Quercetin is a bioflavonoid or a chemical compound usually found in the rinds of citrus fruits that work by inhibiting the release of histamine. Histamine is the chemical that when released by cells, causes the different symptoms of allergy. Apart from its anti-histamine effects, Quercetin also possesses powerful anti-oxidant properties. It actively fights free radicals, the by-products of oxidative stress which damages the DNA. DNA damage leads to premature ageing, heart diseases, and cancer. According to studies, Quercetin also increases the flexibility and resistance of blood vessels for better circulation. This dietary supplement contains rutin, an important sugar that improves the action of Vitamin C in the body. In this unique formula, Quercetin is fortified with Bromelain for enhanced immuno-modulating effects. Bromelain is a combination of enzymes naturally found in the stems and juices of pineapples. Bromelain helps reinforce the anti-inflammatory properties of Quercetin being an anti-inflammatory agent on its own.
