Resveratrol and Female Fertility: A Systematic Review
International journal of molecular sciences (2024) · Systematic review
The current literature, though limited, suggests that resveratrol may play a role in female infertility.
Based on heart failure meta-analysis (n=1573) showing mortality reduction. Effectiveness conservative due to single primary study (n=420). Take with food to reduce GI upset. Ubiquinol forms may have better absorption.
Based on meta-analysis showing TNF-α reduction in young and obese subjects. Effect sizes were modest and heterogeneity was high (I2=60-74%). Higher doses associated with increased GI upset risk.
