Quercetin


Quercetin is a powerful antioxidant. It is also a natural anti-histamine, and anti-inflammatory. Research shows that quercetin may help to prevent cancer, especially prostate cancer.

Quercetin is a powerful antioxidant. Many flavonoids, including quercetin, can act as aromatase inhibitors.

Quercetin, as a flavonoid, has been shown in lab studies to have blunt the effects of IgE mediated reactions and perhaps have anti histamine effects.

Quercetin, a naturally occurring, powerful antioxidant found in red grapes, red wine, red apples, green tea and broccoli, appears to be one of the first plant compound proven in a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trial to reduce susceptibility to viral illnesses.

Why Use It: Quercetin’s anti-histamine action may help to relieve allergic symptoms and asthma symptoms. The anti-inflammatory properties may help to reduce pain from disorders such as arthritis. Men who are concerned about prostate problems would also benefit from quercetin. Quercetin may also help reduce symptoms like fatigue, depression and anxiety.

I personally take this as well as my sons. We take the liquid version of Quercetin, two dropper’s full under the tongue so that it immidately goes into the blood stream and has the quickest effect.

This has been great for seasonal allergies.

I use the brand Source Natural. They also have a supplement that is in the pill form as well.
