Identity
Trans-pterostilbene
The trans isomer and exact compound are stated.
Inside the formula
Pterostilbene and resveratrol are related stilbenes, not interchangeable ingredients. This formula supplies trans-pterostilbene on its own at 500mg per capsule.
Identity
The trans isomer and exact compound are stated.
Structure
Structural differences from resveratrol affect chemistry but do not make every outcome “superior.”
Evidence
Short-term human safety work exists; broad cognitive or longevity benefits are not established.

The methylated stilbene
3,5-dimethoxy-4′-hydroxystilbene
What it is: Pterostilbene is a naturally occurring stilbene found in small amounts in blueberries and other plants. It is structurally related to resveratrol.
Evidence context: Human studies are comparatively limited. A short-term study evaluated repeated oral pterostilbene exposure and safety-related measures.
The single-active formula avoids implying that chemical similarity makes pterostilbene a proven replacement for resveratrol.

The formulation rationale
Trans isomer + declared amount: The label specifies trans-pterostilbene and 500mg rather than a generic polyphenol blend.
Methylation + pharmacology: Pterostilbene’s methyl groups change its properties relative to resveratrol; “different” is more accurate than universally “better.”
Safety data + outcome gap: Short-term human exposure data do not establish cognitive, cardiovascular or longevity benefits.
