Bioflavonoid for Allergy and Inflammation Management (Science-Based)
Quercetin has antioxidant activity and is used in herbal medicine as a blood vessel protector. Mast cells contribute to the inflammatory process of allergic reactions, where immunological stimulation leads to mast cell degranulation and the generation of numerous cytokines and inflammatory mediators.
Bromelain is a proteolytic digestive enzyme derived from the stem of the pineapple. Bromelain has been shown to counteract the fibrin and kinin pathways, which stimulate plasmin, which blocks the mobilization of endogenous arachidonic acid and reduces prostaglandin synthesis, thereby reducing localized inflammation and edema.
Studies suggest that bromelain may also enhance the effectiveness of quercetin.
