A study published in the journal BMC Complementary and Alternative Medicine looked at the effect of resveratrol and exercise on age-related bone fractures in mice. The study was carried out by researchers at Midwestern University and Auburn University.
In sum, the findings suggested that that resveratrol and exercise can enhance bone strength and resistance to fracture, indicating their potential in Alzheimer’s disease-related fracture risk.
