Additional Information

This terrific product contains quercetin, a natural anti-inflammatory. Quercetin has been the subject of many studies. It can decrease allergic reactions by several mechanisms. First, it helps to stabilize mast cells and basophils and inhibits their degranulation and subsequent release of histamine and other inflammatory chemicals. Quercetin also inhibits some inflammatory enzymes, such as lipid peroxidases (oxidation caused by free radicals), and decreases leukotriene (another inflammatory molecule) formation. Thus, quercetin may be helpful not only with allergies, but with all kinds of inflammatory responses, such as injury, bursitis, asthma, and rheumatoid arthritis.

Quercetin is one of the families of bioflavonoids. Flavonoids are antioxidant substances found in foods containing vitamin C. These nutrients work to keep capillary blood vessels strong and to reduce vascular fragility and subsequent bleeding and bruising, as well as to lower the microtrauma of tissue injuries. They have been used successfully in supporting the reduction of injury and bruising in athletes, and in speeding the recovery of acutely injured athletes and other performers. Some bioflavonoids apparently act as immune supporters, antioxidants, and detoxifiers. There are a number of other uses of these interesting substances.

As an anti-inflammatory, quercetin and other bioflavonoids work to open up the nasal and respiratory passages, thereby making it easier to breathe and reduce sinus problems—one of the major complaints associated with allergy suffering.

Bioflavonoids, and quercetin in particular, lower the IGE response to histamines. This reduces the inflammatory cascade associated with such reactions. Quercetin’s primary use is for the relief of allergies and inflammation. In scientific experiments, it was found to be an effective inhibitor of histamine release from mast cells—the cause of allergic reactions. Preventing this reaction helps mitigate the suffering that comes with allergy season, from watery itchy eyes, to runny nose and other problems.

One of those amino acids may increase the body’s utilization of oxygen. Arginine is a precursor to nitric oxide, which the body uses to keep blood vessels dilated, allowing the heart to receive adequate oxygen. The others, L-Taurine and L-Glycine aid in the absorption of non-essential amino acids and nutrients. Together they create a friendly environment for NTFactor®, bioflavonoids, and amino acids to be readily absorbed.

We feel BreatheClear is one of the best nutritional products around for environmental allergies and asthma. It can be taken along with medications, and has the added bonus of containing NTFactor®.

In multiple studies, NTFactor® has been proven to defeat the fatigue that is often associated with allergies*. Fatigue is a result of damage to the mitochondria caused by free radicals, which in turn causes Reactive Oxidative Stress (ROS). ROS diminishes the ability of the body to absorb and utilize oxygen, thus causing fatigue. NTFactor® repairs and replaces these damaged cell membranes with fresh healthy ones* by using Lipid Replacement Therapy (LRT). LRT allows the body to make better use of the available oxygen, reducing ROS. This allows for less fatigue and the ability to absorb and utilize the oxygen in your system*. You can even supplement BreatheClear with additional NTFactor® to beat back the fatigue associated with allergies and asthma*.

BreatheClear with NTFactor® is one of our premier products, offering the best formulation available for both tackling allergies and reducing free radical damage*. As a combination of bioflavonoids and amino acids, along with NTFactor® , it provides everything you need to beat allergy season before it beats you.
