The media is certainly behind the curve on this. I've been using reveratrol for two years now. It's available through the Life Extension Foundation where it can be ordered from their website (www.lef.org). I recommend becoming an LEF member as you get the discounts on the LEF products (around 40%). The membership fee ($75 per year) pays for itself with the $75 "gift" purchase you get for signing up.
I have been using resveratrol for about one month. Plus the mitochondrial optimizer.
Thiamine (vitamin B1) (as thiamine HCI) 50 mg
Acetyl-L-carnitine hydrochloride 750 mg
Acetyl-L-carnitine arginate dihydrochloride 750 mg
Carnosine 1000 mg
Benfotiamine 150 mg
Luteolin [from Perilla leaf extract (Perilla frutescens)] 8 mg
R-lipoic acid (as potassium-R-lipoate) 150 mg
Rhodiola rosea root extract [standardized for 3% 150 mg
Rosavins (4.5 mg) and 1% Salidrosides (1.5 mg)]
For something like Resveratrol, I really suggest looking at the online encyclopedia here, and make an informed decision whether or not to take it:
