The science behind it
Resveratrol (3,5,4'-trihydroxystilbene) is a stilbene made by plants in response to stress, such as fungal attack or UV exposure. It exists in trans and cis forms, and trans-resveratrol is the more active and stable form.
In laboratory research, resveratrol activates sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) and AMPK, enzymes involved in cellular energy sensing, and it neutralises free radicals. It also supports nitric oxide production, which relaxes blood vessels, and influences inflammatory pathways like NF-kB.
Bioavailability challenge. Resveratrol is absorbed well from the gut, but the liver and intestinal lining rapidly convert it to sulphate and glucuronide conjugates, so little free resveratrol circulates. Its half-life is short at about 1 to 3 hours.
Boosting absorption. Taking resveratrol with a meal containing fat can improve uptake. Micronised and liposomal forms are marketed to improve it, and combining it with piperine from black pepper has been studied.
Evidence. Many findings come from cell and animal research. Human studies are smaller and give mixed results, so the true effects in people are still being clarified (Examine.com). The amount in a glass of red wine is only a small fraction of supplement doses.
