Quercetin Helps Veins Function Better
Inflammation is common, especially when a person is under high stress or in a state of wear and tear for whatever reason. In these situations the circulatory system, including your heart, most copes with an increased inflammatory burden. A new study shows that quercetin can rather dramatically stabilize small blood vessels relating to your veins, helping reduce fluid retention and specifically boost the structural integrity of your heart.
Your circulatory system must maintain a level of “tightness” regarding the structure of its small parts. Otherwise, the pressure going through it leaks and causes inefficiency. Part of your microcirculation involves picking up blood cells that have spent their oxygen. These must be sent back through your veins to pick up more oxygen in your lungs. While these tiny venules are porous by design, they can readily become irritated by anything inflammatory, making them too porous and not tight enough to function properly. This leads to fluid accumulation and a much higher risk for inappropriate clotting. In the current study quercetin was shown to stabilize the circulatory cells involved so they did not become too leaky.
While such a problem can happen anywhere in the microcirculation around your body, it can specifically happen in the microcirculation of the heart itself, leading to inflammatory fluid buildup and reduced heart function. Quercetin can be added to the list of circulatory protective compounds such as DHA Docosahexaenoic acid Essential omega 3 fatty acid integral to the health of all cell membranes, nerve and brain function. Must be gotten through the diet via cold water oceanic fish or some very limited plant sources or taken as a supplement., tocotrienol Specialized form of vitamin E. Powerful antioxidant showing positive benefits for cholesterol, cardiovascular, neurological health and cancer risk reduction. E, grape seed extract, and horse chestnut.
