The team said their study was the first to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of resveratrol as a postoperative treatment Resveratrol is an important substance in red wine, which has antioxidant effect At present, scientists have done a lot of research on resveratrol, and found that it can inhibit lung cancer cells and prevent limb defects caused by diabetes.
