Quercetin-Bromelain Complex

Quercetin-Bromelain Complex

Quercetin-Bromelain Complex, provided by Douglas Laboratories, is a unique formulation of quercetin, buffered vitamin C, and bromelain. Quercetin is a bioflavonoid that has excellent antioxidant activity.

Magnesium ascorbate is a buffered form of vitamin C, a key antioxidant, which synergistically supports the quercetin activity. Bromelain is a proteolytic enzyme purified from pineapple, which is active and stable at the acidic levels found in the stomach.

Functions

Quercetin is a naturally occurring bioflavonoid with antioxidant activity. The antioxidant activity of quercetin supports the gastrointestinal tract and immune system in several ways. First, quercetin inhibits oxidation of lipids. The gastrointestinal tract has an increased exposure to oxidative stress due in part by a more acidic environment.

It is important to protect the lipid bilayer of the cell wall of the gastrointestinal tract because these cells serve as an important part of the body’s immune system.

Indications

Quercetin-Bromelain Complex may be taken as a dietary supplement for those individuals who wish to increase their intake of this important bioflavonoid, key antioxidant vitamin C, and the proteolytic enzyme Bromelain.
