Quercetin is very very interesting.
I’ve used quercetin for the last 10 years to control my allergies - works like a charm.
Yeah, interesting indeed to me. I have been taking Quercetin Plus (500 mg quercetin + 1,400 mg vitamin C not from citrus fruit) for about a year and a half now, to ward off infection by the COVID-19 virus. I get it from Vitamin Shoppe, 300 capsules per bottle for less than $50.
With this dosage I also daily ingest zinc 50mg (as zinc oxide and/or zinc gluconate), vitamin D3 2 gelcaps 2000 i. u. apiece, a 325 mg aspirin, a B12 tablet, a B Complex tablet, plus my prescribed blood pressure pills and a fish oil gelcap. Additionally, if anything even indicating a virus symptom seems on the horizon, I also take a 20 mg Pepcid pill (generically famotidine, $6 for a bottle of 100 tablets at Walmart) until the slight cough, sneeze or runny nose goes away, then I stop it.
We will see how this affects the small re-growth of the meningioma non-cancerous tumor that was surgically removed in September of 2010. I'll mention this article to my doctor. I underwent an MRI scan last Thursday, taken to better define the re-growth nodule detected by CAT scan back in February.
According to the medical literature, the Quercetin Plus dosage could be doubled without harm. We'll see. The quercetin is self-prescribed. Maybe I can get my doctor (who has at least not objected or even issued a caution about it) on board with a firm assent. If he prescribed it, my Medical Advantage Plan might actually pay for the quercetin.
I have been quite well from the virus standpoint all along, having refused to be vaxxed, with good reason. In this time frame I have put up siding and installed six windows, and a garage overhead door, going up and down ladders, raising a 20-foot ladder and a 24-foot ladder, all this by myself, since the pandemic hoorah started.
My 84th birthday was last November. Hmmm.
It has low bioavailability. You must take a lot and often. Sorry to rain on the parade.
It was actually helping my mast cell reactions.
Until I started reacting to IT.
I was so ticked when I realized it. And I have tried it several times since then, and I still react to it.
