Polyphenols, the great allies against cancer

Although there is evidence and studies about the anticancer effect of polyphenols; such as catechin and quercetin; one of the most widely studied is resveratrol, a natural polyphenol from wine. 

It is being researched the way in which resveratrol affects a variety of cancer stages, from initiation and promotion to progression, by affecting the diverse signal-transduction pathways, that control cell growth and division, inflammation, and so on. Nowadays, there are studies of using resveratrol, as an alternative for chemotherapy.
