Resveratrol is a protective compound produced by grapevines and other plants in response to environmental stresses. Human cell culture studies have demonstrated that resveratrol has potent antioxidant activity, as well as the ability to inhibit platelet aggregation.

Yes, it has been proven to have beneficial health effects, such as anti-cancer, antiviral, neuroprotective, anti-aging, and anti-inflammatory, but all of these studies are "in-vitro" (test tube) or in yeast, worms, fruit flies, fish, mice, and rats. I cannot seem to find any studies in humans. If anyone can find such a study of Resveratrol in humans, please post it!

Resveratrol supplements, originally sourced from ground dried grape skins and seeds (sometimes from residual byproducts of winemaking), are now primarily derived from the cheaper, more concentrated Japanese knotweed which contains up to 187 mg/kg in the dried root. If you would rather eat/drink your Resveratrol, the compound can be found in grapes, wine (more in red than white, due to the fact that red wine is fermented with the grape skins, while white wine is fermented after the skins have been removed), peanuts, cranberries and blueberries.

That may be an interesting finding because we still do not have all the medicines in cardiovascular areas.
