Red Wine Resveratrol
You have probably heard for years that drinking one glass of red wine per day is good for your health. Doctors were never quite sure why this was, but groups of people, such as the French, who drink this amount of red wine have significantly lower numbers of heart problems as a whole. It was only recently, when scientists started studying this French paradox, that they realized it was the red wine resveratrol that was the cause of these health benefits.
Resveratrol is a natural antioxidant most prevalent in the skins of red grapes. Since the skins are left on longer in the fermentation process of red wine it has the highest concentration of any natural source of resveratrol.
Studies into these health benefits are still very young, when it comes to human trials, but it looks like we may have come close to finding the fountain of youth. Some researchers claim that in the next five years they will have harnessed the power of this anti-oxidant, and it will allow a 90 year old person to feel like they are 50 or 60 again.
