So a good friend lost her husband indirectly from the Rona last year (canceled his heart surgery consult and then he had a heart attack) and she's had a difficult time since. Run down, depressed, etc. She's always been super sensitive to different things but recently came down with this incessant itching everywhere. No real rash, just weird bumps and itching and scratching until she bleeds. Doctors were checking into possible auto-immune or allergies but leaning toward auto-immune. I told her to take some horse paste but she didn't want to (even though she has it in case she ever gets COVID). So then I gave her some Querciten. Two days later and it is 95% better. She's beside herself relieved. Could be a coincidence but IDK, she is definitely a believer.

Quercetin is a flavonol, a subclass of flavonoid compounds. Of the flavonol molecules, quercetin is the most abundant in fruit and vegetables. Quercetin flavonol is characterized by 3 crucial properties: antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory. The combination of these 3 properties makes quercetin an excellent candidate for dealing with situations in which oxidative stress, inflammation and the immune system are involved.
Pretty amazing stuff isn't it?
