Resveratrol is a polyphenol in red wine (as well as some berries, peanuts, and several other plants).  It has received a lot of attention from researchers over the last decade due to a range of anti-aging properties. Many studies have demonstrated meaningful cardiovascular benefits, improved outcomes for those with  Alzheimer’s disease. It also has anticancer properties, antimicrobial effects, skin care benefits (17 times greater antioxidant activity than idebenone) and sirtuin activation, specifically SIRT1 which is employed in  repair of DNA breaks. The most significant scientific studies on resveratrol are available on our research page.
