[b]Intervention:
[/b]
Resveratrol (1,500 mg p.o.) or placebo were administered daily.

Main Outcome Measure:

Primary outcome was the change in the serum total T. (testosterone) 

Results:

Resveratrol treatment led to a significant decrease of total T by 23.1%



apparently , the resveratrol in red wine helps reduce overall Testosterone.. so have  glass of red wine !

I knew there was a good reason for me to enjoy red wine!
Thanks Tanya!
I wonder which reds are better/more potent for you??

I'm guessing the reddest, most tannic wines.

There are a lot of fun, dark red blends available these days - to drink to one's health!

Although I assume there might be just a tad of NY bias (Cornell is in Ithaca, NY), this research claims to show that among a US and worldwide sampling of wines, wines from NY State tended to have higher levels of resveratrol overall.

Pinot Noir in particular was determined to be the type with the highest amounts of resveratrol overall.

Oh Goodness! I`v been taking the stuff for years for the anti-aging aspect, I had no idea it messed with T at all! that could explain a few things! LOL

I`v had a look and there`s quite a few places that list it as Trans-Resveratrol, I`m guessing that`s the sort we need then!? (just Kidding....... or am I?) LOL xx

Trans-Resveratrol! lol Guess they can't be accused of hiding possible T lowering side effects with TRANS right in the name/on the label.
