The Life Extension article “Resveratrol could aid in secondary stroke prevention” summarizes research that looked at 228 stroke patients who had had a stroke within the past 12 months. By taking Resveratrol continuously for 1 year in conjunction with standard treatment. and compared with the group that did not receive additional Resveratrol.
