What is Quercetin?
Quercetin is a flavonoid, a class of antioxidant commonly found in fruits. Its use has been widely established particularly in Europe, for the treatment of a variety of ailments. Quercetin decreases the formation and activity of inflammation mediators in a manner that is similar to that of aspirin. An important function considering these inflammatory intracellular messengers are what cause the body's pain receptors to become more sensitive.
Quercetin also inhibits the release of histamine by stabilizing the cellular membranes of neutraphils, which are a type of immune cell. Quercetin is therefore widely used by those who suffer from constant allergies (such as dust) and seasonal allergies (such as hay fever).
In a study investigating the risk factors for chronic diseases in elderly men, it was revealed that high intakes of quercetin and other flavonoids predicted lower mortality rates and incidences of
heart attack. Reseachers in the Netherlands believe it is possible that quercetin and other flavonoids, reduce the risk of heart disease by lowering the formation of plaque-building substances, specifically oxidized low density lipoprotein (LDL).
Main Applications
As reported by literature:
Cardiovascular system.
Circulation.
Anti-carcinogenic.
Analgesic properties.
Antioxidant.
Hyperglycemia.
Allergies.
An Antioxidant Flavonoid
Antioxidants
stop oxidants (free radicals, which disrupt the integrity of other molecules by stripping their electrons) from attacking nearby molecules, such as mitochondria, membranes, and DNA. There are many classes of dietary
Antioxidants, and flavonoids are one of them. Flavonoids have many phenols linked to their antioxidants.
Common sources of flavonoids are vegetables, fruits, and beverages such as wine and teas. Of the many flavonoid powerhouses, Quercetin is a major player. Quercetin is the most widely consumed flavonoid in the diet. Quercetin has been widely used by Russians and Europeans to treat a variety of ailments.
Mechanism of Action
Pain and Inflammation
Quercetin decreases the production of the inflammatory mediators by inhibiting key
enzymes
called cyclooxygenases and lipoxygenase, which form proinflammatory eicosanoids (local microhormones) such as PGE2 and PGE2 alpha. The mechanism is similar to that of aspirin and indomethacin. Mediators such as histamine, bradykinin and PGE2 all potentiate pain through sensitization of afferent pain endings (the nerves that transmit impulses to the CNS and brain). Basically, these inflammatory mediators cause the body's pain receptors to become more sensitive. Quercetin, however, prevents the formation of those inflammatory mediators.
Allergies
Quercetin counters allergic reactions by inhibiting enzymes responsible for the production of inflammatory mediators. Also, Quercetin inhibits histamine release by stabilizing basophils and mast cells. Quercetin is widely used by those who suffer from constant allergies (such as dust) and seasonal allergies (such as hay fever).
Cardiovascular Health
In a study that was released, a longitudinal investigation of risk factors for chronic diseases in elderly men revealed that high intakes of quercetin and other flavonoids predicted lower mortality rates and incidences of heart attack (myocardial infarction). Researchers in the Netherlands believe it is possible that quercetin and other flavonoids reduce risk of heart disease by lowering the formation of plaque-building substances, specifically oxidized low density lipoprotein (LDL).
Diabetic Complications
Many of the complications associated with
diabetes, such as
glaucoma, cataracts, and
neuropathy, are caused by the sorbitol pathway, a process through which high levels of glucose are converted to sorbitol and fructose via the enzyme aldose reductase. In experimental animals, inhibitors of aldose reductase reduce the kidney and neurological symptoms shown to increase with diabetes. Quercetin is an established aldose reductase inhibitor.
