Natural and powerful trans-resveratrol in one capsule a day

Resveratrol 500mg + BioPerine® from EssentialSeries is a food supplement made from trans-resveratrol and black pepper.

This food supplement provides a high concentration of pure trans-resveratrol (500mg) from a highly concentrated extract of Fallopia japonica root (200:1), one of the most used and concentrated natural sources of this polyphenol. It’s combined with BioPerine^®, a patented extract of Piper nigrum that contains piperine, widely used for its role in supporting the bioavailability of compounds with low intestinal absorption.

With just one veggie capsule a day, you can easily add this formula to your daily wellness routine.

What is trans-resveratrol and why is it so sought after?

A polyphenol with great scientific backing

Trans-resveratrol is a specific form of resveratrol, a phenolic compound belonging to the stilbenes family, widely found in plants like grapes, peanuts, or Polygonum cuspidatum (also known as Fallopia japonica). This trans- form is the one that has sparked the most scientific interest as it’s the natural form of resveratrol.

Since its identification in grape skin and its association with the so-called “French paradox” (the observation of a low incidence of cardiovascular diseases in populations with diets rich in fats but also red wine), resveratrol has been one of the most researched natural compounds by nutraceutical research groups, especially linked to healthy aging research lines.¹

Trans-resveratrol is, therefore, the stable and effective form, compared to other structural variants with less biological effect or greater instability. The high concentration dosage of our supplement (500mg) makes it especially interesting for people preparing a product stack aimed at maintaining a varied and balanced diet as part of a healthy aging routine.

High-quality plant origin: Fallopia japonica

The source used to obtain the trans-resveratrol in our supplements is the root of Fallopia japonica (also known as Polygonum cuspidatum), a plant traditionally used in Eastern culture and currently recognized as one of the richest natural sources of pure resveratrol.

The choice of this botanical source is based on stability criteria. Unlike other raw materials containing resveratrol in smaller amounts or undefined mixtures of isomers (like red wine or grape seeds), Fallopia japonica allows working with a well-characterized phytochemical profile, with 100% trans- isomer that meets our quality standards to always offer premium supplements at a fair price.

BioPerine® technology: supports resveratrol bioavailability

One of the main challenges in using trans-resveratrol as a supplement is its low oral bioavailability. Despite its interesting properties, this compound undergoes rapid metabolism, limiting the amount that reaches the body after consumption. To counteract this effect, at HSN we included piperine, the characteristic constituent of black pepper, in its most recognized form: BioPerine^®.

BioPerine^® is a patented extract standardized in piperine developed by Sabinsa Corporation, one of the pioneering companies in nutritional ingredient development. With decades of research behind it, BioPerine^® is a reference in the sector for its quality in optimizing the absorption of numerous nutrients.

In this formula, we include 20mg of BioPerine^® per capsule, providing 19,7mg of pure piperine, in a dose specifically adapted to optimize trans-resveratrol absorption. The combination of resveratrol with piperine has been studied showing how piperine can optimize resveratrol bioavailability:

Beyond its function as a bioavailability enhancer, choosing BioPerine^® guarantees a patented, standardized compound with a solid reputation in the nutritional sector thanks to Sabinsa’s efforts to position its ingredient with the merit it deserves.

A clean, daily-use formula: just the essentials, no extras

At HSN we develop our supplements with a philosophy focused on quality, transparency, and simple, clean development. We created the Resveratrol 500mg + BioPerine^® formula under a clean label standard, without adding any additives for aesthetic purposes.

Also, the veggie capsule format makes the product suitable for vegans.

Thanks to its high concentration, only one capsule a day is needed to reach the full dose, making it easy to use and a comfortable choice to maintain a balanced and hassle-free lifestyle.

Who is resveratrol for?

Resveratrol is especially interesting for:

•  Adults from 35–40 years old who want to boost their personal care routine with important natural compounds that are hard to get in relevant amounts from food.
•  People with an active lifestyle looking to complement their diet with quality nutrients. Ideally athletes training in high-altitude or extreme temperature environments.
•  People looking for supplements alongside other compounds like coenzyme Q10, NAC, alpha-lipoic acid, PQQ or B vitamin complexes.

Frequently asked questions about this product

Where does the resveratrol in this product come from?

From the root extract of Fallopia japonica, a plant rich in trans-resveratrol, standardized to 98% purity.

Is it the same as the resveratrol in red wine?

It’s the same compound (trans-resveratrol), but here it’s obtained from Fallopia japonica and in a much higher and controlled dose than what’s found in red wine.

What role does BioPerine® play?

BioPerine^® provides piperine, which helps optimize the absorption and bioavailability of trans-resveratrol in the body.

Can it be taken year-round?

Yes, it can be taken year-round as part of a continuous use routine.
