The 60 minutes story the profiled to researchers who isolated and discovered the active chemical in red wine that we now know is responsible for its health benefits has definitely sparked a feeding frenzy among health-conscious people who want to get their hands on this miracle drug.

(This has led to a whole host of problems for people who want to buy Resveratrol supplements, and it means that you have to be extra careful in where you order it from. But I really don't want to get off track and get ahead of myself. We'll get to this topic in a second.)

Resveratrol supplements are, in fact, one of the hottest supplements on the market today. It's easy to see why. The lab animals who took the resveratrol supplements acted and appeared at younger than the ones who didn't, according to the 60 Minutes story.

Now, I'm not saying that they actually got younger -- that would be silly. However, when you watch the video that you'll find at the links up above, you'll notice that in just about every test that was given, the subjects who took resveratrol did better on both physical and mental challenges.

This actually led to a lot of very reputable news organizations extolling the benefits of Resveratrol, and even caused a major U.S. drug company to purchase the company that was started by the scientists who discovered resveratrol.

So it's pretty obvious why resveratrol is this such a big deal. In fact, if only a portion of what the researchers who initially studied resveratrol say it can do turn out to be true, this could very well turn out to be the biggest step forward for anyone who really wants to look and feel their best, but who doesn't care to become a gym rat.

There are lots of other benefits that have been reported with Resveratrol that go beyond just things like weight loss and increased physical stamina. There are also many people who point out that resveratrol has been shown to be effective at increasing metabolism, helping with cholesterol, and it shows some promise as an anticancer agent.

So of course with all this I'm sure it seems like a no-brainer that you should run right out and get your own supply of resveratrol right away?

In my opinion, this is something you have to decide for yourself. But what I will say is that if you want to be among the many thousands who are doing it, it's very important that you stick with a Resveratrol supplement that you know is high-quality.
