Quercetin is a flavoid antioxidant commonly found in apples, onions, and citrus fruits. Its use has been widely established, particularly in Europe, for the treatment of various conditions such as allergy symptoms, diabetic complications, and cardiovascular problems, thanks to its anti-inflammatory effects.
Although quercetin is primarily used for people with allergy symptoms (itchy eyes and throat, sneezing, and nasal congestion), this product also supports cardiovascular health through its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects. It reduces the oxidation of low-density lipoprotein (LDL), promotes healthy blood pressure and blood clotting, increases nitric oxide (NO) production, and reduces the risk of metabolic syndrome. Quercetin can relieve headaches and other types of pain because it inhibits the production of inflammatory signaling molecules through a mechanism similar to that of aspirin. Quercetin also inhibits the release of histamine from certain immune cells, hence its widespread use among people with constant allergies (such as dust) and seasonal allergies (such as hay fever).
Quercetin can provide a boost to anyone at risk for or suffering from cardiovascular disease, or those suffering from allergies or headaches. AOR's Quercetin is also unique because it does not contain citrus, unlike most quercetin products on the market.
AOR Quercetin is sourced from non-citrus sources. AOR offers two sizes of this formula to take full advantage of the health benefits of this powerful flavonoid-based product.
