Resveratrol May Prove Beneficial for Women’s Health

Menopause is a natural part of aging in women between the ages of 45 and 55. It is characterized by a drop in estrogen levels, with symptoms that include hot flashes, fatigue, and weight gain, and health risks that include osteoporosis (1). In an effort to counter menopause symptoms, many women try hormone replacement therapy. But studies in 2002 (2) and 2004 (3) found that hormone replacement therapy increases risks for both cancer and deep vein thrombosis.
