Thorne's Quercetin Phytosome is indicated for allergy sufferers, helping to stabilize mast cell membranes, which in turn can reduce the release of histamine.

Phytosomal quercetin has optimal absorption. Several of quercetin's beneficial effects appear to be due to its antioxidant activity. Quercetin can scavenge free radicals and inhibit the oxidation of LDL cholesterol. On its own, and when combined with vitamin C, quercetin may reduce the incidence of oxidative damage to skin and nerves caused by glutathione depletion. This exclusive Thorne formula features quercetin bound to sunflower-derived phospholipids to enhance absorption.

Widely found in the plant kingdom, quercetin is the most abundant of the flavonoid molecules. It can be found in a variety of foods, including apples, onions, teas, berries, cabbage family vegetables, seeds, and nuts.

The crucial advantage of Thorne's quercetin phytosome is its advanced phytosome technology. Phytosome complexes are created through a patented process that binds a botanical extract to phospholipids—phospholipids are key components of cell membranes. In the case of the quercetin phytosome, quercetin is combined with sunflower-derived phospholipids to create a phytosome complex that can easily cross the intestinal barrier.

Quercetin exhibits a wide range of antiviral properties that can interfere with several steps of pathogen virulence - virus entry, virus replication, protein assembly - and these therapeutic effects can be enhanced by co-administration of vitamin C, which is why it has been used to aid in the treatment and prevention of COVID-19 by preventing virus replication.
