Allergy Relief with Quercetin

3/31/2015

0 Comments

 
Quercetin is a flavonol (the yellow pigment present in plants) found in many fruits, vegetables, leaves and grains. It can be used as an ingredient in supplements, beverages, or foods. I occasionally get hives and quercetin really helps to reduce the pain and itch, letting me sleep better and function throughout the day. It doesn’t cause drowsiness and helps with oxidative stress, plus it has many other health benefits including supporting respiratory and cardiovascular health. Allergies are a sign of something bigger that I will explore further in my next post, but quercetin is a healthy way to deal with the uncomfortable symptoms.

Natural Factors Bioactive Quercetin EMIQ (enzymatically modified isoquercitrin) is a highly bioavailable form of quercetin – a flavonoid that exerts significant anti-allergy effects.

Main benefits:
  • Alleviates allergy symptoms
  • Uniquely prepared quercetin using natural enzyme process
  • Highly bioavailale, 40 times greater absorption than regular quercetin
  • Offers cardioprotective properties
  • Provides 50 mg of vitamin C for additional antioxidant support
  • Suitable for vegetarians and vegans

Side effects of antihistamines include:
  • Dry mouth
  • Drowsiness
  • Dizziness
  • Nausea and vomiting
  • Restlessness or moodiness (in some children)
  • Trouble urinating or inability to urinate
  • Blurred vision
  • Confusion
  • Chronic dry eyes
  • Dry nose
  • Dry skin
