Bioflavonoids / Flavonoids http://www.acu-cell.com/bio.html QUERCETIN & HESPERIDIN: antibacterial,antiviral, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant. Quercetin, through both its direct antioxidant activity and through the inhibition of enzymes like lipoxygenase and other inflammatory mediators, works as a systemic anti-inflammatory agent. Like many pharmaceutical ant-inflammatory drugs, hesperidin inhibits cycloxegenase, or COX. Hesperidin also affects inflammatory pathways by blocking a number of other enzymes

Das Flavonoid Quercetin und das Immunsystem: Foods rich in quercetin include black and green tea apples (440 mg/kg), onion, especially red onion (191 mg/kg) (higher concentrations of quercetin occur in the outermost rings and in the part closest to the root, the latter being the part of the plant with the highest concentration), red grapes, citrus fruit, tomato, broccoli and other leafy green vegetables, and a number of berries (Bilberries) http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quercetin ★ Quercetin glycosides occur in broccoli, apples, and especially in onions, with an abundance as high as 0.25–0.5 g/kg

Without the side effects, Naringenin, an antioxidant which gives grapefruit its bitter taste, can do the same job as two separate drugs currently used to manage Type 2 diabetes ★ http://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-1306240/Antioxidant-grapefruit-help-treat-diabetes.html ★ The flavanones naringenin and hesperetin exhibit estrogenic, anticarcinogenic and antioxidative properties. Orange juice and grapefruit juice contain high amounts of these compounds, and therefore their intake from the diet can be relatively high. Because of the relatively high concentrations of flavanones in plasma after after ingestion of grapefruit juice, considerable health effects could ensue in individuals consuming them regularly ★ Flavonoid compounds exhibit inhibitory effects against multiple viruses. While naringin was not inhibitory to herpes simplex virus, poliovirus, parainfluenza virus, the other three flavonoids were effective in various ways: Hesperetin reduced intracellular replication of all four viruses; catechin inhibited infectivity but not intracellular replication of RSV and HSV-1; and quercetin was universally effective in reducing infectivity!

Inflammation and oxidative stress are thought to promote tissue damage in multiple sclerosis. Thus, novel therapeutics enhancing cellular resistance to free radicals could prove useful for multiple sclerosis treatment → http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2724664/ ← Fumaric Acid and its Esters: An Emerging Treatment for Multiple Sclerosis

Casino Magnate's $41.5 Million Picasso Buoys Sotheby's Choppy Sale! Picasso famously spent less than three hours in 1932 painting STILL LIFE WITH TULIPS, a brown and royal-blue view of a basket of flowers sitting beside a marble head whose profile echoed that of his new lover, Marie-Thérèse Walter. The work later changed hands half a dozen times —Christie's owner Francois Pinault paid $28.6 million for it in 2000 — before it recently wound up hanging behind the front desk of the Wynn Las Vegas casino http://goo.gl/ARu0S Stillleben mit Tulpen: Pablo Picassos Stillleben «Nature morte aux tulipes» (1932) ist in New York bei Sotheby's für 41,5 Millionen $ versteigert worden
