Resveratrol is one of the more talked about compounds in the antioxidant world, largely thanks to its connection with red wine and red grape skins. Here is what it is, what it is actually used for, and what a resveratrol IV infusion looks like in Phuket.
What resveratrol is
Resveratrol is a natural compound found in the skin of red grapes and a handful of other plants. It is best known as a strong antioxidant, and research has connected it to supporting healthy cholesterol levels, blood vessel function and general cellular ageing through its effect on a protein called sirtuin.
Why not just drink red wine
You would need an impractical amount of wine to get a meaningful dose of resveratrol, along with all the alcohol that comes with it. Oral resveratrol supplements also break down quickly in the body, so very little reaches your bloodstream intact. An IV infusion delivers the compound directly, at a dose that would be difficult to get any other way.
What it is used for
- Supporting healthy cholesterol and blood circulation
- General antioxidant and cellular support
- Healthy ageing routines alongside other wellness infusions
- Blood sugar support as part of a broader plan
Dosage and price
We offer resveratrol at 250 mg for 5,000 THB, or 500 mg for 8,000 THB. A registered nurse brings everything needed to your hotel, villa or home, and the infusion is given at a relaxed pace.
An honest note
Resveratrol research is active and generally positive, particularly around heart health and antioxidant activity, but much of it is still developing. We describe what the compound does and why people choose it, not guaranteed outcomes. If you take blood thinners or have a heart condition, mention this to us before booking so the nurse can advise you.
