Anthony,

I signed up with UltraResv and I love the results I have gotten from the product. You can order just one bottle. You can cancel during the free trial and pay nothing extra. I kept it because I feel so much better in a few days and love being shipped monthly.

I also thinks it's really shady how you come on here to criticize a site you never heard of and promote your site. Some of us are just regular people looking for help.

The problem with UltraResv is that you can only sign up for a recurring shipment. After 14 days, you are charged $80 for the free trial. You cannot just order one bottle, to see if it works.

The other things is that it is not pure, and ResV has only been around for a few months. It doesn't appear to provide tests that show it's purity and safety. Please goto Complaints.com and search for ResV, you may find people with more issues.

If you really want to consider resveratrol, first look at the price watch to help compare prices:
www.ResveratrolPriceWatch.com it is a public price watch on a non-profit group's forum where anyone can add pricing, to help find the decent prices.
