Is Red Wine Good for You?

A new study revealed that resveratrol, a compound found in red wine, has a number of beneficial health effects, such as antiviral, neuroprotective, anti-inflammatory effects, and especially anti-aging. Resveratrol is also found in the skin of grapes and the crust of peanuts and walnuts.

The study was lead by Rafael de Cabo, unit chief of the laboratory of experimental gerontology at the National Institute on Aging in Baltimore, who also worked with David A. Sinclair, of Harvard Medical School. They published their results in the July 3 online issue of Cell Metabolism, according to the Washington Post.

In this study, they fed middle aged mice low-calorie diets and high-calorie diets along with low or high resveratrol doses. The mice fed high-calorie diets and resveratrol lived longer than the mice that were just fed high-calories and no resveratrol. The higher resveratrol and higher-calorie diets had similar effects to low-calorie diets and low-resveratrol diets in terms of health benefits.

Rafael de Cabo said, “It’s very hard to extrapolate from this finding to comment on the benefits of red wine directly, because red wine has many other compounds besides resveratrol, including ethanol, which have very active biological effects, but red wine is a good source of resveratrol.”

Advanced Antioxidant Formula

Results from this study suggest that resveratrol has numerous health benefits including improved cardiovascular, bone and joint health in mice. Further, researchers believe that if these effects translate into humans, it will have a very good impact on the standard of human health.

There are two natural resveratrol supplements that I use.

I supplement my anti-aging regimen with Waiora’s Advanced Antioxidant Formula, and Waiora’s Essential Daily Nutrients (EDN) superfood juice blend.

The superfood juice, EDN, contains the amount of resveratrol equal to drinking 10 glasses of red wine!

Waiora’s Advanced Antioxidant Formula contains a high amount of natural resveratrol.

Ingredients of Advanced Antioxidant Formula:

Resveratrol (rez-vera-trol) is a naturally occurring phtyoalexin—a chemical substance produced by plants as a defense against infection by pathogenic microorganisms.

Epidemiological, in vitro and animal studies suggest that high resveratrol intake is associated with a reduced incidence of cardiovascular disease and a reduced risk for cancer. Resveratrol is found in grape vines (Vitis vinifera L.) occurring in vines, roots, seeds and stalks, but its highest concentration is in grape skins. It has several activities that may account for its possible cardioprotective action including its inhibition of the oxidation of low-density lipoprotein (LDL), inhibition of smooth muscle cell proliferation and inhibition of platelet aggregation. It has also been found to inhibit cellular events associated with tumor initiation, promotion and progression.

Resveratrol is thought to account, in large part, for the so-called French Paradox, the finding that the rate of coronary heart mortality in France is lower than observed in other industrialized countries with a similar risk profile and has been attributed to frequent consumption of red wine. The resveratrol in Waiora’s Advanced Antioxidant Formula is approximately equivalent to the resveratrol found in eight to 10 glasses of red wine.

Quercetin is a classification of water-soluble plant pigments, known as flavonoids. One especially rich source of quercetin is green tea.

Quercetin acts as an antihistamine and helps reduce inflammation associated with various forms of arthritis. It also works as an antioxidant by scavenging free radicals, which can damage cell membranes, interact with genetic material and contribute to the aging process. It may have antiviral, immune and gastroprotective activities, as well as assist in preventing secondary complications of diabetes.

Skincare doesn’t require much, but it does involve commitment and the right choices. Keeping your skin healthy is achievable and maintainable. By cleansing, exfoliating, nourishing and treating your skin daily with a product line like Skincents, you’ll be sure to have others inquiring about your secret.

Body Care Tips

Consider the limited amount of time you have each day. Between your career and your home life, the time left for yourself, is fleeting. If you’re like most, your skincare routine is rushed and little time is available to consider what products you should use and how or when to use them. All the more reason why you’ll love our Skincents skincare line as it’s simple to use and provides immediate results.

Let’s take a moment to consider how you cleanse. Water plays a major role in your skin’s moisture. Bathing in hot water dries and damages skin over time and cold water won’t dissolve and remove embedded dirt and grime as well as tepid water. If you use sponges, loofahs, or washcloths, make sure they are clean and soft. Another important thing is to be sure to rinse, rinse, and rinse! You want to avoid having any product left behind that would interfere with your skin’s ability to absorb your moisturizer. And lastly, when drying your body, do not scrub yourself dry. A simple pat down will do just fine.

Balancing Facts

We know each time you shower, shave or sun-bath you strip your skin of its natural moisture, causing irritation and dryness. By cleansing with a product such as Waiora’s Balancing Body Cleanser, rich in essential oils, you’ll find your skin feeling clean and smooth without being stripped of moisture. Notice that the product is called Balancing Body Cleanser; it is named as such, because ‘balancing’ is the key cleansing benefit it provides.

The scent alone will have you lathering up. And once your skin gets a taste of the texture and the true softness it delivers, the fact that it ‘balances’ your pH level and helps your skin retain moisture will be an after thought. Following up with our Hydrating Body Butter or Moisturizing Body Lotion will provide optimum results. Remember that your body is a larger surface area than your face and while not always noticeable, you can see and feel the effects of neglect.

Bringing It All Together-Sharing Our Secret

When it comes to Waiora Distributors, like yourself, we make it a priority to provide you with products that will speak for themselves. While focusing on the Skincents line, we sought after expert advice from dermatologists and aestheticians. The individual skincare professionals were asked to review our products for their efficacy and quality.

Our dermatologists were asked to review the ingredient list, ensuring that none of the ingredients found in the Skincents line would cause hesitance in recommending it to their patients. The same request was made of our aestheticians, as we asked them to evaluate the efficacy of our products, including the scents, the textures, and the results each product produced.

Each professional found our products to be soothing and delightful to the senses. They found that our Skincents skincare line would be a desired product among their cliental opposed to other skincare lines. Due to such positive results, we could hardly contain sharing this information with you. To find out what our professionals are talking about log onto the Waiora Skincents website and purchase a Skincents package of your choice and begin to see and feel the amazing results of Skincents.

Hello Waiora distributors,

The first testimonial for Waiora’s FAST2SLEEP:

I have a new baby (five months) with colic and have been ragged with no sleep. I sleep so lightly that I just don’t get much rest at all and I felt like I was losing my mind.

With the Waiora Fast2Sleep strips I am still waking up when Justin screams, but I go back off to sleep again, and my husband is using it too.

We are both calmer and more rested and I think that is also helping Justin settle more, Thank you!

FIBROMYALGIA AND NEURALGIA

I suffer from fibromyalgia and neuralgia that really plagues my days. I have not slept more than an hour or two continuously for over 15 years.

After my first two days on Waiora’s Fast2sleep (Calmer but still not more than 4 hours sleep) I noticed that my pain was a little less during the day, so I did an experiment. I have been cutting one little strip into quarters and then I took a quarter at lunch, one at 4pm, one at 6pm, one at 8pm and then I take a full strip at 10pm when I go to bed, in just two weeks I am getting 6 hours of solid sleep, and my pain has decreased dramatically, both at night and during the day. I am now cutting back to two quarter strips, one at 2pm and one at 6pm plus my nighttime strip and so far it’s working well.

~ David Lee, Australia

OCD AND PANIC ATTACKS

I suffer from OCD and panic attacks. I have been dissolving a tiny piece of the Waiora Fast2Sleep sleep strip (maybe a quarter to an eighth?) on the roof of my mouth during the day if I feel myself getting really tense or having that dry mouth and racing heart that indicates I’m going into that anxiety. And generally I’ve been much calmer since the strips, which I take at night as directed too. I think they are better than any drug I’ve tried.
