Since the discovery of resveratrol, researchers have been examining similar compounds occurring in other natural foods. Among the most promising ones to date is Pterostilbene, a phytonutrient found in certain fruits (especially blueberries). Although it is similar to resveratrol, Pterostilbene differs from it in some material respects: it seems to be better absorbed and shows better metabolic stability. Put differently, when taking Pterostilbene, most of it is absorbed by your system and remains active for a longer period of time. Preliminary studies indicate that Pterostilbene offers antioxidant benefits that may be independent of those of resveratrol, but also complementary thereto. Technologies used in the development of our patented pTeroPure™ Pterostilbene are licensed by the USDA Agricultural Research Service and the University of Mississippi, which guarantees the purity and stability of the product offered.
