Dr. Formulated Quercetin Drop Uric Acid (60ct Tablets)
Keeping Uric Acid levels (a waste product formed in the body when digesting food) in check can help balance a healthy metabolism. Dr. Perlmutter designed Quercetin Drop (Uric) Acid† to work with your diet and exercise program to help you reduce dietary uric acid levels.† Dr. Formulated Quercetin Drop Uric Acid† is Non-GMO Project Verified, NSF Certified Gluten Free, Informed Choice and Carbon Neutral Certified.
Until recently, elevated uric acid levels were only associated with gout & kidney stones. Dr. Perlmutter has since educated us on the importance of monitoring lowering uric acid levels. Uric acid is a waste product formed in the body from metabolizing purines, alcohol, and fructose (aka the Standard American Diet) Through evolution, we humans have lost the ability to digest uric acid. During times of famine, it was beneficial to quickly accumulate body fat from consuming fructose from fruits. This led the human body to stop producing the enzyme Uricase that breaks down uric acid in the body. Although this helped our ancestors survive periods of food scarcity, this now poses a problem to modern humans who have access to fructose 24/7. Instead of only eating fructose once a year when the fruit is ripe, we now have hight fructose corn syrup year around. This triggers our body to store fat while causing a cascade of adverse health outcomes. This is exactly why Dr. Perlmutter thought it was so prudent to create a clinically studied formula that can help reduce dietary uric acid levels.
This formula contains 500mg of Phytosure Certified Quercetin, a clinically studied amount of quercetins shown to reduce uric acid levels. This formula also contains luteolin. Luteolin, like quercetin is a plant-derived flavonoid.
Quercetin and luteolin are not the only clinically studied ingredients in this formula. This formula also includes organic tart cherry fruit extract. Tart cherry is another botanical that has been shown to reduce uric acid concentrations in humans. This formula also includes the powerful antioxidant support of 500mg of vitamin C including organic rose hips and acerola cherry fruit.
