Quercetin

Quercetin is an ideal longevity companion. Quercetin is one of the bioflavonoids, the most common polyphenols in the plant world. As plant pigments, flavonoids are responsible for protecting plants from all environmental influences.

Quercetin is also known as the “king of flavonoids”. This royal attribute is not without reason, as the molecule is the focus of the latest research with promising results, including in the area of ​​“longevity”.

Scientific researchers have found that human cells can only divide a limited number of times before they cease to function in our bodies. Because the cells are no longer alive but not yet dead, they are called "zombie cells" or senescent cells. The older you get, the more senescent cells accumulate in your tissues, which can damage surrounding cells. Quercetin helps your body break down these zombie cells and replace them with new ones.

We use a 100% natural, purely plant-based extract from the flowers of the Japanese pagoda tree (Sophora Japonica). Our raw material does not contain any synthetic quercetin, which would have a low bioavailability.

Quercetin is particularly concentrated in the outer layers of plants and fruits, such as onions, grapes and apples. Without the skins, however, the quercetin content drops to almost zero. The flowers of the Japanese pagoda tree (Sophora japonica) in particular contain extremely high amounts of quercetin. We produce our 100% natural and bioavailable quercetin from the flowers of the tree.

You cannot cover your daily requirement of quercetin in sufficient quantities through food.
