NOW Supplements, Quercetin with Bromelain, Balanced Immune System*, 120 Veg Capsules

We love this product and have not been sick at all for 2 years while taking these. I recommend them highly.

We havent been sick yet.

I was on a prescription seasonal allergy pill for ten years. As time went by, it appeared to be less effective. When I would ease back on the doses or quit taking it in winter (I live in the Midwest), my sinuses would plug up horribly and skin rashes would develop. If I got past those withdrawal effects, the itching would kick in. It was indescribable: constant, profound, affecting my sleep. No question, my body was addicted to the medication! I decided after much research to try quercetin as a natural alternative, to relieve these withdrawal symptoms and help me with my allergies moving forward. That was October 2018. The withdrawal symptoms lessened within the first couple days and within a month they were almost completely gone. When 2019 allergy season rolled around, I had an occasional drippy nose...after years of watery eyes and piles of tissues on a daily basis! I also used to get chronic upper respiratory infections, two or three every spring, and these, too, are in the past. I am not prone to long reviews, but I was inspired by other reviewers when choosing the NOW brand and felt I needed to pay it forward! I could never have predicted how much this supplement has improved my quality of life.

My wife takes everyday and so does our German Shepherd Shadow for allergies. It also helps my swelling in my legs, Lipedema and inflammation with MCAS Mast cell. Love this supplement! It helps so many issues! Will continue to buy over and over! I highly recommend it!

Quercetin Review: I hate writing reviews, much less responding to any of them. But as I can empathize with anyone who had my condition, I spent the time to write this review. I had chronic arthritis in my left foot from a foot injury 2 years before. The pain was so bad I had a hard time going to sleep. The pain would start within a few hours after I woke up. The pain was so bad that I had a hard time concentrating on other things. It got so bad, I seriously thought about amputation. I am serious. X-Rays confirmed the diagnosis. Numerous doctors told me there was nothing they could do for it, but I finally went back to my main doctor & I told him I had started using tart cherry extract (two 1,000 mg capsules twice a day) and it seemed to be working. He prescribed a drug called meloxicam (7.5mg) which I also take twice daily. It got a little better, but it still it hurt. So I went back & he gave me a list of homeopathic drugs such as MSM, quercetin & others I forgot. I went immediately to nearest health foods store & bought by chance a brand of quercetin (like 18 $ for 30 to 60 pills -- ouch), but my foot got much better immediately, but not well enough for times when I walked a lot. After I ran out, I went online & bought Puritans Pride quercetin at a steal (I think it was 375 mg to 450 MG or so, not certain, 1 pill twice a day.) It worked fairly good & kept pain abay unless, again, I walked a lot. So when I went back to order more, I read some reviews that made me think that Puritan’s Pride quercetin was perhaps not that good. On the other hand, the NOW quercetin had very good reviews, and the price was around the same. I think my research regarding bromelain helped lead me to it. When I took it, (1 pill 800mg twice a day) I am elated & relieved to this day to say that the arthritis in my left foot completely disappeared. To be fair to Puritan’s Pride, the NOW quercetin was around twice as strong (800 mg vs say 400). But in the same breath, I must say Puritan’s Pride’s prices on their ubiquinol is getting out of the reach of common sense. But the biggest lesson I learned from all of this is that HOMEOPATHIC DRUGS DO WORK, and don’t let any quack tell you that they don’t. Sadly it doesnt help with gout one bit. Only colchicine does to my knowledge.

I was not paid or incentivized to write this review in any way. Im just a regular person who had a LOT of stuff going on that I didnt know abut. To be honest, I bought this because I read that in conjunction with resveratrol, weight loss would happen - or at least, the prevention of weight gain would happen. My metabolism had been at an all time low, my digestion was terrible, I had acid reflux almost every day. I was kind of worried, but brushed it off as just a minor condition I could cure with slippery elm. My stomach kind of looked like I was a few months pregnant, my energy levels were low to say the least, and my mood was down. Now, I was taking other supplements for energy and mood and they were definitely working - but this supplement gave me a fast, dramatic result - one that Id never experienced or anticipated. I woke up the day after taking it, and for the first time in YEARS- I could suck my stomach in all the way (this is the week before my period, mind you). I cant say actual weight loss has happened - but there is NO bloating EVER, my digestion is great, I feel an energy boost and a general lovely sense of well being thanks to this. I think what I got was better than what I was looking for.

My body had so much inflammation that I was constantly in pain. I wanted something natural because NSADs was causing me many side effects. So I researched natural pain relievers and anti-inflammatorys and these 2 ingredients came up a lot. So I heard that NOW brand was a good brand so I bought them. I am so glad that I did! My pain has gone down so much that I barely notice and its only been a week that I have been on these. My joints use to hurt so much especially my hip joints that I could hardly walk at times without a cane. I also had a inflamed colon with a lot of mucus in my stools. Now my joint pain is hardly noticeable and I dont see any mucus in my stools. I dont know if other brands work as well but I do know that these do work. I have also noticed that my seasonal allergies has tamed down a lot. I am hoping that they will completely go away the longer I take these. I take 2 in the morning and 2 in the evening for now and will probably go down to just 2 day when symptoms are completely gone. This is a real and honest review.

Seems to give me bad stomach ache. Like acid reflux too. I had to stop taking them so the actual effects I don’t know. I had bought others and it worked great for congestion. That’s all I have.

Recently started taking but I can honestly say the pain from my stage IV osteomalacia has lessened. Now I do take this supplement with collagen (see other reviews) and Boron. The capsules are not difficult to swallow but I do take them with food. I’d you looking for non narcotic pain relief this would be something you’d want to use. Glad I found it. I’ll continue to write more on it later after I’ve taken it for several months but right now 2-3 weeks in all is well and pain has decreased.

I have been an avid Amazon Shopper for several years now and have never once written a review. SO what is causing me to write one today? Because I have found the cure for my asthma using this product. I have suffered with allergy induced asthma and upper respiratory induced asthma for 15 years I have had five bouts of pneumonia and several bouts of bronchitis. As you can imagine my lungs are trashed. Ive used 12-hour inhalers and 24-hour inhalers and rescue inhalers. Ive used nose sprays and Ive done everything I possibly can including eating a super healthy diet filled and vitamjn supplements to try to combat this disease. At my wits end, I bought this item back in the beginning of November because I read of the anti-inflammatory effects of ithe ingredients. Fast forward 2 and 1/2 months later and I have not used an inhaler one time in the last 4 weeks. I still cannot believe it! This is a miracle for me! Hence the reason for this review. If you have asthma you need to use this product! it will save your lungs!
