Quercetin
Also known as: Quercetin dihydrate, Quercetin phytosome, Quercetin Phytosome® (Quercefit®), Quercefit
Quercetin is a flavonoid antioxidant with anti-inflammatory properties; the Phytosome® delivery system uses phospholipids to enhance absorption compared to standard quercetin. Evidence supports potential benefits for allergies, cardiovascular health, and exercise recovery, though human clinical data remains moderate.
