Abstract
The present invention discloses a method for using sonication to achieve a homogenized blended oil and trans-resveratrol base and functions as a multi-use men's skin. hair, and anti-aging product for irritated skin. The Trans-resveratrol used in the present disclosure is sourced from Japanese Knotweed, Polygonum cuspidatum roots. Trans-resveratrol is a super antioxidant with a high concentration of polyphenols. Trans-resveratrol is derived from the Japanese Knotweed plant and is significantly more potent than the more commonly known, cis-resveratrol. The healing properties of Trans-resveratrol include decreased inflammation, improved cardiovascular health, and anti-aging effects, reduced impact of hangovers and intoxication, increased antioxidants in a person's blood stream, improved the appearance of complexion, reduced impact on skin from exhaustion or lack of sleep, healed body and muscles after exercise, and reduced impact of stress on body.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS
[0025] The present disclosure generally provides a method of manufacture fir a trans-resveratrol skin preparation. FIG. 1 shows the Japanese Knotwood or Polygonum cuspidatum plants. Polygonum cuspidatum is a member of the buckwheat family and the plant is upright, shrubby, herbaceous. The plant is a woody perennial that can grow to heights of ten to fifteen feet. The stems 1.1 are smooth, stout, and hollow. The plant bears large, heart shaped leaves 1.2 and has branched sprays of small white flowers 1.3, which bloom in late summer and fall. The Japanese knotwood plant also develops small triangular winged seeds. The roots of the Japanese Knotwood plant are processed to extract trans-resveratrol.
[0026] FIG. 2 shows the production and harvesting process for resveratrol. Crops that contain trans-resveratrol, such as certain fruits and vegetables as well as Japanese Knotwood plants are grown on farms 2.1. The crops or Japanese knotwood plants are harvested 2.2 and transported 2.3 to processing facilities. At these facilities, the roots of the Japanese knotwood plants are isolated 2.4 from the other portions of the plant. The Japanese knotwood roots are heated and the trans-resveratrol concentrate is extracted 2.5 from the plant's roots. The extracted trans-resveratrol concentrate solution is then sieved 2.6 to isolate the trans-resveratrol from the plant pans. The trans-resveratrol concentrate may be stabilized and combined with the other ingredients, such as oil and/or triglycerides, to produce the trans-resveratrol-based skin preparation.
[0027] FIG. 3 shows stabilization of trans-resveratrol in an oil form using a Q-Sonica ultrasonic machine running at 24 hz. The extracted and sieved trans-resveratrol concentrate passes through an additional chilling unit, water-cooled transducer 3.1, as the jacketed tank, reactor chamber with jacket 3.3, cannot maintain the batch of trans-resveratrol at a low enough temperature for optimal cell disruption. All ingredients of the present disclosure are added into the storage tank 3.2 and mixed for approximately sixty (60) minutes before the pump 3.4 is turned on to shuttle the sample towards the half-wave barbell horn 3.5 of the sonication probe. The barbell horn amplifies the ultrasonic amplitudes while maintaining large output tip diameters, which makes it possible to scale up high intensity ultrasonic processes such as the present method of preparing trans-resveratrol skin preparation. This cycle consists of a ninety (90) second sonication phase and ninety (90) second pause, repeated for a total of thirty (30) minutes of sonication time. This results in a one (1) hour total run time with the pump 3.4 on and two (2) hours total mixing time for both the “Non-Pump” and “Pump” phasing, this sonication system and process is powered by a generator with amplitude, frequency and power display 3.6.
[0028] FIG. 4 shows the molecular structure of resveratrol, cis resveratrol versus trans-resveratrol. The trans-resveratrol molecule is a super antioxidant which is biologically active and the preferred substance for the present trans-resveratrol skin preparation. Trans-resveratrol is generally less widely known but is more potent than the cis-resveratrol. Trans-resveratrol is also more stable than Cis-resveratrol when protected from light. The healing properties of resveratrol include decreased inflammation, improved cardiovascular health, and anti-aging effects on the skin and body. Once the present formula is manufactured, it must be protected from light in order to prevent oxidation and decreased shelf-life. The present formulation is most optimally stored in dark bottles made of glass or stainless steel. The present formulation contains unique ingredients such as organic capric triglyceride, organic jojoba oil, organic rosehip oil and trans-resveratrol. Products from competitors typically contain possibly dozens of ingredients, including additional additives, including some which may have been linked to cancer, and also contribute to the long shelf life of those competitor products. The present disclosure is devoid of such adulterants and additives, which impact the natural properties of the skin preparation.
[0029] FIG. 5 shows the detailed specification of 98% trans-resveratrol including test/observation, specifications, and results. The extracted or sieved trans-resveratrol must be 98% trans-resveratrol at a minimum. It may be in powder form and either white or light yellow in color. It is also soluble in ethanol and does not contain pesticides. It is also devoid of any significant amounts of metals, bacteria or other adulterants or additives.
