Though individual ability to absorb quercetin supplements may vary based on factors that are both genetic and related to the gut microbiome, the dihydrate form in NutraMedix’s Quercetin supplement is generally considered highly bioavailable, making it one of the best quercetin supplements on the market.
What is Quercetin? Quercetin is in a flavonoid family known as flavanols that seem to support the body’s normal detoxification processes related to antioxidant activity and bind to iron in some cases, for support of healthy oxidation status. Some research suggests that flavonoids also support zinc transport in cells. Most recently, these chemicals have been investigated for how they affect the process of cell division and communication between cells, which can be altered by normal aging. As opposed to antioxidant support, this is now a major area of research into the health-supporting properties of flavonoids.
Taking quercetin supplements with meals and snacks throughout the day may improve your body’s ability to use quercetin. When taking a quercetin capsule, it is important to do so daily as the body processes and eliminates quercetin within six to 28 hours.
