We investigated how onion peel extract, packed with quercetin, affects high cholesterol levels in mice. Divided into four groups, the mice were fed different diets for 12 weeks.
Those receiving the higher dose of onion peel extract showed significant reductions in serum and liver cholesterol levels, along with improved liver health markers compared to the group on a high cholesterol diet alone.
This suggests that quercetin may lower cholesterol by increasing its excretion.

We observed the benefits of quercetin nanoemulsion (QN) in mice fed a high-cholesterol diet. Divided into groups, the mice were supplemented with different doses of QN for six weeks.
Results showed improved serum and liver lipid profiles, suggesting that QN helped enhance cholesterol efflux by affecting specific pathways in the liver. Increased AMPK activity and reduced levels of certain microRNAs were also noted.
Overall, our findings indicate that QN could be beneficial for cholesterol regulation, at least in this animal model.

Quercetin shows promise for cholesterol
We explored how quercetin affects heart health in rats with high cholesterol. The study found that quercetin significantly improved lipid profiles and reduced oxidative stress linked to high-cholesterol diets.
It also helped prevent diastolic dysfunction and cardiac cholesterol buildup, while supporting better energy metabolism in the heart. These positive effects suggest that quercetin could be beneficial for managing heart issues caused by high cholesterol and high sugar levels.

Allergy relief
6 people found this helpful
I adore this product! After taking it for seasonal allergies for a couple of months, it has worked wonders, eliminating the need for over-the-counter meds. Initially, I took one in the morning and two at night. Within weeks, my sinus issues resolved, and my eyes are no longer itchy. I’ve reduced my intake to one pill at night. This has been the best allergy relief I’ve found. Highly recommend!

We examined the effects of a berry extract from Lonicera caerulea, rich in polyphenols, on high cholesterol levels. In laboratory tests with Caco-2 cells and rats, the extract proved effective in reducing cholesterol levels and boosting antioxidant capacity.
In rats fed a high cholesterol diet, supplementation with this berry extract significantly lowered total cholesterol and harmful LDL levels while raising beneficial HDL levels. We observed measurable improvements in cholesterol metabolism and antioxidant activity. Overall, Lonicera caerulea berry extract holds promise as a functional food for cholesterol management.

We examined the effects of quercetin nanoemulsion (QT+NE) on cholesterol levels and muscle function in mice on a high-fat diet. Over 11 weeks, QT+NE showed a notable reduction in body weight gain and improved fat distribution when compared to a high-fat diet alone.
Interestingly, QT+NE significantly boosted the activation of SIRT1, a gene linked to mitochondrial health, and maintained mitochondrial DNA levels. However, traditional quercetin failed to show these benefits. Our findings suggest that QT+NE could be a promising option for enhancing muscle health and managing cholesterol in high-fat dietary contexts.

We investigated how Massa Medicata Fermentata (MMF), which contains quercetin, impacts cholesterol and overall metabolic health. In our study, zebrafish were fed a high-cholesterol diet while receiving MMF for three weeks.
The results showed that MMF helped reduce cholesterol accumulation and body mass index, indicating positive metabolic changes. Additionally, MMF demonstrated strong antioxidant effects, effectively inhibiting LDL oxidation and decreasing inflammation markers.
While we observed beneficial effects on cholesterol and inflammation, further research is needed to fully understand quercetin's role in these outcomes.
