Abstract The search for natural compounds with beneficial activity for health has been one of the great challenges since men are aware of their survival. Many elixirs and ointments have been tested as the possible treatment or remedy for diseases or even death. In traditional medicine, compounds with biological activities have been used in humans. Among them, resveratrol (RSV) is, currently, one of the most studied natural compounds by modern science. To study this polyphenol we have a series of very useful tools that allow us to investigate from molecular targets, to signaling pathways in which it is involved, as well as effects on pathologies and even health and longevity. In this chapter we are willing to describe some of the most prominent effects of RSV on health. To this end, we describe its properties on several models used in basic research, as well as in humans.
