1000 Bottles a Day is All it Takes

To gain the same advantage from wine that rats got from the active, anti-fat benefits, you'd only have to down about 1000 bottles every day.

The mice were fed a hefty dose of resveratrol, 24 milligrams per kilogram of body weight. Red wine has about 1.5 to 3 milligrams of resveratrol per liter, so a 150-lb person would need to drink 750 to 1,500 bottles of red wine a day to get such a dose.
