Harvard Researchers from ‘Harvard Medical School and the National Institute on Aging‘ has found out that small molecule resveratrol tested on obese mice, have reversed ‘nearly all’ of the gene expression patterns such as diabetes, heart disease, and other diseases related to obesity in the tested mice.
Mice are used as the researchers says “Mice are much closer evolutionarily to humans than any previous model organism treated by this molecule”.
The six month trial saw resveratrol preventing the effects of high calorie diet in mice.
Resveratrol can be found in red wines and several plants. Resveratrol is said to have anti-aging properties.
