Quercetin (or quercetine) is an important member of a class of naturally occurring plant pigments known as flavonoids. The distinctive red color of some wines, onions, and apples is due to the presence of quercetin. The latter two are particularly rich sources of the compound, as is black and green tea. It is also interesting that quercetin serves as a basic building block for many other members of the flavonoid family.

The main claims for quercetin’s health benefits are centered on its powerful antioxidant, anti-histamine, antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory properties.

Along with other antioxidants, quercetin fights the damaging free radical molecules that are a major cause of aging and degenerative disease in modern Western societies. Several population studies have linked a high intake of quercetin and other flavonoids to a reduced risk of certain disorders.

Other health benefits of quercetin may include:

• Blocking the formation of a particular blood sugar that contributes to the formation of cataracts.
• Relieving asthma, other respiratory diseases and allergies due to the combined anti-inflammatory and anti-histamine properties.
• Lowering the risk of heart disease by reducing oxidation of “bad” cholesterol.
• Helping to reduce the chronic inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract that occurs due to Crohn’s disease.
• Providing heart-protective and increased bone density benefits for women because of quercetin’s phytoestrogen nature.

Quercetin has been studied scientifically for over 30 years and during that time it has proven to be not only a highly effective natural supplement, but a safe one as well.
