Supplements - NutritionQuercetinNEWS:ARTICLES:JOURNAL ARTICLES:Quercetin reduces blood pressure in hypertensive subjects. (J Nutr. 2007) "These data are the first to our knowledge to show that quercetin supplementation reduces blood pressure in hypertensive subjects. Contrary to animal-based studies, there was no quercetin-evoked reduction in systemic markers of oxidative stress." The quercetin paradox. (Toxicol Appl Pharmacol. 2007) "Free radical scavenging antioxidants, such as quercetin, are chemically converted into oxidation products when they protect against free radicals. The main oxidation product of quercetin, however, displays a high reactivity towards thiols, which can lead to the loss of protein function. … Apparently, the potential toxicity of metabolites formed during the actual antioxidant activity of free radical scavengers should be considered in antioxidant supplementation." |
