Quercetin has many health and physically benefiting properties including:
1. Quercetin helps fight inflammation and decrease cellular damage

Quercetin is also one of the best nutrients for anyone who exercises, who has joint pain and or is conce
ed about stressing their joints and muscles from regular exercise and everyday activities. This can include routine exercise such as biking, running or walking, or gardening, playing sports or activities with children and family. In studies, Quercetin helps muscles and joints recover faster from inflammation from any type of exercise or activity. Alleviating inflammation, pain and swelling also helps a person get better sleep which supports faster muscle recovery and helps a person to function much better during the day.

Important recent research has shown that Quercetin may also have important anti-cancer and cancer preventive benefits and may help reduce the risk for breast and prostate cancer, intestinal and colon cancer and other types of cancer.

Quercetin also helps improve better blood circulation by helping blood vessels to dilate (expand for better blood flow) and helps the body produce more nitrous oxide which enables better dilation. Increasing your Quercetin intake may help you prevent cardiovascular disease. Quercetin is also associated with less blood platelet aggregation, thus helping blood to flow better with less chance of a blood clot forming.

Quercetin has few if any side effects and a report from the Sloan Kettering Cancer Institute helped reinforce this by saying: “No adverse effects have been reported with single oral doses up to 4 grams.”

To help get the many Anti-aging, health, antioxidant, and better exercise endurance and recovery advantages of Quercetin, increase your use of Quercetin rich foods as mentioned above, especially apples and onions.
