Obesity Fight: Tiny Quercetin Boosts Health in Rats
Sunday, March 22, 2026
However, they made the fat levels in the blood better and kept liver tissue looking normal.
The nano form even raised total protein, which is good for overall health.
In the obese rats, both quercetin and nanoquercetin helped them lose weight and lowered bad fats.
They also fixed DNA damage and increased a healthy hormone called adiponectin while lowering the bad hormone leptin.
Nanoquercetin had stronger effects, especially in protecting liver and pancreas cells from damage.
These findings suggest that quercetin, particularly the nano form, could be a safe way to fight obesity by acting on many parts of the body.
More studies in humans are needed to confirm these promising results.
