Detailed description
Quercetin is a bioactive flavonoid naturally present in various fruits, vegetables, tea and wine, but its extraction for therapeutic and nutraceutical uses comes mainly from Sophorae japonica, a tree in the Fabaceae family. The flower buds of this plant are particularly rich in quercetin and serve as a major source for concentrated extracts.
This flavonoid is known for its powerful antioxidant properties, helping to reduce oxidative stress. Quercetin is used for its cardiovascular benefits, notably by promoting endothelial function. It also shows potential for supporting the immune system and protecting the neuronal system through its modulatory actions.
