Well, the French have the answer. reservatrol was first talked about in the media when researchers observed that French people generally do not suffer from heart problems, despite many French people having high-fat diets. But along with having high-fat diets they also drink a lot of red wine (containing reservatrol), by coincidence they had found a way to protect their heart. They also found, that reservatrol was also the reason that they never gained much weight, despite having high-fat diets.
Scientists have carried out studies on rats, where the rats where given reservatrol supplements, the study found that these rats gained less weight. This was found to be due to reservatrol preventing the production of cytokines. Cytokines are substances that are related to obesity related diseases, such as diabetes and clogged arteries.
