The Wallstreet Journal featured a study of Resveratrol in mice. The results are amazing. You may dislike the fact that they abuse animals for their studies, but Resveratrol is after all a healthy natural compound and won’t do much harm.
This is exactly what many people (especially athletes) reported about Resveratrol. It can help you to improve your endurance and energy levels.
Many sites report that there haven’t been any clinical trials on humans. To be exact there have been clinical resveratrol trials on humans, birds, dogs, cats, plants and other animals.
According to the NYTimes, GlaxoSmith Kline has bought the company “sirtris” that discovered resveratrol last year for about $720 million. The company “sirtris” was founded shortly after Dr. Sinclair disovered the compound. Chief Executive is Cr. Christoph Westphal.
In one clinical study Dr. James Smoliga (Marywood University) gave 90 volunteers a polyphenol blend of 400mg Resveratrol dosage, 400mg Red Wine Grape extract, and 100 mg Quercetin. Th research showed that the volunteersexperiences increased endurance, strength and verbal memory. (Source)
If you want to help to bring the clinical studies on resveratrol to the next step, you can volunteer to be part of a clinical trial. The government page (clinicaltrials.gov) lists various clinical trials on their site. They are researching:
Resveratrol in Healthy Adult Participants (currently active)
Resveratrol for Patients With Colon Cancer (recruiting)
Resveratrol in Preventing Cancer in Healthy Participants (completed)
Resveratrol in Treating Patients With Colorectal Cancer That Can Be Removed By Surgery (recruiting)
Phase I Biomarker Study of Dietary Grape-Derived Low Dose Resveratrol for Colon Cancer Prevention (currently active)
