Micronized Resveratrol & Tween 80 Herbal Dietary Supplement Introduced by RevGenetics
RevGenetics releases its newest resveratrol herbal supplement, the Nitro250, a 250mg nitrogen gas filled capsule offering liquid micron resveratrol delivery
Miami, FL (PRWEB) January 8, 2009 -- RevGenetics, a company dedicated to developing and advancing herbal products for overall health, announces the availability of its latest resveratrol supplement, the Nitro250. A RevGenetics exclusive, the supplement is designed to provide consumers greater absorption benefits than other supplements that do not use micronized resveratrol.
Nitro250 is composed of micronized resveratrol and Tween 80 (a registered trademark of ICI Americas, Inc.). Each (Licaps®, Capsugel®) capsule contains 250mg trans-resveratrol, which has been micronized to a particle size averaging 1.5 microns to increase its effectiveness and absorption. Based on outside absorption studies using small amounts of Tween 80, RevGenetics estimates the new product called the Nitro250 to be the company's best liquid emulsified resveratrol capsule to date.
"A 100mg resveratrol product is simply much too low for healthy people. At RevGenetics we believe that a minimum of 250mg of micronized resveratrol with Tween 80 will allow greater absorption for our customers compared to many regular dry powder resveratrol capsules or drinks that customers are currently taking," says Anthony Loera, President of RevGenetics.
Nitro250 features a liquid micron delivery system in a nitrogen gas capsule made by Capsugel®. Each Licaps® capsule of the supplement is opaque and protected internally with nitrogen gas. Even if the bottle is left opened on your kitchen counter, or the capsules are transferred into another container, the Nitro250 capsules will continue to remain protected for long term storage. The versatility of this capsule technology is something no small packet oxygen absorber, or nitrogen gas filled bottle can ever match.

Are there any side effects or dangers for people taking Micronized Resveratrol and Tween 80?
from RevGenetics Customer Questions on Jan 10, 2009

We have looked for human studies regarding Polysorbate 80 (tween 80) side effects on humans, and have found none at this time.
If one does show up that we may have missed, I ask you to please email me to show us the human study. We will post it here as part of this answer.
There are a few items that we have found regarding tween in animal studies:
1. Some pregnant animals are reported to have an earlier maturation regarding the fetus, when injecting tween directly into the bloodstream.
2. No Issues have been found in pregnant animals that have taken oral doses of Polysorbate 80.
3. The FDA considers this safe enough for many foods that children eat, including ice cream, and whip toppings.
4. Both the World Health Organization the FDA and their expert scientists recognize the safety of Polysorbate 80 and have food limits that all supplement companies abide by, including RevGenetics.
The product is absolutely safe. We do not recommend any supplement, including ours to be taken intravenously, injected, or taken in any other fashion that is not recommended by the product label. It is silly to consider taking any food or supplement intravenously, unless it is made specifically for this purpose and prescribed by a doctor.
I hope this helps

Polysorbate 80 is a possible health hazard to humans. Beware of this compound
from Health Alerts and Warnings on Jan 10, 2009

Another day, another resveratrol scam. This latest one is not only irresponsible but may be seriously dangerous to human health as well. A Florida based resveratrol reseller has begun adding the industrial chemical Polysorbate 80 to their product. The company claims that this chemical, also known by the trade name Tween and Tween 80, increases bioavailability of the resveratrol contained in the company's supplement, something they call Nitro250. There is absolutely no evidence to support this claim. Tween is not intended to be used for this purpose and can be toxic at doses easily consumed in such supplements. It is commonly used in detergents, shampoos and degreasers. There is no evidence that Tween in any way enhances resveratrol bio activity or any other beneficial property. It is an emulsifier whose function is to break down fats and grease. Resveratol is not a fat, although it is soluble in oil. Consequently Tween use in a supplement clearly for marketing purposes is an outrageous and irresponsible violation of product safety and common sense. However the bigger issue is that Tween has been associated with severe side effects in humans.
The anti HPV vaccine Gardasil contains Polysorbate 80, which is linked to infertility in mice,” noted Dee Nicholson, National Communications Director for Freedom in Canadian Health Care. [Nov 2007] Sleight of Handling: More Merck Magic Tricks With HPV Vaccine By Christopher C. Barr
A study published in December, 2005 discovered that Tween 80 can cause anaphylaxis, a sometimes fatal reaction characterized by a sharp drop in blood pressure, hives, and breathing difficulties. Researchers concluded that the severe reaction was not a typical allergic response characterized by the combination of IgE antibodies and the release of histamines; it was caused by a serious disruption that had occurred within the immune system.
The current research on the stabilizer Tween 80 reveals the following: “Neonatal female rats were injected ip (0.1 ml/rat) with Tween 80 in 1, 5 or 10 percent aqueous solution on days 4-7 after birth. Treatment with Tween 80 accelerated maturation, prolonged the oestrus cycle, and induced persistent vaginal oestrus. The relative weight of the uterus and ovaries was decreased relative to the untreated controls. Squamous cell metaplasia of the epithelial lining of the uterus and cytological changes in the uterus were indicative of chronic oestrogenic stimulation. Ovaries were without corpora lutea, and had degenerative follicles.” ~ PMID: 8473002. Female lab rats injected with Tween 80 developed impaired sexual organs as well as premature development of their sexual organs. Exploring Vaccines
"Previous studies by Gajdova et al. have shown that polysorbate 80 (also known as Tween 80) administered by intraperitoneal injection to neonatal female rats on days 4-7 after birth produced estrogenic effects including earlier vaginal opening, prolongation of the estrus cycle and persistent vaginal estrus. Some of these effects were evident many weeks after cessation of administration of polysorbate 80." [Gajdova et al - "Delayed effects of neonatal exposure to Tween 80 on female reproductive organs in rats." Food Chem Toxicol 31(3):183-90 (1993) Institute of Preventive and Clinical Medicine.]
Tween is actually a synthetic chemical compound consisting of Polysorbate 80, also known as polyoxyethylene sorbitan, and various other chemical species. In the Sigma Aldrich chemicals catalog buyers are warned that Tween is "For laboratory use only. Not for drug, household or other uses." The World Health Organisation also suggests that the compound is not safe for human consumption beyond "acceptable daily intake limits of 0-25 mg of polyoxyethylene sorbitan esters per kg body weight."
The Clorox-made cleaning solution used by the iRobot Scooba floor-washing robot lists Tween 20 as one of its major ingredients on its MSDS. Tween variants are known as Tween 20,60, and 80 and are produced by several chemical companies, primarily in China.
