Description | Quercetin, a flavonoid found abundantly in fruits, vegetables, and herbs, is known for its diverse biological effects. It exhibits potent anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, anticarcinogenic, and antiviral properties, supporting immune function and liver health. Found in foods like apples, berries, onions, and tea, quercetin also aids in reducing allergic responses, improving insulin sensitivity, and lowering blood sugar levels. Studies highlight quercetin's ability to stabilize mast cells and inhibit the release of histamine, prostaglandins, and leukotrienes, making it effective in managing allergies and inflammation better than pharmaceutical alternatives like cromolyn. Additionally, research suggests quercetin's role in reducing symptoms of chronic prostatitis and inflammatory conditions like arthritis by modulating cytokine production and suppressing inflammatory agents. Furthermore, quercetin supports liver function by mitigating alcohol-induced fatty liver, reducing liver damage, and enhancing antioxidant defenses against oxidative stress. Its immune-modulating effects have been observed in athletes and animal models of autoimmunity, demonstrating its potential in reducing respiratory tract infections and supporting overall immune health. Nutritional Frontiers' Quercetin dihydrate supplement provides 250 mg per capsule, typically recommended at 1 capsule twice daily, under healthcare practitioner guidance. |
