Resveratrol, a compound found in grapes and red wine, reduces production of certain chemicals in the body called cytokines -- interleukins 6 and 8 -- that are linked to the development of obesity-related disorders, such as diabetes and coronary artery disease according to a cell-based study from the University of Ulm in Ulm, Germany that was presented at The Endocrine Society's 90th Annual Meeting in San Francisco, California, USA on June 17th, 2008.
