Mega Resveratrol is a U.S.-based nutraceutical company that develops and distributes pharmaceutical-grade dietary supplements, with a primary focus on trans-resveratrol. The company is recognized within the research and clinical health communities for producing high-purity, micronized resveratrol and anti-aging formulations supplied to practitioners and consumers in the United States and internationally. Mega Resveratrol is operated under Candlewood Stars Inc. and is headquartered in Danbury, Connecticut.
History
Mega Resveratrol was founded in 2007 by Doron Efrat, who continues to serve as the company’s President. The company’s origins are rooted in Efrat’s personal health experience following a heart attack in 2003 and a subsequent diagnosis of elevated Lipoprotein(a), a genetic risk factor associated with cardiovascular disease. This experience drove Efrat to investigate natural compounds with documented cardiovascular and antioxidant properties, leading him to trans-resveratrol as the basis for a new line of supplements.
From its inception, the company distinguished itself through a commitment to pharmaceutical-grade quality standards. Efrat partnered with U.S.-based laboratories for independent third-party testing and adopted micronization techniques to enhance the bioavailability of the company’s core products. Under his leadership, Mega Resveratrol expanded from a niche supplement brand into a name recognized across the global research and clinical health landscape.
Products
Mega Resveratrol manufactures a range of dietary supplements built around trans-resveratrol, a naturally occurring polyphenol studied for its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and potential anti-aging properties. All products are independently tested in U.S. laboratories, encapsulated without additives, fillers, or preservatives, and produced in facilities compliant with Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) standards.
Trans-Resveratrol Capsules
The company’s flagship offerings are 250 mg and 500 mg micronized trans-resveratrol capsules. Each capsule contains over 99% pure trans-resveratrol, micronized to under two microns to maximize cellular absorption. The micronization process is reported to enhance bioavailability by up to 1,000% compared to standard non-micronized forms of the compound.
Trans-Resveratrol Powder
In addition to capsules, Mega Resveratrol offers a bulk powder formulation carrying the same pharmaceutical-grade purity as its encapsulated products. This option is designed for users requiring greater flexibility in dosing or who prefer to incorporate the supplement into other preparations.
Resveratrol and Calcium Fructoborate
Mega Resveratrol also produces a combination formula that pairs 250 mg of trans-resveratrol with calcium fructoborate, a naturally occurring boron complex. Calcium fructoborate has been the subject of research examining its potential benefits for joint health, bone density, and cardiovascular function. The formula is positioned for consumers seeking a compound supplement addressing multiple areas of health maintenance.
Quality Standards
A central feature of Mega Resveratrol’s positioning is its adherence to pharmaceutical-grade quality control. Products undergo third-party testing at accredited U.S. laboratories to verify purity and potency. The company’s manufacturing facilities operate under GMP compliance, a regulatory standard that governs the conditions and practices under which dietary supplements are produced. The absence of additives, binders, or artificial preservatives in all formulations reflects the company’s commitment to delivering a clean, unadulterated product to both clinical practitioners and individual consumers.
Recognition and Distribution
Since its founding, Mega Resveratrol has developed a reputation among researchers, integrative medicine practitioners, and health-conscious consumers for the consistency and purity of its products. The company supplies its formulations to practitioners across the United States and to an international customer base, reflecting the global demand for high-quality resveratrol supplementation backed by scientific credibility. Mega Resveratrol’s products have also been used by research universities worldwide across a range of scientific studies examining the properties and health applications of trans-resveratrol.
