Hi-Tech Pharmaceuticals has once again taken an excellent ingredient and utilized our Cyclosome® delivery to make it considerably better. Hi-Tech’s goal was to overcome the low bioavailability hurdle of Quercetin and Hi-Tech achieved that with the novel delivery system Cyclosome® to boost absorption.

Hi-Tech used a more soluble formulation of Quercetin based on phosphatidylcholine and beta cyclodextrin. Quercetin Cyclosome, has recently been developed, and was found to facilitate the attainment of very high plasma levels of Quercetin—up to 20 times more than usually obtained following a dose of Quercetin—when the novel formulation was administered orally in human volunteers. These results suggest that Quercetin Cyclosome allows the oral administration of Quercetin in a safe and bioavailable manner, thus facilitating the effective utilization of this natural compound to help boost natural immunity.

Quercetin’s antiviral capacity has been attributed to four main mechanisms of action:

1. Inhibiting the virus’ ability to infect cells by transporting zinc across cellular membranes
2. Inhibiting replication of already infected cells
3. Reducing infected cells’ resistance to treatment with antiviral medication
4. Inhibiting platelet aggregation — and helps people who suffer abnormal blood clotting

Quercetin is a flavonoid found naturally in a number of foods including apples, onions, teas, berries, and red wine. Quercetin has been shown to encourage a healthy immune response, especially to seasonally changing environments. In addition, Quercetin acts as an antioxidant, neutralizing free radicals—the chemical by-products that harm cell membranes and damage DNA while possessing significant antihistamine and anti-inflammatory properties.
