Springhill Group / Drinking red wine could benefit seniors

A component of red wine has been found to improve mobility f or older people, according to a new study.

Researchers from a university in Pittsburgh have specified resveratrol, a natural-occurring compound that is also pres ent in red wine, could aid in improving mobility of older pe ople and subsequently prevent falls.

The group of researchers fed old and young lab mice a diet that includes resveratrol for a period of 8 weeks while tes ting their ability to walk around a balance beam. They then took note of the number of times each mouse made a misstep. Initially, the older mice found it difficult to traverse the obstacle but on the 4th week, they made significantly fewer missteps and seemed to perform as well as the young ones.
