Bioflavonoids

Optimal dose 500 mg/day

There are many members of this family, which can be found in the white part of citrus fruits just below the peel. They are important for blood vessel integrity and immune function. A high intake of flavonoids has been shown to lower heart attack risk and 500 mg a day (of the quercetin form) decreases the symptoms of prostatitis. They have also been shown to have cancer inhibiting effects.
