Antioxidants In Anti-Aging Creams -

Resveratrol

Resveratrol is potent polyphenolic antioxidant that is abundant in red grapes and, therefore, in red wine extract. It is also found in certain vines, pine trees, peanuts. Resveratrol has been reported in numerous studies to be one of the most potent natural chemopreventive agents inhibiting the cellular processes associated with tumor development, including initiation, promotion, and progression. It also has significant anti-inflammatory properties. Conversely, there is research showing it to be associated with cell death when applied topically if skin is exposed to sunlight.
