I was under the impression that the mice were fed rather large doses of

resveratrol? What study are you referring to?

when mega-dose resveratrol was put to the test in the

first study involving warm-blooded animals, the animals fed mega-dose

resveratrol did not live as long as animals placed on a normal-calorie diet.

Many resveratrol pills sold online and in retail stores suggest mega-doses of

resveratrol (360 mg and 1565 mg) on their label, doses that shortened the lives

of lab animals. Lower doses, like those found in 3-5 glasses of red wine, or in

Longevinex® (100 mg resveratrol), appear to be more efficacious.
