Experience for yourself the wellness-boosting power of antioxidant support from Swanson Pterostilbene. With the discovery of resveratrol in grapes, researchers began to examine similar compounds found in other foods. One of the most promising to date is pterostilbene, an antioxidant phytonutrient found in certain berries (especially blueberries). Though related to resveratrol, pterostilbene differs in certain key ways: it appears to be better absorbed and delivers stronger metabolic support. In other words, when you take pterostilbene, more of it gets into your system and remains active longer. Preliminary research suggests that pterostilbene offers antioxidant benefits that may be both independent of and complementary to those of resveratrol. This means that pterostilbene offers enhanced defense against the free radicals which form in the body as a result of exercise, stress or exposure to certain daily pollutants. Swanson Pterostilbene delivers 50 mg of this beneficial antioxidant in each serving to promote healthy aging and lasting wellness.
