Recently, Dr. Nancy Snyderman on the Today Show warned women to drink 3 glasses of wine per week or less because of the side effects to excessive alcohol. Apparently women can not metabolize alcohol like men can, and thus excessive alcohol is more damaging to women.
To get the full benefits of resveratrol, and the other compounds in wine, look for a resveratrol supplement that contains compounds like OPC's, green tea and Pycnogenol. But don't stop there, we're talking antioxidants so make sure you find one whose servings are individually sealed like in foil packets, or blister paks.
You wouldn't want your antioxidants to diffuse the free radicals in the before getting to your digestive system. You might as well be consuming air.
