DR . FORMULATED QUERCETIN DROP URIC ACID †
Until recently , elevated uric acid levels were only associated with gout & kidney stones . Dr . Perlmutter has since educated us on the importance of monitoring and lowering uric acid levels . Uric acid is a waste product formed in the body from metabolizing purines , alcohol , and fructose ( aka the Standard American Diet ). Through evolution , we humans have lost the ability to digest uric acid . During times of famine , it was beneficial to quickly accumulate body fat from consuming fructose from fruits . This led the human body to stop producing the enzyme Uricase that breaks down uric acid in the body . Although this helped our ancestors survive periods of food scarcity , this now poses a problem to modern humans who have access to fructose 24 / 7 . This triggers our body to store fat while causing a cascade of adverse health outcomes . This is exactly why Dr . Perlmutter thought it was so prudent to create a clinically studied formula that may help reduce dietary uric acid levels . †
This formula contains 500mg of Phytosure™ Certified Quercetin , a clinically studied amount of quercetin shown to reduce dietary uric acid levels . † This formula also contains luteolin . Luteolin , like quercetin is a plant-derived flavonoid . Here is why Dr . Perlmutter is excited about including luteolin in our Quercetin Drop Uric Acid † formula :

“ Like quercetin , luteolin is a flavonoid , plant-derived compound with powerful antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity . † Recently , a human interventional trial demonstrated remarkable lowering of markers of inflammation ( Il-6 and TNF-alpha ) in subjects treated with this natural plant compound . Even more exciting is the emerging research evaluating luteolin ’ s effectiveness in terms of lowering uric acid . In this regard , luteolin is even more powerful than quercetin . In fact , luteolin ’ s ability to lower uric acid , may be comparable to a drug commonly used to treat gout .” †
