In this study, South Korean researchers compared the effects of piceatannol (PIC) and resveratrol (RSV) on parameters that affect inflammation, oxidative stress and sirtuins (Sirt). Their findings were published in the Journal of Medicinal Food.
Based on these findings, the researchers concluded that PIC is superior to RSV in terms of regulating Sirt and its downstream targets, while RSV is superior to PIC in terms of suppressing pro-inflammatory markers and increasing antioxidant levels.
