5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The aim of this study is to investigate potential metabolic effects of resveratrol in men with metabolic syndrome(otherwise healthy). The investigators hypothesize that resveratrol has an anti-inflammatory effect, and will increase insulin sensitivity, change the fat- and sugar-metabolism, and down-regulate bone-turnover.
Detailed Description
The study will be done in a collaboration between two PhD students, who focus on effects in adipose- and muscle- tissue, and bone tissue respectively. The investigators will look at changes in inflammation-markers biochemical markers of fat- and sugar-metabolism gene-expression in fat- and muscle-tissue body composition (DXA (whole body) and MR spectroscopy) biochemical markers of bone-metabolism Bone Mineral Density (DXA scans) bone structure (QCT) gene-expression and cytokines in bone marrow Some of the volunteers will have their insulin sensitivity measured.
