Since their return from military service in the 1990-1991 Gulf War, many Veterans have been affected by debilitating symptoms that are not easily explained. A leading hypothesis states that the combination of exposure to toxic chemicals and environmental stressors are responsible for a cluster of debilitating symptoms known as Gulf War Illness (GWI). Research has found that over-the-counter antioxidant supplements such as resveratrol may reverse the damage that causes these debilitating symptoms. Resveratrol is a nutrient found abundantly in the skin of red grapes that is known to have robust antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. The investigators predict that resveratrol treatment will improve memory issues, difficulties with thinking and mood problems in Veterans with GWI and that resveratrol will do so with minimal risk.
