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

I really do think this product works for some people, but it gave me some weird side effects. Perhaps I had a weird reaction to it. Every time I took it, my nose swelled really badly. At first I thought I was getting sick, but I realized it would clear up once it was out of my system. Then I experienced really bad acid reflux from it. I really wanted it to work, but it’s not for me.

I developed chronic sinusitis due to a Eustachian tube dysfunction caused by allergies, Not that my nose seemed to be clogged up I didnt notice any clogging in my sinuses but my ears would feel full and my hearing would be muffled. The past few years I would constantly end up at the doctors office to get antibiotics and when my ears would be full they told me I had a dysfunctional Eustachian tube and I had no clue what was causing it. But antihistamines would help subside the symptoms causing me to think it might be inflammation. Long story short knowing the side effects of taking antibiotics frequently and feeling weighed down from taking allergy pills, even on daytime medication. I started looking for alternative solutions and after reading all the reviews on this product I gave it a try and these past few months have been great. No more sinusitis no more clogged ears. If I feel like my nose is starting to clog up even from a cold, I take the product and my sinus is clear. No more nasal sprays (steroid). I have also sent my sister a bottle. She has pollen allergies and mild food allergies. When she eats certain foods like tomatoes, pineapple, melons and certain other vegetables or fruit, the inside of her mouth would get irritated and/or she would produce a lot of mucus so she would have to avoid eating too much or not eat them, even though she loved them. This summer she enjoyed all the vegetables and fruit she wanted with out any problems. She was so grateful that she could enjoy these food again,she kept thanking me over and over again every time we spoke on the phone. While I do not encourage anybody with a deadly allergy to try what my sister did. She really seems to be enjoying this spring and summer better than the past years. She is also seeing a difference with her pollen allergy too. Now I have to tell you that I started the Quercetin and Bromelain regimen with another product Doctors Best Quercetin/Bromelain Capsules At first before full blown pollen season for me set in, it was working wonderfully but once it hit high pollen season the effect wore off quickly and I did not want to take more than the recommended dosage because of side effects. So I switched over to this brand (Quercetin 800mg Bromelain165 mg per serving) that had a different dosage than the other brand Doctors Best (Quercetin 500mg Bromelain 250 mg per serving) This worked out great for me since I was able to get more of the Quercetins natural antihistamine properties and less of the Bromelain. My life is so much better with out the frequent sinusitis or grogginess from the allergy medicines. Since this information is not on the bottle I think people should know. After doing some research I found out, people with kidney problems should not use this product. And in some cases taking 1g of Bromelain have led to kidney damage. So please use the supplement as directed, or if you use other supplements which include Bromelain be careful not to over dose. Also long term usage of Bromelain has not been tested so they do recommend taking breaks. High doses of Quercetin have also lead to kidney damage and it is also suggested to take periods of breaks after 12 weeks. Since if taken longer, the risks are unknown. Update. Another happy result from my sister. She has allergies to dogs so she could not pet her dog for long periods, because she would break into hives. The other day she realized she wasnt getting anymore hives from petting her dog. She even slept with her with out having any problems. Needless to say her dog was also so happy to be able to cuddle with her again.

Helped with inflammatory issue’s.

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.

Not much to review.. works for me....

I have IC and I have tried so many supplements for my symptoms. I started this recently with other supplements I take and … I think it’s helping like I haven’t had relief like this before. I hope it continues to help

I’ve used this product along with Co-Q10 and some other supplements as an anti aging regimen. Also I was dating a much younger woman, so I wanted to maximize performance ;). However, I recently had a first-ever hives outbreak. Dr. prescribed steroids, zero impact. Read online studies showing Quercitin at higher doses combined with antihistames helped accelerate elimination of hives. So far, seems like on the mend, we will see. NOW brand is a great value, and was first supplement company to be certified by UL as authentic. Note most other supplements come from China, from uncertified brands, so do we really have any idea that we’re getting what we’re paying for?

I regularly got sinus infections a few times a year requiring multiple prescriptions. As someone who tries to find alternatives to conventional medicine, I knew there had to be something to help with my sinus infections. Quercetin with bromelain it is! My sinus infections are gone and I haven’t had one for over 7 years now. I do live in an area where the weather can change quickly, and I do have a day here and there where the pressure change gets the better of me and I feel sinus pressure and get a headache. I take another quercetin and it helps. I take 2x a day every day of the year except for above situations where I take a third pill. As with any natural supplement, you must take on a regular basis and be patient when starting out. As most of us know, there is no magic pill, but this one comes close working with some the nutritional choices I make. This is THE brand I always purchase. Hope it helps you with your sinus issues!

TLDR: this stuff is a miracle. This is going to be a long review. Ive had severe TMJD pain for the last 5+ years. I had mostly been able to deal with it with ibuprophen. Last year I randomly became allergic to IBUprophen and my Dr. has prescribed me multiple pain relievers, muscle relaxants etc... Ultimately we settled on fioricet. Between that and regular tylenol, the rebound headaches have been absolutely horrible. If I take nothing I end up with a feeling that someone is stabbing me in the ear with a pencil that radiates up the side of my face and head and makes it virtually impossible to get out of bed. I recently had a CT scan that revealed I have major sinus inflammation as well, though I dont generally feel congested at all. After a little research I decided to try this product. Ive only been taking it a few days but cannot express the relief it has given me. Ive only had to take Tylenol once in the last two days and havent had to take the fioricet at all. Pain medication is something I have relied on taking heavily multiple times a day for over five years. I havent been able to go a day without it. This is a huge improvement for me. I wanted to get the word out there in case someone else can benefit from this like I have so far. Will update if necessary any changes in improvement. So far I am highly satisfied.

The price was right for something I needed.
