Quercetin is a member of the flavonoid family, a class of plant pigments belonging to the polyphenol family. Flavonoids are found in many plant sources such as fruits, vegetables, leaves and grains, and their properties are highly valued for supporting the body.
Found in many medicinal plants, including ginkgo and St. John's wort, it is often derived from sophora japonica, a tree native to Asia.
