A double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled clinical study recruited 78 individuals with fatigue to evaluate the positive effects of administering Quercefit® (500 mg/day) on self-reported fatigue levels, sleep quality, and physical performance after a 2-month period from the baseline visit.
Data from the treatment group showed significant improvements in all parameters measured, including the FIS-40 scale (fatigue score), PSQI scale (sleep quality), and SPPB test (physical performance), compared to both the baseline and the placebo group (Figure 1).

The administration of Quercefit® for a three-month period has been correlated with a favorable modulation of the body’s physiological response to symptomatic Covid-19 (Figures 2, 3).
This stems from the results of a single-center, prospective, randomized, controlled cohort study that enrolled a total of 120 healthcare workers (not vaccinated and taking all virus containment measures) randomized into two groups (60 subjects each), supplementing respectively with Quercefit® (250 mg twice a day) or a placebo.

The administration of Quercefit® as diet supplementation showed positive effects in another study: of the 5 subjects who contracted Covid-19, there was only 1 out of the 60 in the quercetin Indena Phytosome™ group and 4 out of 60 in the control group. Complete clinical remission was recorded at 7 and 15 days in the supplementation and placebo groups, respectively.
These data were obtained during a prospective, randomized, controlled, open-label study in which 152 subjects were enrolled and randomized in two groups treated respectively with standard care or standard care plus Quercefit® (500 mg twice a day).3
A second clinical trial confirmed the benefits of diet supplementation with quercetin. The results showed that subjects who received Quercefit® (n= 21) had better outcomes compared to the ones receiving standard care.4
These data were validated thanks to the completion of an initial clinical study now extended to 100 Sars-CoV-2-positive subjects that received standard care either alone or with Quercefit® as add-on supplementation (500 mg 3 times a day for the first week; 2 times a day for the second). The results confirmed that subjects who received standard care plus Quercefit® recovered faster and were in better health compared to the control group.5
Indeed, 68% of the subjects who received quercetin supplementation recovered faster from the virus (within one week), compared to 24% in the control group (Figure 3). Moreover, individuals following the Quercefit® regimen had weaker symptoms and showed a better biomarker profile (reduction of LDH) within a week. These data are also complemented by the confirmation of the product’s good tolerability.5

Repeated oral intake of a Quercefit®-containing supplement for 4 weeks has been shown to reduce allergy-related symptoms such as eye itching, sneezing, nasal discharge and sleep disorders compared to the placebo group (n=66).6
Moreover, the treated group also experienced improved quality of life, as reported in the chart below (Figure 5). 6

Confirming its beneficial role for ocular allergy-related disorders, a study performed on adults affected by allergic conjunctivitis showed that Quercefit® may potentially be the perfect natural aid to avoid clinical worsening. In particular, an analysis on 15 subjects after 15 days of supplementation (250 mg, twice a day) highlighted significant improvements in terms of Total Ocular Symptoms Score (TOSS) (Figure 6).7

Quercefit® shows a potential promising effect during allergy season. A further study confirms that after 30 days, administration optimizes general wellbeing in allergy-prone subjects and modulates rhinitis, in addition to reducing the frequency of intermittent discomforts up to 50% during the day and up to 70% during the night.8
A series of 8 case studies have confirmed that Quercefit® can be the perfect ally for eye health, during topical antibiotic therapy on damaged ocular tissues (Figure 7).

Quercefit®的槲皮素溶解度提高了 1倍,进而使 Quercefit®的生物利用度提高了 20倍,并且能够以较低的剂量使用,同时提供与富含蔬菜和水果的饮食水平一致的槲皮素摄入量。 根据一项针对 12名参与者(18-50岁)的试验,口服一剂普通的槲皮素(500毫克)、250毫克 Quercefit®和 500毫克 Quercefit®,Quercefit®组的血浆槲皮素水平更高。

在对 48名非专业铁人三项运动员进行的一项试验中,Quercefit®显示出对训练和表现的积极影响。 Quercefit®给药组比未给药组跑得更快(-11.3% vs. -3.9%)。同样,Quercefit®可以改善跑步后的肌肉不适和痉挛以及运动后的恢复时间,并且还可以平衡氧化应激。

Quercefit®在过敏时代显示出潜在的保护作用。 Quercefit®给药30天后,可优化易过敏受试者的总体健康状况,并调节鼻炎评分。 30天后,Quercefit®组白天间歇性不适频率减少高达 50%,夜间间歇性不适频率减少高达 70%。
