QuerceVit, Liposomal, 250 ml

QuerceVit is a liquid, liposomal supplement containing quercetin, with added vitamin C and zinc. Vitamin C and zinc both contribute to the normal function of the immune system. A daily dose of 10 ml provides 250 mg of quercetin, equivalent to the amount found in approximately 25 large apples.

The plant compound from apples and onions

Quercetin belongs to the flavonoids, a large group of natural plant compounds. It is found particularly in apple peel, onions, berries and kale, but only in small amounts at a time. The comparison with the 25 apples illustrates the point of taking a supplement; you get a concentrated, specified amount in a single spoonful. The compound is encapsulated in liposomes together with vitamin C and zinc.

How to take QuerceVit

• Take 10 ml daily, preferably with a meal.
• The dose can be taken straight or stirred into a glass of water.
• Do not exceed the recommended daily dose.
• Dietary supplements should not be used as a substitute for a varied diet.

The taste is slightly tart with a faint bitterness from the plant extract. The bottle contains 25 doses and should be stored in a cool place once opened. Choose a fixed time of day, and that spoonful will become as much a habit as your morning coffee.

Flavonoids such as this are typically found in the peel and the outer layers of fruit and vegetables – precisely the parts that many people peel away. If you eat plenty of apples with their peel, onions and berries, your diet alone will serve you well; the supplement is the shortcut for all other days. The range uses the same form and dosage across all the ingredients, so one spoonful at a fixed time covers it all, no matter how many bottles your routine ends up involving.

Create your own range

QuerceVit shares a range with CurcuVit, where the curcuminoids in turmeric play the leading role, and the two are often chosen together by people interested in plant-based compounds. Both share the same dosage and form, so your routine remains the same simple spoonful, regardless of which substance the bottle contains.
