Quercetin & Bromelain

Quercetin & Bromelain

Quercetin belongs to a group of plant pigments called flavonoids that give many fruits, flowers and vegetables their colour. It occurs naturally in a range of everyday foods, including apples, black tea, berries, capers, red onions and red wine.

Flavonoids such as quercetin are part of the family of plant antioxidants (polyphenols) you get from a colourful, varied diet. Antioxidants are compounds that help neutralise free radicals, the naturally occurring unstable molecules produced by the body. A supplement is simply a convenient way to take a consistent daily amount, which is difficult to achieve from food alone because natural levels vary so much.

What is bromelain?

Bromelain is a protein-digesting enzyme mixture derived from the stem, fruit and juice of the pineapple plant. Because it acts on proteins, it has a long history of culinary use, and it is traditionally combined with quercetin in a single supplement. In supplement form, bromelain is measured in GDU (Gelatin Digesting Units), which reflects the activity of the enzyme rather than just its weight.

Why the two are paired

Quercetin and bromelain are a popular, long-established pairing, which is why many people look for them together rather than buying each separately. The appeal is simple: two plant-derived ingredients in one convenient daily capsule.
