Resveratrol Helps Maintain Healthy Lipid Levels in Women

January 2006

Resveratrol and other constituents of grapes can help maintain healthy lipid levels in both premenopausal and postmenopausal women, according to a study conducted at the University of Connecticut. Twenty-four premenopausal women participated in the study. They were given a freeze-dried grape powder rich in resveratrol, flavonoids and anthocyanins for four weeks or a placebo. Women consuming the grape powder recorded healthier lipid levels than those on placebo. The powder also encouraged healthy oxidative stress levels in the body.
