    Really
    Er.

    No.

    Grapes are very rich in resveratrol. Because the compound is located mostly in the skin, red wine has a high concentration since it includes grape skins. One 5 oz. glass of red wine contains about 1 mg resveratrol, as does grape juice made from red grapes. White and rose wines contain less resveratrol, about 0.2 to 0.5 mg per glass. Peanuts and peanut butter also contain small amounts, about 0.2 mg per cup. Resveratrol supplements are available from health food stores. These contain 10 to 50 mg resveratrol per capsule.

      Er.

      What about these pills then? What do you think?
      Containing 1000 mg each, talk about truckload of resveratrol.

      Forget red wine and peanuts.

        I wonder if there are any drawbacks in taking resveratrol is such high amounts.

          Apparently not (as much as I googled on the net).
          But - read this

          The group of patients that has assumed only resveratrol didn't show any modification on the PSA, while the group treated with resveratrol and curcumin showed with great surprise a reduction, sometimes also relevant, in variable time periods. Moreover, during this testing, the patients treated with resveratrol and curcumin surprisingly showed positive improvements in the treatment of psoriasis and the attenuation and even a stop of the hair loss, a reduction of the hair graying and the rebirth of hair in bald areas sometimes even of the original color too.

          This study says R alone gives little to none result on hair but in synergy with curcumin - showed good results.

            ^ so apparently we have to take both resveratrol and curcumin...

            Also keep in mind that the guy who is writing articles on that site is not really an "expert". He makes money out of every sale that occurs from his site so it's in his best interest to promote his regimen as an absolute cure for hair loss

              Indeed.
              We should find more sources on the net before confirming this info.
