Conclusions Resveratrol supplementation significantly increased FMD among patients with MetS and related disorders , but did not affect SBP and DBP .
Introduction There are current trials investigating the effect of resveratrol supplementation on endothelial function and blood pressures among patients with metabolic syndrome ( MetS ) ; however , the findings are controversial .
Aim This systematic review and meta- analysis of r and omized controlled trials ( RCTs ) were carried out to summarize the effects of resveratrol supplementation on endothelial activation and blood pressures among patients with MetS and related disorders .
Antihyperglycemic Effects of Short Term Resveratrol Supplementation in Type 2 Diabetic Patients
The objective of this study was to examine the effectiveness of resveratrol in lowering blood glucose in the presence of st and ard antidiabetic treatment in patients with type 2 diabetes , in a r and omized placebo-controlled double-blinded parallel clinical trial . A total of 66 subjects with type 2 diabetes were enrolled in this study and r and omly assigned to intervention group which was supplemented with resveratrol at a dose 1 g/day for 45 days and control group which received placebo tablets .  Body weight , blood pressure , fasting blood glucose , haemoglobin A1c , insulin , homeostatic assessment s for insulin resistance , triglycerides , total cholesterol , low density lipoprotein , high density lipoprotein , and markers of liver and kidney damage were measured at baseline and after 45 days of resveratrol or placebo supplementation . Resveratrol treatment significantly decreased systolic blood pressure , fasting blood glucose , haemoglobin A1c , insulin , and insulin resistance , while HDL was significantly increased , when compared to their baseline levels . On the other h and , the placebo group had slightly increased fasting glucose and LDL when compared to their baseline levels . Liver and kidney function markers were unchanged in the intervention group . Overall , this study showed that resveratrol supplementation exerted strong antidiabetic effects in patients with type 2 diabetes
