Resveratrol Supplements: The Dirty Truth About Resveratrol

Resveratrol Supplements: The Dirty Truth About Resveratrol

Every few months – there is a “new kid on the block” when it comes to the next “magic pill” – and just like the recent crackdown on the rip-off Acai berry scam – each new supplement scam fades off into the sunset – only to be replaced by the next disappointing, money wasting “magic pill”…

One of the current ‘new kids’ in the spotlight is Resveratrol – and I highlight today’s feature with a question asked, and answered, inside the private member area at my other site BestFitnessAdvice.com…

Here it is:

HI Joey,

I’m new to the forum, but a long-time dedicated and successful “student” of your fitness program!!! Thanks so much for all of your amazing info!!

I have a question for you….what is your opinion of the much-talked about “Resveritrol” that is being marketed as “THE” youth supplement, claiming to increase energy, erase wrinkles, improve muscle tone etc etc?? It’s pricey, but seems to be well-researched and has been covered by some well-respected people such as Oprah and Dr Oz, and CNN, Today show etc etc!! I trust your judgement and your HONEST opinion, so figured I’d get the scoop from you before I spend my hard-earned money!!!

Thanks much!
Soleil

Here’s my response:

Its the current ’scam/fad’ of the month.

Show me the actual video footage of this (not clever photos on websites created to sell this stuff) “has been covered by some well-respected people such as Oprah and Dr Oz, and CNN, Today show etc etc!!”

Don’t get ’sucked in’ by the clever sales story – Just like acai got taken down recently – this will be next.

There are no magic pills – or ‘newly discovered “shortcuts” – save your money – and do what you know works…

BTW – Thanks for your fantastic complements!!
Joey ;-) )

And Soleil’s reply:

Thanks Joey! LOL, exactly the response I expected…

I DO know better! Your program has been phenomenal in keeping this 41 year old fit and toned for more than a year now. I’m 5′7″ and 118 pounds! BUT…I have one little “spot” that I can never get perfect enough for my taste! I have a little “band” of “extra” at the top of my legs where they meet my butt!

It’s not unsightly or dimpled/cellulite, but is definitely a thicker “fatty area” that I can’t get rid of! I have faithfully used your program every other day for 1.5 years…no fail…no kidding!

It has produced amazing results for me, and truthfully I look better than many women half my age…but, alas, like many people, I’m greedy in wanting to have that “perfect’ body, LOL! If you have any more ideas or suggestions to help me with that one last spot, I’d be grateful…

Soleil

Can I Rock Your Body (Get You In Shape) Even Though I “Can’t Spell”?

We get boatloads of email – EVERYDAY – here at Atlas Headquarters…

And at least a few of them really grab our attention each day – each in their own special way.

Here is one that provides as interesting perspective – and after reading it – you’ll have a better understanding of the title of today’s post. So, enjoy – and please feel free to share your thoughts and comments at the bottom of the post…

Hello, Joey.
I am not writing to be picky. I am writing to share a perspective that could be helpful. Really. I just read your letter about caffeine, etc. I have been enjoying checking out your perspective on fitness and health. I am reading along mentally “deciding” if you are to be trusted. If you are knowledgeable. If you can help me…

Unfortunately, not taking a moment to hit “spellcheck” and revealing that you deliberately don’t know how to spell diarrhea and aren’t going to make the effort to find out how to spell it causes me to doubt your care, and accuracy in presentling other health information. Now, I don’t personally care if you can spell or not and I know the content can still be good but it raises doubt in a reader’s mind…… For me, that causes me to have to work to get past it and becomes an obstacle to credibility.

Maybe other readers find it endearing, amusing or whatever. I am looking for solid information from a thorough, credible person. It is my health (very important) and there are so many options and opinions out there to sift through. If you have a credible opinion, it is helpful to present it that way. With care. And spellcheck. :-)

In appreciation,
Barbara

Before I give you a chance to leave your thoughts below – I wanted to see if you caught Barbara’s misspelling…

“presentling” …I’m not sure that’s a word… hmmm… maybe her ’spellcheck’ wasn’t working…

Barb – don’t take this the wrong way – I do this in fun – …I still appreciate you – and I’m also VERY sure my programs will help you immensely – even though I’m guilty of a few tiepoes here and there ;-)

A Mother’s Day Poem for Joey’s Mom – Mother’s Day 2009

Mother Day 2009 – a Poem for Virginia Gennusa

Late last night – I wrote this half-sleepin’
But I think after readin’ you’ll frame it for keepin’

It was a miraculous day – Some would say heavenly
March 16th, 1970

5 minutes before midnight – you became a mother
And within 4 years you’d add another and another

With infant pneumonia – I tested your mettle
That would be your first sign – life would rarely be settle

Despite my bull-head, and off centered approach
You guided me right – like a tough loving coach

Can’t say you were perfect – heck nobody is
But you still worked your magic – like a natural wiz

I pushed you to the limits – doing some real stupid stuff
Like when the Private I’s rang the bell – Oh man that was rough

But its times like those that give me material for today
And helps us give meaning to this grand holiday

You taught us tradition through Italian food
So now when I cook – my kids are like “Dude!”

All boys Catholic high school – I thought I’d never forgive you
Looking back now – I realize you did actually have your wits with you

With your keen intuition and some old school ways
You raised some good kids – like that show, Happy Days

No more kidding around – all joking aside
Whatever I say to close – must be magnified

I did the best I could in this poem to you
As with my life – that’s what you did too

And your best wasn’t perfect – ‘cuz it didn’t have to be
Your ‘good enough’ was perfect for me

It got me this far – and I’m far from done yet
Bigger things to come? Oh yeah, you bet

So for all you’ve done – and everything you’ve been – there’s only one more thing to say
…and that’s “Mom, I love you, Happy Mother Day”.

Joey
