Also, here's a pic of what I got when I sprayed a little ptero and resveratrol with 20% chlorine bleach solution at Maxwatt's suggestion... the red one is resveratrol:

What was the purpose of that experiment?

It's a poor man's kind of litmus test for resveratrol, which should come up red. Like mine did. Polydatin should come up salmon-colored. I really didn't know what to expect from pterostilbene, but it came up yellow. I was kind of hoping someone would verify if that's what its supposed to come up as.

Looks like my results. And nice China you got, Howard.

Thanks, Maxwatt. I'm relieved it wasn't supposed to look like blueberry.

I found Now Foods on Amazon... 50mg pterostilbene / 250mg resveratol. $25

 

Labdoor is starting their testing on Resveratol products but has yet to publish them. However, Now Foods supplements tend to be somewhere in the top A quality rankings in all of their test results.

 

I decided on ordering these.

 

As for the Tylenol conversation. I don't take Tylenol, ever.  It's a mostly useless drug in my opinion and can damage the liver. Aspirin is far better for you, taken on a full stomach with water of course.
