<p>IQuercetin is a flavonoid, that was identified in 1936 by the same scientist who discovered Vitamin C, Albert Szent-Gyorgyi. A flavonoid is a naturally occurring chemical found in plants and fruit, that is responsible for giving them their colour. Quercetin is yellow, and is found in multiple plants, fruit, and vegetables.</p>
<p>Flavonoids are antioxidants, that help to protect the plant and its fruit from free radical damage. Researchers have found that these same antioxidant properties are conveyed to us as humans when we consume them through our food. NZ grown <a href="https://www.healthpost.co.nz/natural-health-supplements/specialty-supplements/blackcurrant/">Blackcurrants </a>also contain flavonoids and are a great whole food source.</p>

<h3>Taking a Quercetin Powder or Supplement</h3>
<p>Quercetin comes in tablets, capsules, powders, liposomal liquid, and even a gel.</p>
<p>Although found in many of our foods, researchers have spent years looking for ways to facilitate optimal absorption when Quercetin is taken as a supplement. It is now known that the other constituents found in fruit and vegetables are what assisted with bioavailability. So, most of the Quercetin supplements that you come across, will also contain other bioflavonoids, and antioxidants like Vitamin C.</p>
