No fewer than nine wine estates in the Rioja region in Spain are conducting research into resvratrol. The objective is to increase the content of this substance in wine ten-fold, and thus to offer extremely healthy wines for sale.

Such important information should not be downplayed by the mass media. Yet, that is exactly what just transpired. Instead, they reported that resveratrol improved health, but not longevity, in aging mice on a standard diet. In other words, they chose not to report the most important outcome from the study.
