For many years, red wine has been associated with many health benefits. A new study published in Nature shows that many mammals can get all the benefits of cutting calories without actually eating less. How? By taking Resveratrol.
“If we’re right about this, it would mean you could have the benefit of restricting calories without having to feel hungry,” Sinclair said. “It’s the Holy Grail of aging research.”
This research, funded partly by the National Institute on Aging, has bee published in the Nature and Cell journal. Since then, Resveratrol has been more popular than ever.
