Living in the wine country, show me a wine that does not contain sulfites and taste and colour adjuvants? There goes the resveratrol sulfites will kill the benefits, a direct assault on the microbiome and who can afford a wine without these?....20, 30$ and more and even then.

I can’t easily find what dosage thatwas used in some of the studies you cited. Would you mind sharing this information? Just doing some googling it looks like a therapeutic dose might have to be much higher than a typical supplement somewhere in the range of 2 mg or more?

We believe resveratrol is present in the formulation we have along with quercetin, Apeginin and Luteolin. This is an ongoing development so please sign up to follow. https://www.archaealife.com

Lingonberries grow abundantly around our house. We pick them in the fall, freeze them and eat them year round. They are high in resveratrol.

From the study "Resveratrol has been shown to upregulate ACE2. A deficiency of ACE2 caused by SARS is associated with lung injury. The upregulation of ACE2 by resveratrol might provide protective effects in COVID-19". my note: might? depending on the timing of resveratrol treatment? in what population? Yes, resveratrol is in my "old person" covid kit.

Despite what the establishment, maintain the treatment status quo, faked up, misreported studies supporting the continuation of blood pressure drugs that cause a great up-regulation of ACE2, these studies actually do show a substantial increased risk from covid especially in the elderly attributable to the greatly increased number of ACE2 for the viral binding. Thus the timing of the up-regulation of ACE2 may be important especially in the elderly, possibily indicating "not so much for prevention", yes, asap for early treatment, who knows?

With the "development" of both increasingly infective and virulent variants maxing out, to date, with gamma P1? Then the 2 year development of omicron with its "developed" much higher infectivity with "developed" ability to bind to many many cell surface receptors and gain cell entry and lower, at least initial, virulence, though still causing problems for the multi-vaxed and multi-infected immune system -

who knows? the relative effect of resveratrol up-regulation of ACE2, especially when compared to the up-regulation of ACE2 caused by blood pressure drugs, now that omicron is circulating. Yes, I am still taking some lisinopril and practice, so far at least, effective prevention.

In these studies, what was considered a low dose in terms of like mg for your average say 60, 80 or 100kg adult? How does usually below 10 μM and 25 μM translate in terms of say if we were to supplement in mg per day?
