Why is it important?

Treatments for Alzheimer's disease are unsatisfactory, and better treatments are needed.

Perspectives

This is the longest, largest highest dose trial of resveratrol completed to date in man. We found resveratrol to be save in high doses, and demonstrated evidence of efficacy. The findings warrant a follow-on Phase 3 study to test efficacy in a larger cohort.
