Quercetin is a flavonoid, a plant pigment found in onions, apples, capers and tea. This extract comes from the buds of Sophora japonica, a plant grown for its flavonoid content.
Flavonoids are the compounds behind many of the effects credited to fruit and vegetables. People take quercetin as a supplement in amounts food cannot provide, often with bromelain or vitamin C.
Each capsule provides quercetin with nothing else apart from the vegetable shell. It is often taken with meals, and it is the ingredient at the centre of several Nutri Tailor formulas.

Quercetin is a flavonoid that stabilises mast cells, the immune cells that release histamine during allergic reactions. It also has broad anti inflammatory and antioxidant activity and functions as a zinc ionophore, helping shuttle zinc into cells where it supports immune function. It is found naturally in onions, apples, berries and capers.
For allergy and immune support, take Quercetin with meals. Standard quercetin has relatively low oral bioavailability (approximately 17 to 25 percent), and the fat content in food significantly improves absorption. For gut focused use, taking it away from food allows quercetin to act directly on the gut lining rather than being absorbed systemically.
Plain quercetin is absorbed poorly on an empty stomach, so it is taken with a meal that contains some fat. Quercetin with bromelain pairs it with a pineapple enzyme, a traditional combination that some people prefer. Phytosome forms bind quercetin to a phospholipid to raise absorption, at several times the price per milligram. These capsules give 250 mg of quercetin on its own from Sophora japonica, which suits people who want the plain flavonoid at a measured dose and are happy to take it with food.
If you take any prescription medication, please consult your prescribing healthcare professional before starting Quercetin. Quercetin can interact with certain antibiotics, blood thinners, and cyclosporine. Suitability and allergen detail is in the Informational Booklet supplied with the product.
People pointed at quercetin by a practitioner or their own reading who want the plain form at a known 250 mg dose, people who want to run the 500 to 1,000 mg a day range the research used, and anyone who wants a single ingredient rather than a blend. There is no authorised health claim for quercetin, so Nutri Tailor does not promise an outcome from it.
A flavonoid, one of the yellow plant pigments, found in onions, apples, capers and berries. Each capsule provides 250 mg. It is poorly absorbed on its own, so it is usually taken with a meal that contains some fat.
Tablets need binders, fillers and a coating to hold their shape. A capsule is a cellulose shell around the powder, so it carries no binders and breaks down quickly once swallowed.
