It is part of a larger group of compounds known as flavonoids\u2014specifically, flavonols.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Your body values quercetin primarily for its antioxidant properties. This means it helps protect your cells from damage caused by harmful molecules called free radicals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While it&#8217;s present in many plants, it\u2019s usually not in its pure form. Instead, it\u2019s commonly bound to sugars, forming compounds called glycosides, which your body breaks down during digestion to absorb the active form.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Top Food Sources of Quercetin<\/h3>\n\n\n<style>.kb-image32726_28c10c-1b .kb-image-has-overlay:after{opacity:0.3;border-top-left-radius:30px;border-top-right-radius:30px;border-bottom-right-radius:30px;border-bottom-left-radius:30px;}.kb-image32726_28c10c-1b img.kb-img, .kb-image32726_28c10c-1b .kb-img img{border-top-left-radius:30px;border-top-right-radius:30px;border-bottom-right-radius:30px;border-bottom-left-radius:30px;}<\/style>\n<div class=\"wp-block-kadence-image kb-image32726_28c10c-1b\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" src=\"https:\/\/www.jinfiniti.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/christina-deravedisian-ivYn5zDuY2Q-unsplash-1.jpg\" alt=\"A bowl of blueberries on a plain background\" class=\"kb-img wp-image-32947\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.jinfiniti.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/christina-deravedisian-ivYn5zDuY2Q-unsplash-1.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.jinfiniti.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/christina-deravedisian-ivYn5zDuY2Q-unsplash-1-480x320.jpg 480w, https:\/\/www.jinfiniti.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/christina-deravedisian-ivYn5zDuY2Q-unsplash-1-600x400.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The average daily intake of quercetin can vary quite a bit.
