Quercetin and Pterostilbene Advanced by Dr. Mercola
This unique advanced Dr. Mercola formula contains quercetin phytosome complex of Styphnolobium japonicum, or Sophora japonica flower, and an active form of pterostilbene naturally identical to blueberries, trans-pterostilbene. These special antioxidants, namely flavonoids or polyphenols, are found in very small amounts in various fruits and vegetables. Both substances have very broad ranging effects in the body.
Liposomal technique for good absorption
In this quercetin and pterostilbene advanced formula use is made of liposomal technology to significantly enhance the bioavailability of the compounds. As a result, the substances are very well absorbed by the body. Quercetin phytosome complex is a form of quercetin which contains phospholipids which protect the quercetin and help in the formation of liposomes in the stomach. These liposomes surround the quercetin complex and support the transport through the cell membranes, ensuring a robust absorption capacity. The same liposomal technology is used, for example, in Dr. Mercola’s liposomal vitamin C and vitamin D.

Unique combination of two powerful antioxidants
For the first time, Dr. Mercola combines two powerful antioxidants in a formula with increased bioavailability (advanced formula) thanks to a special phytosome complex with phospholipids. In this form you can be sure that the substances end up where they should do their work. The result is a product with a broad range of effects.
Quercetin
Quercetin is one of the many bioflavonoid nutrients. Quercetin is common in apples, onions, red cabbage, red grapes, raspberries, green tea and garlic. Bioflavonoids are also found in citrus fruits such as lemon and orange and promote the absorption of vitamin C. Flavonoids, a special class of antioxidants, belong to the largest family of polyphenolic compounds and are also called polyphenols. Plants naturally produce flavonoids to protect themselves against adverse conditions including ultraviolet light, injuries and parasitic invaders. The rich supply of phytochemicals in flavonoids interact with enzyme systems in our body.
Trans-pterostilbene
The active form of pterostilbene is trans pterostilbene. It has roughly the same structure as resveratrol. Trans Pterostilbene, however, is soluble in fats, which makes it more easily absorbed into the body. It also has a longer half-life in the blood, so the benefits last longer. Finally, it is also more biologically active once absorbed. Even at lower doses, trans pterostilbene shows superior activity.
