Quercetin

Quercitin is a bioflavinoid that acts as an antioxidant, antihistamine and anti-inflammatory, in addition to its vascular effects.  It stabilizes the membranes of mast cells.  Mast cells release histamine when they come into contact with an allergen so that the body mounts an immune response.  It is this immune response that is responsible for allergic symptoms such as runny nose and itchy watery eyes.

Bioflavinoids are essential for the absorption of vitamin C.  The body cannot produce them; rather they must be taken in through the diet.  They are called vitamin P because they regulate the Permeability of vessels and increase vessel strength.  They are used to treat injuries because they repair damaged capillaries, which allows the body to restore proper blood flow to the area.  Thus pain is relieved and bruising is minimized.  They work with vitamin C to kill bacteria, increase circulation, stimulate bile flow, lower cholesterol, prevent cataracts and prevent herpes outbreaks.

Bromelain 

The bromelains are a group of naturally occurring protein-digestive (proteolytic) enzymes.  They are found in the stem of the pineapple.  Other components of the stem, including various enzymes and calcium, are also present in commercial bromelain preparations.  Besides being used as a protein digestive aid, the enzymes in bromelain inhibit inflammatory chemicals called prostaglandins.  The anti-inflammatory effect has been studied for its effectiveness in inflammatory conditions like arthritis and sinusitis.

In order to get substantial amounts of bromelain from pineapple you must eat the fibrous stem, therefore it is much easier to use a supplement form.  Bromelain can be purchased in capsules.  Enteric-coated capsules limit the use of bromelain in food digestion.  They have been studied, with mixed results, for anti-inflammatory conditions.  Bromelain is found as a component of digestive, multi-enzyme or anti-inflammatory formulas.

Adults: Take 1 to 2 Organika Quercetin With Bromelain caplets per day with meals and a glass of water. Consult a health care practitioner for use beyond one month.
