Quercetin has been found to powerfully stabilize mast cells , helping to prevent stress-induced anxiety and allergic reactions.

Stress itself is adequate to begin the migration of immune cells towards your skin, as if preparing to deal with a wound or infection. Wherein stress implied injury of some type. Stress turns up the volume knob on mast cells , priming them to release inflammatory chemicals that are typically involved with allergies, asthma, skin conditions, and digestive problems. Communication coming from mast cells feeds back to nerves through a sense of anxiety.

Irritants besides stress can also activate immune cells, causing skin problems or other allergy reactions on mucosal surfaces (like your lungs or sinuses).

Stress, behavior, skin problems, and other allergy issues are linked with mast cells sitting as a modulator. Problems occur when the mast cells are primed and set in an over-reactive mode. This means that a common stimulus, such as a moderate amount of stress, could trigger anxiety, allergic reactions, sneezing, or in more advanced situations could lock in chronic skin or breathing problems.

A natural way to help stabilize mast cells can help them calm down. Many nutrients found in fresh fruits and vegetables are likely to help, quercetin stands out as the top nutrient to help stabilize mast cells. Reducing the trigger that is punching mast cells in the nose, such as stress or Candida , will also be of help.

Quercetin was highly protective to the nervous system. The dose used translates to 1500 mg – 3000 mg per day for a 150 pound adult. Quercetin not only prevents mast cells from inappropriately releasing irritant chemicals like histamine it also reduces the inflammatory immune system signals like IL-6 that come from mast cells and are known to talk to nerve cells ( glial cells).

• Quercetin helps improve the overall efficiency of your immune response to combat infection.
• Quercetin simultaneously offset the effects of stress while reducing susceptibility to the flu .
• Quercetin has a stabilizing effect of your nervous system and immune system primarily by modulating mast cell function.
• Great nutrient for any person prone to allergy issues, sinus problems, breathing problems, skin problems, or digestive problems – especially when stress is an aggravator to these issues.
