Quercetin 500mg Total Defense 10cps, CosmoPharm

Quercetin (quercitina) is a flavonoid naturally present in food (onions, apples, grapes, berries, broccoli, citrus fruits, cherries, green tea, coffee, red wine, capers) and in Japanese Acacia (Sophora japonica), having strong properties anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and antihistamine.

The dried flowers and buds of Japanese Acacia (Sophora japonica) are used in China, Japan and Korea due to the high content of flavonoids (rutin, quercetin, isorhamnetin, genistein and kaempferol), tetraglycosides, isoflavones, triterpene glycosides, phospholipids, alkaloids, amino acids and polysaccharides .

The properties and benefits of quercetin

The properties and benefits of quercitin come from its ability to function as a powerful antioxidant. Antioxidants are compounds that neutralize free radicals, unstable molecules that can cause cell damage when their levels increase. Free radicals are at the root of many chronic diseases, including cancer, heart disease and diabetes.

Medical studies have confirmed that the flavonoid quercetin reduced markers of inflammation in human cells, including tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFα) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) molecules.

Quercetin (quercitin) helps to reduce the level of blood pressure through the relaxing effect on the blood vessels. A review of 9 studies of 580 people found that taking more than 500 mg of quercetin as a supplement daily reduced systolic and diastolic blood pressure by an average of 5.8 mm Hg and 2.6 mm Hg, respectively. .

Effects and benefits

Antioxidant. Anti-inflammatory. Anti-ageing.

• Quercetin has strong antioxidant protection by reducing free radicals;
• It contributes to the protection of vascular endothelial cells against the action of free radicals and pro-inflammatory substances;
• Reduces inflammation by inhibiting the production of cytokines from T-helper cells;
• It modulates the action of enzymes involved in inflammatory responses in the retina, pancreas, prostate, bone joints, brain;
• It strengthens the immune system by decreasing pro-inflammatory cytokines, creating leukotrienes and suppressing the production of interleukin IL-4;
• Quercitin helps to maintain the normal level of the aldose-reductase enzyme;
• Suppresses the growth of cancer cells in the liver, lungs, breast, bladder, blood, colon, lymphoid and prostate;
• It helps to rejuvenate or eliminate aged cells and to reduce the markers of aging.

It contributes to the health of the immune system and the health of the respiratory system.

• Exercises anti-pathogenic activities against a wide variety of viruses and bacteria;
• Quercetin reduces the severity of respiratory diseases;
• Shortens the convalescence period in upper respiratory tract diseases;
• Reduces the markers of lung inflammation and the progression of lung diseases; Limits the risk of developing lung cancer.
• Quercetin reduces allergic reactions (bronchial asthma, rhinitis);
• It inhibits the manifestations characteristic of allergic reactions: stuffy nose, watery eyes, sneezing, difficult breathing, itching, reddening of the skin, hives, edema, food intolerances, pollen, dust, animal hair, chemical products, etc.;
• It helps to reduce the release of substances such as histamine (TH2, leukotrienes, prostaglandins at the vascular, gastrointestinal, bronchial, cutaneous, cerebral, ocular level);

The health of the cardiovascular system.

• Maintains blood pressure within normal limits;
• Quercetin lowers cholesterol;
• It helps to reduce the fragility of capillaries;
• It helps to reduce complications associated with increased blood glucose levels;
• Supports stabilization of blood pressure;
• It contributes to the increase of HDL-cholesterol, the reduction of LDL-cholesterol;
• Reduces cholesterol deposition on blood vessels / platelet aggregation;
• It reduces the blood sugar level and protects against the complications of diabetes.

Brain. Chronic disorders.

• It crosses the brain barrier, limiting the proliferation of U251 cells and inducing apoptosis;
• Quercitin increases the ability to adapt to stress;
• Contributes to maintaining the healthy level of serotonin and dopamine in the brain;
• It helps to reduce the excessive release of cortisol;
• Blocks inflammatory molecules in the brain responsible for neuronal degeneration;
• It protects against degenerative brain disorders (Alzheimer's and dementia), improving brain function.

Bones, joints, stomach.

• Quercetin improves the health of the bone system;
• Reduces joint stiffness, pain after activity and the inflammatory marker TNF-alpha;
• It helps to reduce the excessive secretion of gastric acid;
• It stops the increase of inflammation and the permeability of the intestinal mucosa, strengthening the intestinal barrier;
• It improves the metabolic profile in obese people by reducing a marker of obesity (resistin), as well as testosterone and LH;
• Reduces weight gain caused by: a high-fat diet, improved insulin sensitivity and glucose tolerance.
