Resveratrol in hyperlipidemia and heart disease:

For further information, interactions, and adverse reactions of resveratrol: See resveratrol in Preventive Health Advisor. Resveratrol has been promoted as an inhibitor of platelet activation and anti-inflammatory believed to have potential benefits for heart health in in-vitro and in animal studies. This agent requires more research for confirmation in humans, and should be avoided until further research has been completed. Paradoxically, resveratrol promoted atherosclerosis in hypercholesterolemic rabbits compared to a control group (128). Resveratrol-treated rabbits had an increase in atherosclerotic lesions (p<0.002), which suggested that resveratrol results in atherosclerotic development, rather than protecting against it. (128)
