Quercetin

Quercetin is a phytochemcial, known as a flavanoid (antioxidant) that protects the body from free radical damage—the chemical reaction that weakens and damages the body’s cells. Serious health issues can occur, like heart disease and cancer, when cells are severely damaged. According to a study at the State University of New York at Buffalo, Quercetin has been shown to have significant anti-tumor, anti-allergic and anti-inflammatory effects, and can help stop the growth of prostate cancer cells.
