"Resveratrol fights chronic disease by increasing the quality of mitochondria."

The article “Resveratrol combats chronic diseases through enhancing mitochondrial quality” (published in Food Science and Human Wellness, 2024) summarizes this:

Main idea

Resveratrol (RSV), which is a natural polyphenol. (found in mulberry) plays an important role in improving the quality of mitochondria. This helps in preventing and relieving various chronic diseases such as heart disease, diabetes, and degenerative diseases associated with age. and muscular dystrophy (sarcopenia)

Important working mechanism

1. Stimulate biogenesis and mitophagy

Resveratrol promotes the formation and elimination of old mitochondria (mitophagy) through increasing the activity of SIRT1 and AMPK, which helps cells eliminate degenerated mitochondria and create new ones more efficiently.

2. Reduces oxidative stress and inflammation

With its antioxidant and NF‑κB inhibitory properties, resveratrol reduces chronic inflammation associated with mitochondrial degeneration.

3. Activate the route PKA/LKB1/AMPK

Research results from consuming a high-fat diet and receiving resveratrol found that PKA → LKB1 → AMPK was stimulated, resulting in improving mitochondrial function and reducing oxidative stress.

Results from the experiment

Resveratrol protects muscles from loss of both weight and strength. from stimulation mitochondrial and reduce accumulated fat in the body

in oocyte and embryo cells that undergo the process cryopreservation

Helps increase efficiency Mitochondrial recovery reduces damage by stimulating biogenesis and mitophagy via SIRT1/AMPK.

Application guidelines

Resveratrol Considered an option in the group of functional foods or food supplements. To enhance the quality of mitochondria in humans Especially in preventing chronic diseases that originate from cell degeneration.
