Allergic rhinitis, more commonly known as "hay fever," is the most common form of allergy and manifests as inflammation of the nose and airways following exposure to an airborne allergen. People with allergic rhinitis may experience a runny or blocked nose, sneezing, an itchy throat, watery eyes, or headaches. Other forms of allergies may manifest as rashes, itching, redness, or digestive problems. Whether the immune system is reacting to dust, cats, freshly cut grass, pollen, or certain foods, the body produces an excessive immune response, composed of numerous pro-inflammatory chemicals. One of these chemicals is known as histamine, and it is the chemical often responsible for uncomfortable allergy symptoms. Quercetin is a naturally occurring flavonoid compound found most abundantly in apples, onions, tea, and berries. Clinically, quercetin is best known for its ability to stabilize mast cells, prevent histamine release, and prevent and manage allergic reactions, including allergic rhinitis. An additional benefit of quercetin is its cardioprotective nature due to its ability to prevent the oxidation of LDL cholesterol. Finally, quercetin has also been shown to have gastroprotective, anti-cataract, anti-inflammatory, and antiviral effects. A combination of its immune-modulating abilities and these actions may explain why research has shown it can be effective in cases of chronic non-bacterial prostatitis. Cyto-Matrix Quercetin provides a high dose of 500 mg of pure quercetin in each vegetable capsule. Naturally sourced from the flowers of the Sophora japonica plant, Cyto-Matrix Quercetin is a wise choice for mast cell stabilization and antihistamine action to manage and treat allergic and inflammatory responses such as hay fever and non-bacterial prostatitis.
