Oh, but what about storing open bottles of red wine under Ar or N2 and consuming them within 2-3
days? Lol. It's good to see some real numbers.
Quoted message said:"Creasy's tests show that resveratrol is preserved even in open wine, with only a 3 percent
reduction after 17 days sitting open on a counter at about 70 degrees or refrigerated at about 35
degrees. He believes that resveratrol lasts longer in wine than in pill form because of the anti-
oxidant properties in wine. However, wine will lose its resveratrol if it is exposed to light, so
keep an opened bottle away from a window."
I'd still like to know how certain supplement manufacturers are preparing their Licaps and what
analytical proof support their claims regarding oxidation, or lack thereof, in their products.
From a recent thread:

This article is apparently from the NY times. Sure, *that* structure is correct.

Yes! Longevinex has the wrong molecule; moreover, they have "RESVERATROL: The Molecule"
stamped on it.
Quoted message said:Well, if you only knew what I knew. I am prevented from commenting about the testing but let me put
it this way. I am a member of the Life Extension Foundation and when I found out the things that I
cannot comment on and which are not on a web page or in a research paper, I immediately returned
the Resveratrol I had received as a gift from LEF and got Longevinex instead. Enuf said.
It seems as though I've entered half way through a discussion. Sorry, I'm new to the group.
As for the testing, etc., why not have the company release some GC/MS or HPLC or some other
analytical data? All it can do is support this apparently wonderful product. Your anecdote
regarding chronic obstructive pulmonary disease is nice as far as these reports go. Furthermore,
the reference is good but tells me nothing about the quality of Longevinex Resveratrol over the
competitors. My university doesn't carry the current 12 months of Thorax so if you have a copy of
the .pdf, please post it.
I'm not doubting that it works, I'm doubting that the product you're endorsing is better than the
competitors.
