1. Charakterystyka żywności / składnika

The food constituent that is the subject of the health claims is quercetin.
Quercetin [2-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)-3,5,7-trihydroxy-4H-chromen-4-one] is a flavonol naturally present in onions and to a lesser extent in French beans, broad beans, apples, apricots, cherries, grapes, wine, fruit juices, black tea and green tea. Quercetin is measurable in foods by established methods.
The Panel considers that the food constituent, quercetin, which is the subject of the health claims, is sufficiently characterised.
