Many doctors recommend a “baseline evaluation” before taking or making changes in pharmaceuticals or nutraceuticals. The question is which baselines make sense for Resveratrol and Red Wine grape extracts.

While these baselines are not necessary or required before taking supplements, you should consider asking your doctor for recommendations.

First, baselines and blood tests depend upon your particular physiology, and the expected benefits of the nutraceutical. For Resveratrol and Red Wine polyphenol extracts, it has been scientifically shown that the following levels can be effected. Of course, you should consult your physicians to determine the appropriate tests for you personally.

• Blood sugar levels
• Fats, lipids and cholesterol
• Hormonal Levels

Blood Sugar Levels

The HgA1C (hemoglobin A1C) blood test is recommended as a medical measure to test and determine the cumulative effects of high levels of blood sugar. It measures the amount of glucose binding to the hemoglobin of red blood cells.  Blood sugar, HgA1C, and insulin levels are a predictor of the propensity for type 2 diabetes. In tests of a population of patients taking Vindure 900, blood sugar levels have been taken pre- and post- treatment, and have been shown to decrease over time.

Fats, Lipids and Cholesterol

A lipid and fat profile generally includes LDL cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, triglycerides and total cholesterol. Excessive fat levels can lead to inflammation in the body. Of course, cholesterol is also a potential marker for cardiovascular issues. Once again, patients taking Vindure 900 have in some cases shown a decrease in many lipid levels.

Hormonal Levels

Abnormal hormonal levels are markets to a wide variety of potential issues in humans. Thyroid dysfunction is one of the most frequent problems, and may be associated with overweight patients. Thyroid deficiencies can also lead to fatigue, dry skin, weight gain, and other issues.

Other hormonal levels to be tested are estrogen, testosterone, growth hormone, and others. As always, a physician should be consulted.
