Apollo’s Hegemony Resveratrol is a dietary supplement containing a standardized extract of Japanese knotweed (Polygonum cuspidatum), providing resveratrol – a natural, strong antioxidant that exhibits many health-promoting properties.

Resveratrol (3,5,4′-trihydroxy-trans-stilbene) is a polyphenol classified to flavonoids, naturally occurring e.g. in the knotweed root or dark grapes. As a polyphenolic compound, resveratrol has strong antioxidant potential, which translates into its multidirectional biological activity.

Reduction of oxidative stress
Oxidative stress is the cause of a great number of civilization diseases, hence the prevention and reduction of this state are extremely important for both prevention and support of the therapy of many diseases. Resveratrol exerts a multi-faceted antioxidant effect. It increases the activity of antioxidant enzymes naturally occurring in the body, reduces the processes of lipid peroxidation, and also inhibits cyclooxygenase-1 (COX-1), which is an activator of the inflammatory reaction.

Cardiovascular health
Thanks to the protection of cellular lipids from oxidization, resveratrol has a positive effect on cardiovascular health. By inhibiting the penetration of oxidized LDL lipoproteins into the walls of the vessels, resveratrol helps to strengthen and improve the elasticity of blood vessels as well as limit the activity of some of the vessel-damaging enzymes. What is more, due to its ability to inhibit thromboxane A2 production, resveratrol shows anticoagulant properties.

Activation of longevity proteins
Resveratrol has also gained popularity due to reports of its impact on the activity of sirtuins – the so-called longevity proteins. These proteins appear to be important regulators of energy metabolism and aging processes at the genetic level. Hence the rejuvenating properties attributed to resveratrol.

To sum up, Apollo’s Hegemony Resveratrol is a natural preparation that is a valuable element of pro-health prophylaxis and antioxidant protection of the body. The product is recommended primarily to support immunity, support circulation, skin health, and general psychophysical condition.
