Quercetin
Notes from DrKF:
Quercetin is a great antihistamine that we prescribe with luteolin for our most allergic patients. Quercetin, as a senolytic agent, is also an anti-aging rockstar. Next to resveratrol, it is probably the most studied polyphenol in aging research.
What’s a senolytic agent? Senolytic agents are nutrients or drugs that halt the aging process by specifically inhibiting the accumulation of senescent cells (SC)—these are cells that stop dividing but don’t get recycled. SCs accumulate as we age, doing considerable inflammatory damage themselves and also dumping toxic debris into circulation that contributes to the diseases of aging.
Dosage: 500–1000 mg per day.
