We conducted a double-blind, randomized placebo-controlled trial to evaluate how benesco™, a supplement containing quercetin, might help alleviate reflux symptoms. Our study involved 100 participants who were randomly assigned to receive either benesco™ or a placebo for six weeks.

The results showed that 39% of participants taking benesco™ experienced at least a 50% reduction in their reflux symptoms. However, this was not significantly different compared to the 47% success rate in the placebo group. Additionally, both groups reported a comparable number of reflux-free days and nights, offering no strong evidence that benesco™ is effective in treating reflux.

In conclusion, while we explored the potential of quercetin through benesco™, our findings indicate that it did not provide a significant benefit over the placebo. This suggests that those struggling with reflux might not find relief from this particular natural alternative.

Effective for reflux
I purchased this for my mother in hopes of managing her IBS. The ingredients are very well formulated, and she found the capsule size acceptable. She loved it because it helped alleviate bloating, acid reflux, and heartburn. Quercetin is known as an antioxidant with anti-cancer properties and aids in fighting inflammation. I highly recommend it.
