Quercetin Bromelain supplies the flavonoid quercetin extracted from seed pods of the Dimorphandra mollis plant. Flavonoids are potent protective nutrients found in many plants and foods. Bromelain is an enzyme derived from the pineapple.
Quercetin helps ensure appropriate immune response, inhibits formation of free radicals and promotes circulatory health in part by supporting the integrity of small blood vessels. Bromelain complements quercetin for appropriate immune response and cardiovascular health, while also promoting joint comfort.
Quercetin belongs to the flavonol subgroup of bioflavonoids, a class of compounds that are widely (and colorfully) distributed in plants commonly consumed in the human diet. A brilliant bright yellow compound in its isolated form, quercetin is found in especially high levels (per serving) in onions, kale, tomatoes, and apples. Flavonols, including quercetin, are believed to present specific actions in contributing to the widely known health benefits of fruit and vegetable consumption.
Bromelain is an enzyme complex derived from the pineapple stem. (Note: G.D.U. stands for “Gelatin-Digesting Units,” a commonly accepted measure of enzyme activity).
Benefits:
