Brief Introduction

Quercetin is a plant pigment (flavonoid). It is found in many plants and foods, such as red wine, onions, green tea, apples, berries, Ginkgo biloba, St. John’s wort, American elder, and others. Buckwheat tea has a large amount of quercetin. People use quercetin as a medicine.

Quercetin is used for treating conditions of the heart and blood vessels including “hardening of the arteries” (atherosclerosis), high cholesterol, heart disease, and circulation problems. It is also used for diabetes, cataracts, hay fever, peptic ulcer, schizophrenia, inflammation, asthma, gout, viral infections, chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS), preventing cancer, and for treating chronic infections of the prostate. Quercetin is also used to increase endurance and improve athletic performance.

DESCRIPTION: An independent review of the effects of açaí berries was recently published, including studies on immune function, arthritis, and metabolic parameters. Here are the older açaí videos I referenced: Antioxidant Content of 300 Foods (https://nutritionfacts.org/video/antioxidant-content-of-300-foods-2/) and Superfood Bargains (https://nutritionfacts.org/video/superfood-bargains-2/). Indian gooseberries may also help control blood sugars (https://nutritionfacts.org/video/amla-versus-diabetes/) and rose hips may also help with arthritis (https://nutritionfacts.org/video/dietary-osteoarthritis-treatment/). Plant-based diets in general may help arthritis (https://nutritionfacts.org/video/diet-rheumatoid-arthritis/) and metabolic parameters (https://nutritionfacts.org/video/metabolic-syndrome-and-plant-based-diets/). I also have another video on pomegranate juice: https://nutritionfacts.org/video/is-pomegranate-juice-that-wonderful/ And what’s true of pomegranate juice is true of other juices (https://nutritionfacts.org/video/best-fruit-juice/) with one exception (https://nutritionfacts.org/video/the-fruit-whose-juice-is-healthier/).

Even if supplements contain what they, say they may not be useful (https://nutritionfacts.org/video/dietary-supplement-snake-oil/) and sometimes it’s what’s added rather than what’s missing that is the problem (https://nutritionfacts.org/video/some-ayurvedic-medicine-worse-than-lead-paint-exposure/).
