Hey, you may be onto something. Look at this:
) Resveratrol and ferritin regulation
We have recently discovered that the polyphenolic compound
resveratrol, found in red grape skins, affects transcriptional
regulation of the ferritin H gene. In this capacity, resveratrol
serves as an anti-oxidant by preventing excess iron from producing
oxidative stress via the Fenton reaction. My project is focused on
elucidating the pathway of resveratrol mediated ferritin H gene
regulation, from cellular signaling molecules to transcription
factors, to the specific areas of the ferritin H gene promoter.

I think I should go get some ... sounds like an easy experiment ...
