RELEVANCE TO COVID AND THE SHOT

Aids heart health and prevents platelet aggregation which could lead to blood clots. Chelating action helps remove toxins and protects against heavy metals

ABOUT

Derived from plants, Quercetin is a naturally occurring flavonoid that gives color to fruits and vegetables. [113]

Quercetin is an anti-oxidant and free radical scavenger, [113][114] and is protective against oxidative stress from heavy metals especially cadmium and lead. It moderates the immune system and has powerful anti-inflammatory effects that are enhanced when combined with Bromelain – found in pineapple. [116]

If you have allergies this may be your best friend. As a regulator of histamine release [116] and stabilizer of Mast Cell activation, [115] it can reduce inflammation and other allergy responses. I first started using it a few years ago in a Bromelain combination to assist with inflammation associated with MCAS and other auto immune conditions. It noticeably reduced my reactions within a couple of weeks so I found it very effective.

Regarding Covid and the shot, Quercetin helps to protect the ACE2 receptors on cells. This prevents the spike proteins binding to them, which would otherwise block the healthful function of the cells. [119]

It reduces platelet aggregation [115] which is important considering the high level of blood clots emerging in those with the Covid shot. Quercetin is also considered an ‘anti-viral’, and can act as a chelator, [114] which is helpful if you are detoxifying.

HOW TO USE

  • 500mg – 1000mg daily.
  • Quercetin metabolizes quickly so it is more effective to split the dose into 2. [113]
  • Consume with Zinc (Zn) as the Quercetin will help the Zn get into the cells to clean them out. [113]
  • Take with Bromelain to increase the availability of anti-oxidants in the body.
  • Works in synergy with Vitamin C and Folate.

ALERT

  • Quercetin may be toxic to neurons if allowed to penetrate the blood brain barrier, [116] so do NOT use at the same time as a carrier such as DMSO.
  • Very high doses can stress the kidneys [118] and cause tingling in arms and legs and headaches.
  • Check with your health professional before use if you are using antibiotics, blood thinner medications, aspirin, corticosteroids, or are on chemotherapy. [118]

Did You Know?

Quercetin works synergistically with saponins and may enhance their anti-inflammatory properties. Saponins are a naturally occurring compound found in tea plants and tea extracts.

Quercetin also synergizes with green tea catechins. Green tea has four primary catechins, but the most potent is EGCG. Taken together, quercetin and green tea extract may improve exercise performance.
