A Potential Fat-Burner by the Glass


Posted by Heather J.

A compound in red wine may offset the effects of a high-calorie, high-fat diet, according to a recent Harvard Medical School and National Institute on Aging study that followed a group of mice. Resveratrol, a molecule also found in grapes and nuts, appeared to increase the mice's survival and insulin sensitivity (important for efficient processing of glucose into energy). Authors note that resveratrol ?can safely reduce many of the negative consequences of excess caloric intake, with an overall improvement in health and survival.? However, to take in the equivalent of resveratrol given to the mice, one would have to drink on average 750 bottles of red wine a day. Yikes!
