What is Pterostilbene?

Due to European legislation, we are not allowed to name the possible benefits of Pterostilbene on the human body. For this, we refer you to non-profit websites or websites with scientific articles. We would like to explain below what function and benefits it has in the plant kingdom and why so much research is being done on it.

The function of Pterostilbene in plants

Pterostilbene is a phytoalexin, which means it is a substance produced by plants in response to stressful conditions such as infection, injury, or exposure to UV radiation. In plants, the substance serves as a defense mechanism to protect the plant from external threats. When a plant is exposed to stress, it activates certain genes responsible for pterostilbene production. This helps the plant to survive by reducing the damage caused by the stressor. 

It also has antimicrobial properties, which means it can help fight infection and disease in the plant. In addition, it can also act as an antioxidant in plants. It can help neutralize free radicals and prevent oxidative damage to the plant cells. This, in turn, can contribute to the overall health of the plant and contribute to the quality and quantity of crop yields.

Difference between pterostilbene and resveratrol?

Pterostilbene and resveratrol are both natural polyphenols found in certain fruits and berries, including blueberries, grapes, and cranberries. Although structurally similar, there are some key differences between the two compounds.  

  • One of the main differences between these two supplements is the potency of action. Pterostilbene has been found to be more potent than resveratrol, meaning it is more effective.
  • Another difference between the two compounds is their bioavailability, or how easily they are absorbed and used by the body. Pterostilbene has been found to have better bioavailability than resveratrol, meaning that it is more easily absorbed and used by the body. It is absorbed about 4 times more easily than resveratrolIt has also been shown to stay in our cells 7 times longer than resveratrol.

 

How do you use Pterostilbene?

  • Dissolve a maximum of 250mg daily in water
  • Can be taken during intermittent fasting without breaking the fast
  • For better absorption, use with a meal, preferably with fat such as low-fat yogurt or nuts
  • Keep refrigerated after opening
  • We recommend for the exact measurement of this supplement  precision scale of 
  • Or use with the supplied measuring spoon. Spoon contains approximately 0,4 grams, so measuring exactly is a bit more difficult.
  • If you use medication or are under the treatment of a doctor, always consult with the treating doctor before using supplements.
  • Supplements are not a substitute for a healthy diet and lifestyle

Is Pterostilbene safe to use?

Pterostilbene is considered safe up to a dose of 250 mg per day. However, some people may experience elevated LDL cholesterol when taking it. There are currently no studies on the safety of pterostilbene for children or for pregnant or breastfeeding women. Since this compound is commonly found in food and considered healthy, small doses should be safe for everyone; however, caution is advised at higher doses. Always consult with your doctor before giving this supplement to children or if you plan to take it yourself if you are pregnant or nursing.

Pterostilbene in food

It is most abundant in blueberries, with estimated levels per blueberry ranging from 99 nanograms to 520 nanograms depending on the species of blueberry. A nanogram is equal to only 0,000 000 001 grams, which means that you get very little per blueberry. Want to If you eat a whole 340 gram container of blueberries, the total amount of pterostilbene is only 0,03 to 0,18 mg, and based on the dose used in limited human studies, which is 100mg to 250mg per day, that would be a huge amount of blueberries per day! 

So if you want to get this amount naturally as dietary supplements provide, you have to really love blueberries, not to mention the high cost of buying that much fruit. Realistically, this is not feasible. It is also found in small amounts in almonds, grape leaves and vines, cranberries and lingonberries.

Pterostilbene is a substance that belongs to the stilbene family, just like resveratrol. It occurs naturally in various foods, but in relatively small amounts. Here are some foods that naturally contain Pterostilbene:

  1. Blueberries contain the highest concentration of Pterostilbene. but as explained above this is still very little
  2. Raspberries: about 0,052 milligrams of pterostilbene per 100 grams.
  3. Strawberries: about 0,032 milligrams of pterostilbene per 100 grams.
  4. Red grapes contain more Pterostilbene than white grapes, about 0,030 milligrams of pterostilbene per 100 grams
  5. Almonds and peanuts also contain small amounts, about 0,002 milligrams of pterostilbene per 100 grams
  6. Bark of the Pterocarpus marsupium tree: Another source of Pterostilbene is the bark of the Pterocarpus marsupium tree, which is traditionally used in Ayurvedic medicine.
