The properties of Pterostilbene

Pterostilbene (trans-3,5-dimethoxy-4-hydroxystilbene) is a stilbenoid chemically related to resveratrol. In plants, it serves a defensive phytoalexin role. Pterostilbene differs from resveratrol by exhibiting increased bioavailability (80% compared to 20% in resveratrol) due to the presence of two methoxy groups which cause it to exhibit increased lipophilic and oral absorption.

Pterostilbene:

May increase LDL (Pterostilbene on metabolic parameters: a randomized, double-blind, and placebo-controlled trial).
Promotes cellular health while aging when paired with TRU NIAGEN®(nicotinamide riboside).
Promotes healthy energy metabolism (in rats) (Repeat dose NRPT (nicotinamide riboside and pterostilbene) increases NAD+ levels in humans safely and sustainably: a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study).
May reduce oxidative stress (in human cells in vitro).
May support mood in preliminary studies (in mice).
May promote cognitive health during aging (in animals).
