What Is Pterostilbene Powder？

Pterostilbene is a naturally occurring polyphenol and a member of the stilbene family of compounds. It is found in small amounts in various plants, including blueberries, grapes, and certain types of wood. One of the richest sources is the heartwood of Pterocarpus marsupium (Indian Kino tree).

Chemically, pterostilbene is known as the dimethyl ether analog of resveratrol. While closely related to resveratrol in structure, it differs in its methylated form, which makes it more lipophilic. This unique characteristic allows pterostilbene to pass through cell membranes more easily and results in higher bioavailability and longer half-life in the body compared to resveratrol. Thanks to its high bioavailability, pterostilbene is valued for its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, neuroprotective, metabolic, and potential anti-cancer benefits.

In supplement form, Pterostilbene Powder is widely used as a dietary ingredient in capsules, tablets, and functional foods. Its enhanced bioavailability compared to resveratrol makes it a promising compound for long-term health support.
