In early 2000, Dr. Agnes Rimando discovered the presence of pterostilbene (trans-3,5-dimethoxy-4'-hydroxystilbene), natural dimethylated analogue of resveratrol in Vaccinium berries.  Since then substantial studies demonstrate that pterostilbene have diverse pharmacological activities for the prevention and treatment of diseases including inflammation, cancer, diabetes and dyslipidemia. Recent progress on health promoting properties of pterostilbene will be discussed.
