What is Quercetin?
Quercetin is a potent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory that has been shown to help prevent histamine release and the manufacture of allergy-related compounds. Quercetin, a cousin of Rutin, is a bioflavonoid that accompanies Vitamin C in nature.
What is Quercetin used for?
Research indicates Quercetin as being a strong anti-cancer agent. It acts to protect and preserve the structure of capillary blood vessels, promote circulation, stimulate bile production and lower cholesterol. It has a powerful anti-inflammatory effect and may be helpful to those suffering from swelling due to an injury and from allergic reactions. It is known to reduce viral activity.
What is Bromelain?
Bromelain is a protein-digesting enzyme derived from pineapples and enhances the absorption of Quercetin as well as being an anti-inflammatory. It may be helpful in reducing inflammation in sports injuries and helping prevent trauma before and after surgery. Bromelain, is a protease-containing enzyme derived from pineapples and is added to enhance the absorption of Quercetin.
Bromelain helps promote circulation and post-traumatic reabsorption of inflammatory by-products, thus allowing speedier recovery time from injuries. It reduces swelling and inflammation and helps reduce pain symptoms.

Quercetin Complex combines quercetin with Ester-C vitamin C, citrus bioflavonoids, rose hips, acerola and bromelain. Quercetin is the main ingredient for antioxidant and seasonal histamine support, while vitamin C and the extra bioflavonoids broaden the formula for immune and capillary support.
Bromelain adds an enzyme often used alongside quercetin in allergy-season formulas, and rose hips with acerola add extra plant-based antioxidant support. Quercetin has been studied for histamine and inflammatory pathways, which helps explain why this type of combination is so common in seasonal support products.
What does Quercetin Complex contain besides quercetin?
It includes Ester-C vitamin C, citrus bioflavonoids, rose hips, acerola and bromelain.
Why is vitamin C included with quercetin?
Vitamin C complements quercetin in immune and antioxidant support formulas, especially those used during allergy season.
What is bromelain doing in Quercetin Complex?
Bromelain is often paired with quercetin in seasonal support formulas and helps round out the blend.
