Quercetin:
Among the flavonoids, quercetin is one of the most
biologically active. One of the best studied effects of quercetin is its
ability to prevent mast cells from de-granulating during an allergic
response. In preventing mast cell de-granulation, quercetin
prevents the release of histamine, one of the major triggers to the
overall allergic response.
Stinging Nettles:
Nettles leaf has been shown to be effective when used for hayfever.
N-Acetyl Cysteine:
NAC is a precursor to one of the bodies most potent anti-oxidants, glutathione. NAC breaks (reducing) the disulphide bonds in mucus of the intestines and especially the lungs, making mucus less viscous.
