Brief Summary
The investigators hope to learn if resveratrol supplementation can be beneficial for the cardiovascular system. Seeing that resveratrol is rapidly metabolized, the investigators are interested in learning if a novel form of resveratrol, ResA, which is a mixture of resveratrol with amino acid, may have greater bioavailability and lead to greater improvement in vascular function, compared to standard resveratrol supplement.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (2)
Bioavailability of a novel formulation of resveratrol (ResA) compared to a standard resveratrol supplement
We will assess metabolites concentrations of resveratrol and ResA in plasma via HPLC method.
up to 2 hour after consumption
Change in vascular function in response to ResA compared to native resveratrol
We will assess changes in vascular function measured by peripheral arterial tonometry.
up to 2 hours after consumption
Secondary Outcomes (1)
Change in platelet reactivity in response to ResA intake
1 hour after consumption
Study Arms (3)
Resveratrol
EXPERIMENTALThe capsules will contain 90mg of resveratrol.
ResA
EXPERIMENTALResA is a product produced by using patented technology that physically binds resveratrol to arginine, creating a novel conjugate. The capsules will contain 90mg of resveratrol.
Placebo
PLACEBO COMPARATORThe placebo will be cellulose.
