X-Hist

Ingredients Quercetin: Among the flavonoids, quercetin is one of the most biologically active. One of the best studied effects of quercetin is its ability to prevent mast cells from de-granulating during an allergic response. In preventing mast cell de-granulation, quercetin prevents the release of histamine, one of the major triggers to the overall allergic response. Stinging Nettles: Nettles leaf has been shown to be effective when used for hayfever.N-Acetyl Cysteine: NAC is a precursor to one of the bodies most potent anti-oxidants, glutathione. NAC breaks (reducing) the disulphide bonds in mucus of the intestines and especially the lungs, making mucus less viscous.Ascorbic Acid Vitamin C: One of the most talked about vitamins in recent decades, vitamin C activity was first identified hundreds of years ago for it’s ability to prevent and treat scurvy. There are few conditions for which Vitamin C has not been promoted for, and in many cases had some effect.Bromelain: Bromelain is the term used to describe a group of enzymes derived from the stem and fruit of the pineapple plant (Ananas comosus). As a plant enzyme, Bromelain has many advantages and uses as a supplemental ingredient. Bromelain has an “Approved” status by the German Commission E for micro inflammations (allergic reactions, localized internal infections). Other activities associated with Bromelain include inhibition of platelet aggregation, decreasing the viscosity of mucus (mucolytic), antibiotic activity and smooth muscle relaxant.
