Brief Introduction

Quercetin is a plant pigment (flavonoid). It is found in many plants and foods, such as red wine, onions, green tea, apples, berries, Ginkgo biloba, St. John’s wort, American elder, and others. Buckwheat tea has a large amount of quercetin. People use quercetin as a medicine.

Quercetin is used for treating conditions of the heart and blood vessels including “hardening of the arteries” (atherosclerosis), high cholesterol, heart disease, and circulation problems. It is also used for diabetes, cataracts, hay fever, peptic ulcer, schizophrenia, inflammation, asthma, gout, viral infections, chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS), preventing cancer, and for treating chronic infections of the prostate. Quercetin is also used to increase endurance and improve athletic performance.

Main Function

1.Quercetin may expel phlegm and arrest coughing, it can also be used as anti-asthmatic.

2. Quercetin has anticancer activity, inhibits PI3-kinase activity and slightly inhibits PIP Kinase activity, reduces cancer cell growth via type II estrogen receptors.

3.Quercetin may inhibit histamine release from basophils and mast cells.

4. Quercetin may control the spread of certain viruses within the body.

5, Quercetin may help reduce tissue destruction.

6.Quercetin may also be beneficial in the treatment of dysentery, gout, and psoriasis

Video Content Summary:

In this video, I begin the introduction to lipids, what they are, what kinds there are, and what their functions are.

A common misconception is that lipids are fats. Though fats are lipids, not all lipids are fats. Lipids are defined, essentially, as molecules that are mostly nonpolar or hydrophobic, and, thus, insoluble in water, at least for the most part. Many lipids, however, are amphipathic or amphiphilic because they have some hydrophobic (nonpolar) and some hydrophilic (polar) portions.

The functions of lipids vary widely. Some lipids can store energy and/or be used as fuel. Some make up membranes and are known as membrane lipids. Some can act as hormones, and hormones are signaling molecules. Others are key nutrients, as some vitamins are lipids, though that’s not discussed much in this video or the rest of the videos in this series.

Lipids are set apart from the other classes of macromolecules – carbohydrates, proteins, and nucleic acids – because they do not have monomers or polymers in the way that the other three do. Carbohydrate monomers are monosaccharides, and their polymers are polysaccharides. For proteins, the monomers are amino acids, and the polymers are polypeptides, which can fold and become functional proteins. Nucleic acids have nucleotide monomers, and polynucleotide polymers, which are simply called nucleic acids. With lipids, this set-up isn’t the case. There aren’t any monomeric or polymeric units. This is something that is seen when discussing the specific structures of other lipids in the other videos of this lipid series.

The lipids mentioned in this video are 1) free fatty acids 2) triacylglycerols or triglycerides 3) phospholipids 4) sphingolipid 5) glycolipids 6) steroids. Free fatty acids are the simplest lipid, and they are used for fuel, as they can be broken down for energy via beta oxidation, or they can be created via fatty acid synthesis. Triacylglycerols or triglycerides are two names for the same thing, and they are used for fuel storage — they are a key storage form of energy in cells. Phospholipids, sphingolipids, and glycolipids are all membrane lipids because they all show up are membrane components. Phospholipids have phosphate groups, sphingolipids, have a sphingosine backbone, and glycolipids have sugar moieties attached to them. Steroids, finally, are important in membranes and as hormones or signaling molecules.

The unique all-inclusive health supplement
NutriShield is a comprehensive nutritional supplement that combines 43 different key nutrients from
the world’s healthiest diets — adding essential vitamins and minerals to Omega 3 and
anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant compounds from fruits and vegetables.
WHY A ONE-A-DAY VITAMIN PILL ALONE IS NOT ENOUGH
The latest research reveals internal inflammation to be a key factor in ageing and age-related illnesses such as heart disease, stroke, cancer, arthritis, Type 2 diabetes and dementia. See free report below.

So if you are serious about using nutritional supplements to stay healthy, you should consider more than a simple A-Z vitamin/mineral pill. Look for a health supplement designed to reduce inflammation, too.
NutriShield is based on 30 years of research by Dr Paul Clayton, an internationally recognised health scientist.

There are two versions of NutriShield, both high in anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory nutrients. But NutriShield Premium delivers additional specialist food extracts including carotenoids (lutein, lycopene etc), co-enzyme Q10, soy isoflavones, betaine and glucosamine
NutriShield has been independently tested.
Its unique combination significantly outperformed
a one-a-day A-Z vitamin supplement.
