Anyone wanna go halves on some resveratrol?

Never enough
So I figured out that from custom capsule you can get 500mg of resveratrol between 2 caps (they use the 50% stuff) for $104 for 150 servings (300 caps). Its a bit steep to buy at once, and its 5 months worth that way (so only $20/mo, really a spectacular price for that dosage). Wondering if anyone would want to go in with me on that, just to defray some of the cost. I'm even interested in potentially adding other compounds to the caps if it makes sense.

I have to look thru PA's and some of the life extension forums posts to see what helps with resveratrol absorption to maybe add.
 
That was a good idea, with the 25 mg naringin and 500 each of quercetin and resveratrol, it comes to $58 for 2 months worth that way (since pricing is based on 300 caps), so under $1.00 a day.
 
I think PA's "miracle formula" for a Resveratrol regimen was 1200mg of Resveratrol with 600mg of Quercetin with a hint of added Piperine.

Both Quercetin and Piperin facilitate the absorbtion of Resveratrol although through different mechanisms.

I took 1000mg of Resveratrol with about 1000mg of Quercetin for a month a couple of months back, but didn't feel anything out of the ordinary, though. :)
 
yeah, i'm taking 6-oxo extreme right now, so I was referring to the ingredients on it :) equal parts quercetin and active resveratrol (since its from 50% powder). His dosage recommendation is at 2x label to reach that 1200mg range which is just cost prohibitive. A $40 bottle lasts 7.5 days that way

So, Patrick's idea is basically to take 1200mg of both resveratrol and quercetine per day, I see. :)

I can also understand the cost issue here - the cost for resveratrol is steep to say the least!

Superdosing with these antioxidants can really set you back some big $s, that's why I in that other thread am trying so hard to find out is it just waste of money. :D
 
Expensive to test yourself in less that perfect conditions to know if it works or if it is a placebo or other substance adding to the effect. Most people don't just want to run a single type of supp and discontinue all other supps etc.

I'd be hard pressed to spend large amounts of money in without knowing for sure that i'm getting solid gains in my health.

Resveratrol does seem to be the "flavor of the day" for mass media, which makes it somewhat suspect. I can say that in taking the 6-oxo extreme (with the rest of what I am taking) made a significant difference in libido. Which was amazing considering how high it had already been. It feels like I am 17 again libido wise, maybe even better than then. 3x a day has happened a few days now :D And some of those times there is even someone else in the room!

Well, I tried it (1000mg of Resveratrol) with 1000mg of Quercetin for about a month - did not notice anything out-of-this-world positive, but did not notice anything negative either. But,for long term effects, it's of course hard to tell.

Actually I think I failed to take 1000mg of Resveratrol as I forgot to check what % extract the generic Resveratrol I was taking was.

I think I need to try 6-OXO and just trust that PA has all the ingredients down pat there (no pun intended). So, no need to sweat with the dosing and extracts on your own. :D

I DEF need to try 6-OXO, too! :D

Ahhh very nice! Mostly I want the reserveratrol/Quercertin

(damn those suck to even attempt to spell right)

The other ingredients went in just to see what a 6-oxo extreme without the 6 oxo would cost :) Keep me informed, I've actully got a few weeks of 6-oxo extreme on hand anyhow, so i'm not in a rush. And resveratrol is the "flavor of the month" as far as media attention goes, so it would be popular to bring out a strong one. Looks like 500mg of resveratrol done as 2 caps using the 50% stuff works out best pricewise from all i've seen. the 97% stuff could just fit into one cap, which is nice if you are shooting for the 2g/day dosing. I'm looking for 500mg-1g a day i'm thinkin

Have you looked at the research on this stuff? It's pretty ill sh*t.

And although I really hate foreshadowing tentative things, there could be a rather intriguing resveratrol-based product to come later in the year.

I believe the 1200mg range is to gain an anabolic effect rather then just the cortisol modulation as it's marketed for. Yes, the 6-oxo Extreme in this case would be mucho expensive, but to try and "reverse engineer" the profile may be as well. I'd be interested to see what you come up with though.

I think you are thinking the 11-oxo ala 3ad. the 6-oxo double dose is just PA's recommendation, to hit the 1g a day point of resveratrol. That was the dosage where people hit the ludicrous testosterone boosts. Whats in the caps was as much as he could stuff in without raising the dose to requiring more than 5 caps. Also pricing as you can see is prohibitive, basically 500/500 resveratrol/quercertin costs $1/day more or less, so its a larger part of the cost than the 6-oxo part is. At regular dose its 15 days for $40, but if the resvaratrol alone was doubled, it would be $55 for 15 days, which is just about unsellable :D at least to mass market. I'd buy it tho. Its crazy stuff, well worth it just from the way I feel.

After 3 days of taking it, I was performing better sexually than I ever have even in my teens, so much so that I decided to stop it, and save it for a post cycle therapy usage. 2 days without and I decided to go back on it, and ordered 2 more bottles :D

My bad, you are right, I was thinking 11-oxo. That's what I get for jumping into a topic after I just woke up :sad:
Sorry about that. Good to hear you are liking the Resveratrol, I've never experimented with it.
