Contains 500mg quercetin phytosomes per daily dose. The quercetin is linked to phosphatidylcholine (lecithin), which ensures much better absorption in the intestines. So 500mg quercetin phytosomes is equal to 4,000mg standard quercetin!
Quercetin Phytosome from Thorne provides 500 milligrams of quercetin phytosomes per daily dose. Quercetin phytosomes are also called liposomal quercetin. In this case, quercetin is linked to phosphatidylcholine (lecithin). The result of this is that the intestines absorb the quercetin much better. It also ensures a 20x higher biological availability than standard quercetin extract. For example, 500mg of quercetin phytosomes from this product is equivalent to 4,000mg of standard quercetin! The product is also guaranteed free of soy, milk, gluten, preservatives and artificial fragrances and flavors. It is also suitable for vegetarians. Thorne guarantees natural supplements based on scientific research.
About Quercetin from Quercetin Phytosome
Quercetin is a secondary plant substance. Chemically, the substance belongs to the flavonols. The flavonols in turn belong to the chemical group of flavonoids, also called bioflavonoids. Flavonoids are common in plants. They are so-called pigment substances. The substances therefore have different colours, such as red, yellow or blue. Quercetin is a (lemon) yellow substance. The substance is the most common flavonoid in the plant kingdom. It is found, for example, in apples, onions, tea, berries, vegetables, seeds and nuts.
Quercetin Phytosome does not only contain quercetin. The advantage of this product over other quercetin products is that phytosome technology is used. We also call this phytosome complexes or phytosomal. Phytosome complexes are made by means of a patented process that binds a botanical extract with phosphatidylcholine (lecithin). For Quercetin Phytosome quercetin is combined with phosphatidylcholine from sunflower. This allows the product to easily pass the stomach barrier.
