RESVERATROL: THE ANTIOXIDANT AND ANTI-AGING MOLECULE

Nature offers many precious substances useful for the organic well-being and anti-aging. Resveratrol, for example, is a polyphenolic compound that can be found in many plants and that carries important antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. Because of this, it’s frequently used by anti-aging medicine to slow down the manifestations of aging.

The functions of resveratrol

Many studies have recently underlined the importance of resveratrol as an anti-aging component, thanks to its anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, anticancer, anti-diabetic, cardio and neuroprotective properties. Resveratrol has shown high effectiveness in the prevention of age-related pathologies as it works in opposition to oxidative stress, calming inflammation caused by the activity of free radicals. Furthermore, resveratrol improves the activity of mitochondria - fundamental for the energetic metabolism -, is related to the regulation of cell turnover and has demonstrated anti adipogenic effects: all fundamental functions in a healthy aging perspective.

Resveratrol against skin aging

In addition to the properties shown against cellular aging, resveratrol has the ability to combat free radicals with positive repercussions on skin well-being because it protects the skin from damage caused by free radicals, UV rays and pollutants. In order for polyphenol to contribute to skin health, it’s recommended to use resveratrol topically rather than systemically, with serums or creams enriched with this nutrient.

How to supplement resveratrol

Resveratrol is a natural element present in many plant-based foods which, therefore, can be integrated primarily through a specific diet rich in grapes, peanuts, blueberries, tomatoes, spinach, purple cabbage and cocoa. A balanced diet is the first step for a healthy aging as it guarantees a complete supply of the main antioxidant agents and the most important nutrients. Anyway, alongside a good diet, anti-aging medicine uses nutraceuticals to knowingly integrate fundamental substances, so resveratrol can also be taken as an oral supplement to guarantee its correct daily intake. Upon medical advice, it’s possible to identify a nutritional and nutraceutical plan to suit every individual's needs.

Neural therapy for headaches and migraines: an innovative approach

Neural therapy is a medical treatment that, through the injection of highly diluted anesthetic substances such as procaine or lidocaine, modulates the activity of the autonomic nervous system to alleviate pain conditions. The goal is to restore the functional balance of the body, offering pain relief even in case of chronic and disabling conditions. Among the disorders that can be treated with neural therapy are chronic and recurrent forms of headaches and migraines.
