Researched for: Pterostilbene evidence and protocol review
Also known as: Dimethylresveratrol
Pterostilbene is a naturally occurring dimethylated analog of resveratrol, with two methoxy groups conferring substantially improved oral bioavailability and metabolic stability versus resveratrol itself. It is studied for similar proposed mechanisms (sirtuin pathway modulation, antioxidant activity), positioned in the geroscience literature as one of the 'natural analogs' that may perform more consistently than resveratrol in human contexts.

Data source: Primary literature, regulator records, trial registries, and identity-specific evidence search
Reflects preclinical/research literature context only. Not a medical claim, dosing instruction, or treatment recommendation.
Amounts and schedules are separated by administration route. Evidence badges distinguish labels, human studies, preclinical work, community reports, and evidence gaps.
125 mg twice daily in a randomized lipid and blood-pressure trial
Context: clinical trial evidence
Formulation: Oral-mucosal formulations are not dose-equivalent to injectable or topical formulations.
Route safety: Research-study protocol only; it is not an approved or individualized instruction and should not be extrapolated to another route.
Do not convert an amount between routes. Bioavailability, formulation, sterility, monitoring, and clinical context differ by route. Research-use context only; independently verify every cited source.
The trial reported LDL-cholesterol increases in some groups; broad anti-aging claims are not established.
