Resveratrol
What’s with the French paradox? They have more saturated fat in their diet but they’re leaner/healthier than Americans (in general). Could it be the wine that they imbibe regularly? I am not a regular wine drinker myself but one of the benefits of drinking wine (esp. Pinot Noir) is that it’s a great source of resveratrol. Studies show that resveratrol duplicates the effects of calorie restriction and activates a longevity enzyme without dieting. It’s an antioxidant, a detoxifier, speeds a cellular repair and supports a healthy heart.
