Another win for resveratro­l

It helps combat the fatigue, weight gain and joint pain of fatty liver, according to an animal study in the journal Pharmaceut­ical Biology. In the study, mice with fatty liver given resveratro­l daily had 86 percent lower levels of enzymes linked to liver damage after 4 weeks. The authors say resveratro­l’s antioxidan­t compounds mop up the oxidative stress linked to liver damage, and they expect humans would see the same benefits.
