Quercetin can help stabilize the cells that release histamine in the body and thereby have an anti-inflammatory and antihistamine effect. Quercetin may help protect against heart disease and cancer.
Quercetin and other bioflavonoids can enhance the body’s ability to control the release of histamine and other important inflammatory signaling pathway metabolites, such as prostaglandins and leukotrines.* This can be especially important in time where allergies, histamine intolerance or MCAS exists.
Quercetin supports the integrity of mast cells, due in part to its ability to stabilize the cell membrane, making them less reactive to allergens.*
Overall, quercetin and other bioflavonoids appear to support the health of the vascular system, by enhancing the strength and permeability of the capillaries, supporting coronary vasorelaxation, and helping to protect cholesterol and tissues in the body from oxidative damage.*
Symptoms Commonly Experienced with Histamine intolerance/MCAS:
Key Benefits Of Quercetin
• Can help stabilize cell membranes, and support the integrity of mast cells*
• Provide nutritional support for the vascular system*
• Have gastro-protective and cardio-protective properties*
• Support normal function of the immune system*
Specifically, quercetin has been observed to inhibit aldose reductase, and possibly tyrosine kinase and nitric oxide synthase; to inhibit the degranulation of mast cells, basophils and neutrophils; and to modulate the activity of NF-kappaB.*
Animal studies have demonstrated quercetin can promote healthy gastric mucus production, potentially providing gastro-protective effects.*
The gastro-protective, as well as the potential cardioprotective effects of quercetin, may also be due to its ability to inhibit lipid peroxidation.*
Some preliminary research suggests that quercetin may potentially support the normal functioning of a healthy immune system.*
Results of recent open-label studies suggest that quercetin may also be helpful for healthy prostate function.*
