Resveratrol

Resveratrol is a naturally occurring chemical found in red wine and other plant products and is sometimes sold as a dietary supplement. Recently, a study funded by the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute looked at how resveratrol works at the cellular level, indentifying how it may provide its health benefits.

People who are using or are considering using natural products, including resveratrol, should discuss this decision with their health care provider.
