Description
Phytosome® Quercetin
Quercetin, a natural flavonoid essential for health, is present in large quantities in the pigments of fruits, vegetables (especially the most colorful) and nuts, hazelnuts and almonds. Numerous studies reveal its effectiveness in several areas. It protects in particular against the effects of free radicals and oxidation.
It is proposed in a bioavailable form and without side effects: the phytosome of quercetin extracted from the flower buds of Sophora japonica. In this food supplement, it is associated with coenzyme Q10, another antioxidant that completes and reinforces its effects.
Flavonoids, a large family
These plant pigments give fruits and vegetables their color, fight the presence of bacteria, viruses, molds, and also protect them from oxidation and aggressive sunlight. The plants richest in flavonoids are green tea, coffee, cocoa, grapes, garlic, red onions, apple skins, pomegranates, black currants and blueberries.
Many works showed the properties of flavonoids. Among the more than four thousand flavonoids which exist in nature, the quercetin is the most consumed by the man and the most necessary for its wellbeing.
Quercetin, the queen of flavonoids
In its natural state, quercetin has a strong bitter taste. However, bitterness has the ability to facilitate digestion. Several clinical studies have also demonstrated its powerful protective properties.
Coenzyme Q10 (ubiquinone)
This natural molecule, omnipresent in the body, acts like a vitamin because its chemical structure is close to that of vitamin K. It stimulates the production of energy in the cells. Its antioxidant action protects the body against free radicals.
- It fights against oxidative stress
- It activates energy production in the mitochondria
The quercetin/coenzyme Q10 interaction
Various studies show that taking quercetin and coenzyme Q10 (ubiquinone) together acts as a powerful antioxidant that plays an important role in vitality and well-being.
