Article Synopsis
  • Alzheimer's disease affects around 6.5 million people aged 65+ in the U.S. and resveratrol may help combat it due to its biological properties.
  • The research focused on developing an intranasal formulation of resveratrol using surfactant-based systems to improve its solubility, using ingredients like oleic acid and CETETH-20.
  • Tests showed that this formulation effectively improved learning and memory in animals and reduced neuroinflammation, making it a promising treatment option for Alzheimer's.
