Bees decrease food intake, live longer when given compound found in red wine
Posted: September 23, 2012


The idea that drinking red wine may provide health benefits – or
possibly even extend your life – is an appealing thought for many
people. Now, there may be added attraction. Researchers have found
that when given resveratrol, a compound found in red wine, bees
consume less food.

ASU researchers have confirmed that not only does resveratrol, a
compound found in red wine, extend the lifespan of honey bees by 33 to
38 percent, it also changes the decisions that bees make about food by
triggering a “moderation effect” when they eat.
