Resveratrol (3,5,4′-trihydroxystilbene) is a naturally occurring stilbenoid polyphenol found in the skin of red grapes, Japanese knotweed (Polygonum cuspidatum), and various berries. It has attracted significant research interest for its antioxidant properties, cardiovascular protective effects, and role in modulating inflammatory pathways. Resveratrol exists in trans and cis isomeric forms, with trans-resveratrol being the biologically relevant and commercially traded form.
