"Resveratrol is a stilbenoid, commonly found in grapes and in the roots of the Japanese Knotweed during stress and bacterial or fungial infection. In mouse and rat experiments, resveratrol has been shown to play a role in telomere lengthening, telomerase activity enhancement, blood sugar-lowering, inhibition of platelet aggregation, promotion of vasodilation by enhancing the production of NO and have anti-inflammatory properties."
