I have seen news stories which have stated that you’d have to take fistfuls of resveratrol capsules to equal what was given to lab animals in experiments. Is this true?
It is true that lab animals were given high doses of resveratrol in many of the studies. Researchers typically mega dose animals to try to look for toxicity and any side effects. In lab experiments, small amounts of resveratrol have increased survival rates dramatically and mega doses have not produced greater longevity.
