They talk about getting from red wine why not just eat red grapes?
Why doesnt wal mart or my local walgrens have it if it is so wonderful… I am a 53 yr old man and I want to feel young again… ha
Fresh grapes (and some other fruit) are a better source than wine.
The science seems to be that it activates a gene that seems involved in aging. There are several related genes. The issue with reservatrol as a way to do this is that it takes a LOT of reservatrol to activate the gene so there’s a lot of research going into other drugs that do the same thing more efficiently.

Note that there have been studies in mammals - from the article linked…
In 2004 my lab teamed up with Dr. Rafael de Cabo at the National Institutes of Health to see if resveratrol could improve the health and extend the lifespan of mice. When middle-aged mice were fed a low-fat diet, resveratrol delayed diseases of aging but did not extend lifespan. When fed a high-fat diet, mice on resveratrol got chubby but stayed healthy — they were less susceptible to diseases we associate with obesity, like type II diabetes. And with a sufficiently high resveratrol dose, they burned enough fat to stay lean. What’s more, the resveratrol mice on the high-fat diet ran twice as far on a treadmill as their unmedicated counterparts, and their remaining lifespan after treatment began increasing by an average of 25 percent compared with the high-fat controls. Notably, in both the obese and the lean mice on resveratrol, there was the clear physiological signature of calorie restriction.
