How Much Resveratrol Should I Take?
As in all supplements, you should read the directions on the packaging – or consult a physician. Otherwise, resveratrol is very safe. In fact there have been no reported problems with people taking resveratrol, eating peanuts, blueberries, cranberries, japanese knotweed or drinking grape juice or wine. Well, there have been problems with people drinking wine and eating peanuts, but those are unrelated to the resveratrol content. 🙂 Most supplements have around 250 mg of resveratrol. You can find 500 mg ones if you look hard. If you are taking a resveratrol powder supplement, make sure that it’s sold in individual servings.(OPC Factor is the only one I know that does this – but I’m sure there are others). Resveratrol is an antioxidant and will oxidize once in the presence of oxygen. If you get a tub of resveratrol powder, it will be much less viable after each time you open the jug. That means a 250 mg scoop will contain much less than that once you get down to the last few scoops.
