research

a 2011 systematic review of existing resveratrol research demonstrated there not enough evidence demonstrate effect on longevity or human diseases, nor there recommendations intake beyond amount obtained through dietary sources, estimated being less 4 mg/day. of research showing positive effects has been done on animals, insufficient clinical research on humans. resveratrol research in animals , humans remains active.

cancer

as of 2014, results of studies on laboratory animals or human clinical trials concerning effects of resveratrol on cancer inconsistent, if massive doses of resveratrol used.

neurological studies

a preliminary, one-year clinical trial of subjects alzheimer s disease showed consuming 2 grams of resveratrol daily well-tolerated , reduced disease biomarkers in cerebrospinal fluid , blood, although other biomarkers , progressive dementia unaffected. other preliminary human studies indicated short-term ingestion of resveratrol increased cerebral blood flow in normal subjects , in people diabetes. resveratrol under study potential limit secondary damage after ischemic stroke or acute brain trauma.

cardiovascular studies

although moderate drinking of red wine associated reduced risk of heart disease, association known french paradox , there little evidence resveratrol in red wine may have role in possible effect.

antidiabetic studies

animal studies being conducted discern potential metabolic , antidiabetic effects of resveratrol. in vitro, resveratrol shown act agonist of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma, nuclear receptor under pharmacological research potential treatment type 2 diabetes. although 1 systematic review , meta-analysis noted resveratrol leading candidate compound serving adjunct pharmacotherapy type 2 diabetes, there little evidence use possible treatment diabetes.

skin

despite considerable in vitro , animal research, there no evidence resveratrol taken orally or topically has effect on human skin. preliminary studies have been conducted on resveratrol understand potential therapy melanoma.
