Description
Quercetin belongs class of water-soluble plant pigments called bioflavonoids that cannot be produced in the human body and is one of the most bioactive flavonoids. It may provide support for cellular, immune, and cardio-metabolic health.
The flavonoid Quercetin is considered a phytoestrogen which inhibits the enzymes that release histamines. Histamines are the compounds released during injuries or allergies that cause fluid retention. When one has allergic reactions, the result of excess histamines can make one feel miserable with symptoms like itchy eyes, sore throat, runny nose or drowsiness. Quercetin may help control the levels of histamines and support a more proper immune response. Quercetin is also an active antioxidant, protecting lipids from oxidation, and supporting the cardiovascular system.
