Remember that ‘French paradox’ study done in the 90’s that said wine could make you live a healthier life? Well, recently scientists have found the actual compound in wine that prevents cell death in oxygen-starved conditions called Resveratrol.
So what does this mean? Well, potentially the end of diabetes, Alzheimer’s, heart disease, and cancer.
When Resveratrol tested on mice with a high-fat diet, the results were astounding. Those not on the pill significantly gained more weight, could only run half as far, and lived 20% shorter lives.
As stated in this video, only 1 out of 10 drugs that benefit mice are proven to benefit human beings. However, it should be noted that Resveratrol is a natural compound currently for sale in health food stores.
The synthetically modified drug version is the one that has yet to be released.
