Because the content of quercetin in different foods is quite different, the daily intake of quercetin varies greatly according to different people's eating habits. Previous surveys of Dutch people found that they all eat according to their own preferences.

Therefore, if you want to supplement quercetin, you can eat more foods rich in quercetin every day. In addition, Chinese cabbage, celery, tomatoes, cauliflower, radish, spinach, yam, onion and so on.
