It’s not news that a red-wine-a-day may be good for you health, but scientists have recepntly pin-pointed the exact health benefit. They call it resveratrol, and you should learn more about this potentially breakthrough health find.
FROM ABC NEWS:
What if you could take the best part of red wine and concentrate them inside a pill — would you get all the health benefits?
Some scientists have isolated the molecule and tests with mice have proved very promising.
This will revoluationize medicine – if they can develop drugs for humans and help treat all of the disease that come with old age.
This Harvard educated scientist thinks we are on the brink of seeing a new round of drugs that will help us age in a more helpful way. Their fidnings suggest that resveratrol effectively changes various genetic compontents of aging — and may change the world.
Resveratrol binds to certain cells and tells these cells to move into a ‘defense mode.’ This defense mode is similar to the mode the body goes into when calories are restricted. When the body starts to recieve less calories, the body prepares for famine by increasing the immune system and running certain aspects of bodily functions more efficently.
The scientists are still waiting for tests results to make complete conclusions. Until then, it may be a good idea to start taking resveratrol supplements.
