Stroke is a condition in which there is a lack of blood flow or bleeding in the brain. cause brain cells to die and cause permanent disability or death which in Thailand It was found that there are more than 250,000 new patients per year, and it is the number one cause of disability and bedrest, as well as the second cause of death after cancer.

Biological mechanisms in preventing stroke "Resveratrol" is extracted from mulberry.

Resveratrol is a type of polyphenol found in abundance in some plants. and especially in "Mulberry" which has a concentrated amount of resveratrol and has high biological activity. Resveratrol reduces the risk of stroke through the following mechanisms:

1. Antioxidant Activity

Resveratrol can reduce the production of free radicals (Reactive Oxygen Species: ROS) that destroy blood vessel walls.

ROS is a stimulant. Chronic inflammation of the blood vessels (vascular inflammation), which is the beginning of narrowing of the blood vessels in the brain.

2. Anti-inflammatory (Anti-inflammatory Effect)

Resveratrol inhibits the production of inflammatory substances such as TNF-α, IL-6, NF-κB.

Reducing inflammation causes the lining of blood vessel walls. (endothelium) is strong, reduces the adhesion of fat stains

3. Promote the function of the lining of blood vessels (Endothelial Function)

Resveratrol stimulates the production of Nitric oxide (NO), which is a substance that causes blood vessels to expand and improve circulation.

Helps reduce blood pressure and prevent stenosis of the cerebral blood vessels

4. Reduce platelet aggregation (Antiplatelet Effect)

Resveratrol inhibits platelet aggregation (platelet aggregation).

Reduce the risk of blood clots in the brain arteries (ischemic stroke).

5. Reduce blood fat levels (Lipid Modulation)

Reduces LDL-C (bad cholesterol) and triglyceride levels.

Increase HDL-C (good cholesterol) levels

Helps prevent the accumulation of fat on the artery walls. (atherosclerosis)

Why is "prevention" better than "treatment" of stroke?

Prevention & Treatment

Prevention is less expensive, such as modifying behavior and taking preventive supplements.

Treatment costs a lot, such as hospital fees. physical therapy

Prevention reduces the risk of being permanently disabled or bedridden.

After treatment, recovery is often not complete.

Protecting the quality of life continuously

Maintaining a significant reduction in quality of life is greatly reduced.

Prevention and control of disease from an early stage

Treatment is usually found when acute symptoms have already occurred.

Continuously taking resveratrol from mulberry Therefore, it is a way to enhance stroke prevention that is supported by scientific evidence. as well as supporting a strong vascular system in the long term
